the left visual field;
the right visual field;
either the left or right visual fields;
neither the left or right visual fields;
none of the options is correct;

INCORRECT - Information in the left visual field will be processed in the right visual cortex and the right hemisphere controls movement of the left hand not the right. Following disconnection of the hemispheres, the visual information would not be able to cross over from the right to the left hemisphere.
