Activity 46.2 Quiz
Refer to the table below.
The data in the table were collected as an electrode recorded action potential responses from five individual ganglia randomly selected in the visual cortex of a rat. Bars of light were rotated at various angles until the greatest action potential occurred in each ganglion. Which statement represents an inference that can be made from these data?
