One of the objects in your visual field is a ball that is round, red, and moving. Describe the steps involved in being able to see the ball and identify it as a ball that is round, red, and moving. In other words, describe the pathway through the visual system (the eye, the optic nerve, and the parts of the brain) that the information travels before you can identify the object as a ball that is round, red, and moving.

The zika virus was first identified in Uganda in 1947. The virus is transmitted from person to person by a bite from a mosquito. It is commonly carried by the Aedes mosquito which is prevalent throughout Central Africa. The virus has more recently spread to the Americas (South, Central, and now North) and is expected to spread to Europe. There is a concern that the virus may reach epidemic proportions. Zika virus is related to yellow and dengue fever. Common symptoms are low grade fever and a distinctive skin rash and other symptoms include vomiting, headache, and muscle and/or joint pain. Pregnant women should avoid traveling to areas known to have zika virus present because the virus is known to cause microcephaly and developmental difficulties related to the central nervous system.
