    b. Alex's occipital lobe is artificially stimulated.

    Explanation:

    Alex volunteers for an experiment being conducted by a group of neurosurgeons. As part of the experiment, he is taken to a dark room and a part of his brain is activated with electricity. For a moment, Alex sees flashes of light even though the room is pretty dark because Alex's occipital lobe is artificially stimulated.

    Occipital lobe is one of the four lobs in the cerebral complex of brain. It is related to the visual effects in the brain of the mammal. It is also known as the visual processing center. This is reason why Alex saw flashes even though it was dark.
