For this project our group has chosen “Fantasy” as our theme. Fantasy refers to a world of imagination filled with creative mental images and uninhibited fancy. These images or visions of fantasy may be distorted faces of reality; or may even be entirely disconnected to the real world. However‚ fantasy is more often than not linked to the real world in a child’s world and a crucial precursor to future cognitive and creative development. It is often observed that young children spontaneously engage

Our simplest words are often the deepest in meaning: birth‚ kiss‚ flight‚ dream. The sculptor Constantin Brancusi spent his life searching for forms as simple and pure as those words—forms that seem to have existed forever‚ outside of time. Born a peasant in a remote village in Romania‚ he spent most of his adult life in Paris‚ where he lived in a single small room adjoining a skylit studio. Upon his death in 1957‚ Brancusi willed the contents of his studio to the French government‚ which eventually

ROD CELLS Rod cells‚ or rods‚ are photoreceptor cells in the retina of the eye that can function in less intense light than the other type of visual photoreceptor‚ cone cells. Rods are concentrated at the outer edges of the retina and are used in peripheral vision. On average‚ there are approximately 125 million rod cells in the human retina.[1] More sensitive than cone cells‚ rod cells are almost entirely responsible for night vision. STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION Rods are a little longer and leaner

Glasses or Contacts Many people have visual aids. This usually means their vision is not twenty-twenty. They wear contacts or glasses; you can choose one or both and get the same clear vision. The cost of glasses or contacts can be expensive especially when you get both‚ and depending on your prescription it can cost even more. However‚ contacts and glasses are quite different from each other. The purpose of this essay is to compare and contrast the differences between contacts and glasses. The

image wherein our brain is tricked into seeing motion – even though there isn’t any. Our visual cortex is the one who is responsible for this‚ we tend to think that it is the picture that’s doing the trick but actually we are the one who’s doing it because our visual cortex is designed to detect and see motion whether we like it or not. In the proceeding experiments I learned that we humans having evolved as visual animals are all hard-wired to notice and be captivated by motion this is what the scientists
