Subject field(s)
  • The Eye
CONT

A few days later the axons arising from both eyes acquire a hairy appearance: they have short side branches along their entire length. The presence of side branches at this age implies that the inputs from both eyes mix with one another. In other words, the neural regions have yet to take on the adult structure, in which each eye has its own specific regions.

Domaine(s)
  • Oeil
CONT

Quelques jours plus tard, les axones issus des deux yeux deviennent poilus : de courtes ramifications latérales apparaissent sur toute leur longueur. Ces ramifications latérales sont le signe que les voies d'entrée des deux yeux se mélangent et que les aires neuronales n'ont pas encore leur structure adulte.

CONT

Les terminaisons se ramifient, tandis que disparaissent les branches latérales.
