Answer:

E. orderly mapping of the world in the LGN and visual cortex.

Explanation:

Topographic maps consisted of collection of neurons in the brain organized to map the receptor sheet or muscles within subcortical and cortical areas. In this type of mapping, the ganglionic nerve cells of retina organize them towards the lateral geniculate nucleus situated in the thalamus; from where this retinographic map extends to the primary visual cortex. The adjacent neurons in the lateral geniculate nucleus and primary visual cortex then mirror  the map presenting spots on retina. This orderly projection of world and what is seen on the retina is known as topographic mapping.
