Difference between Magnocellular cell and Visual system

Magnocellular cell vs. Visual system

Magnocellular cells, also called M-cells, are neurons located within the Adina magnocellular layer of the lateral geniculate nucleus of the thalamus. The visual system is the part of the central nervous system which gives organisms the ability to process visual detail, as well as enabling the formation of several non-image photo response functions.

Similarities between Magnocellular cell and Visual system

Magnocellular cell and Visual system have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Intraparietal sulcus, Lateral geniculate nucleus, Neuron, Retina, Saccade, Thalamus, Two-streams hypothesis, Visual cortex, Visual perception.

Intraparietal sulcus

The intraparietal sulcus (IPS) is located on the lateral surface of the parietal lobe, and consists of an oblique and a horizontal portion.

Lateral geniculate nucleus

The lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN; also called the lateral geniculate body or lateral geniculate complex) is a relay center in the thalamus for the visual pathway.

Neuron

A neuron, also known as a neurone (British spelling) and nerve cell, is an electrically excitable cell that receives, processes, and transmits information through electrical and chemical signals.

Retina

The retina is the innermost, light-sensitive "coat", or layer, of shell tissue of the eye of most vertebrates and some molluscs.

Saccade

A saccade (French for jerk) is a quick, simultaneous movement of both eyes between two or more phases of fixation in the same direction.

Thalamus

The thalamus (from Greek θάλαμος, "chamber") is the large mass of gray matter in the dorsal part of the diencephalon of the brain with several functions such as relaying of sensory signals, including motor signals, to the cerebral cortex, and the regulation of consciousness, sleep, and alertness.

Two-streams hypothesis

The two-streams hypothesis is a widely accepted and influential model of the neural processing of vision as well as hearing.

Visual cortex

The visual cortex of the brain is a part of the cerebral cortex that processes visual information.

Visual perception

Visual perception is the ability to interpret the surrounding environment using light in the visible spectrum reflected by the objects in the environment.

Magnocellular cell and Visual system Comparison

Magnocellular cell has 26 relations, while Visual system has 165. As they have in common 9, the Jaccard index is 4.71% = 9 / (26 + 165).
