There are ganglion cells in the pigeon retina that respond selectively, some to any edge moving in a particcular direction only, others to any vertically moving horizontal edge. This selective response to a specific stimulus arises from the selective sensitivity of each neuron to a particular spatiotemporal configuration in its afferent influences, and is independent of specific pathways.
鸽子视网膜中存在神经节细胞,它们具有选择性反应,有些仅对沿特定方向移动的任何边缘做出反应,另一些则对任何垂直移动的水平边缘做出反应。这种对特定刺激的选择性反应源于每个神经元对其传入影响中特定时空配置的选择性敏感性,并且与特定路径无关。
