	Rods are found mostly on the periphery of the retina
	Cones provide the greatest visual acuity

	There are more cones than rods

Please answer all questions.

Answer 1

1. The sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves release neurotransmitters. Primarily norepinephrine and epinephrine for the sympathetic nervous system and acetylcholine for the parasympathetic nervous system. The neurotransmitter at the effector organ in the sympathetic division of the ANS is norepinephrine.

2. Axon from the third order neuron project from the thalamus to the primary somatosensory cortex of the cerebrum. Third-order neurons connect the thalamus with the cerebrum. True

3. Eduardo's father suffers a stroke that leaves him partially paralyzed on his right side. Left frontal lobe is a likely location for his stroke.

4. Greatest visual acuity is provided by fovea. The false statement is cones provides greatest visual acuity.
