Nerves that transmits message from the rods and cones?
The nerves that transmit messages from the rods and cones are called optic nerves. Rods and cones are specialized cells in the retina of the eye that detect light and convert it into electrical signals. These signals are then transmitted through the optic nerves to the brain, where they are processed and interpreted as visual information.
Where are sensory nerves called rods and cones found?
Sensory nerve cells called rods and cones are found in the Retina.
The part of the eye with rods and cones in it?
Rods and cones are inside a layer of the eyeball called the retina.
Rods and cones inside the eyeball send visual signals to what lobe of the brain?
Occipital lobe
The brain region receives Visual impulses?
the eye receives visual images from our surroundings, these images are received by the cones and rods which are on the retina which is found in the eye, the images are translated (by the cones and rods) and sent as impulses to the brain through the optic nerve, the brain is then able to inter-prate these impulses into images we see.
How do you see colors with your eyes?
In the back of your eyeball is an area called the retina, which is where light is converted into nerve signals and transmitted to your brain. The retina is made up of two different sensors- rods and cones. Cones are the named thus for their shape. They are responsible for distinguishing different wavelengths of light and interpreting them into a nerve signal. The signal is carried to the back of your brain (the occipital lobe) where these signals are interpreted by you as a color. Those who are colorblind either lack cones or have some deficiency related to their cone sensors.
How does the brain interpret the signals from rods and cones?
You have to see the brain like a ant
How does your eyes visualize objects?
Light from the object passes into your eye and is focussed by the lens in it onto a screen at the back called the retina. This retina is composed of many light sensitive cells, known as rods and cones, which send signals down nerves to the brain where the signal is registered as an image.
Rods and cones are found in the .?
Rods and cones are found in the retina at the back of the eye. They are directly connected to nerve cells that lead into the brain.
What are the functions of the rods and cones?
Rods and cones detect/sense light coming in to make colors. Your brain then converts it to an image.
The signals generated by the rods and cones are carried to your brain by the?
The Optic Nerve
What cause colors to separate?
Reflection or RefractionWhen light strikes a surface it's frequency are changed and when it strikes the rods and cones in our eyes ,they send a signal to our brain according to which our brain responds......When light strikes a surface ,it changes it's frequency and when the light is reflected from that surface to human eyes ,the rod cells and cone cells inside which rodopsin and eyedopsin is present ,get certan signal from that light according to which our brain interprets different colors.

How do your eyes see colors?
There are photocells in your retina called rods and cones. Cones are divided into three categories, red, blue and green which all have different pigments (pigments are a type of molecule that absorb light). Green cones absorb green light, blue absorb blue. When light is absorbed it transfers energy which causes the pigment to break down. When red light hits your retina the pigment in the red cones breaks down. This sends an electrical pulse to the nerve connected to those photocells. The nerve carries the signal to the brain where the impulse is translated. The rods are not involved in colour vision but can operate at much lower light intensities than cones, but they can only see in black and white. Rods are what you use for seeing when it is very dark.
What plants produce seeds in their cones?
They are called conifers, or having cones.
Is there pollen cones and seed cones on the same trees?
Yes, in case of Pinus pollen producing cones (male cones) and seed producing cones (female cones) are present on the same plant. Such plants are called monoecious.
Why can't you see an image hitting the blind spot?
The blind spot is the point on the retina where there are no receivers i.e. no cones or rods, and the reason there are no cones or rods is because this spot is where the opic nerve teminates in the retina. No receivers, no signal to the brain.
