Rods and cones are in the sensory components in the retina of the eye. They are essential to the sense of sight.
Retina contains visual receptors called rods and cones
optic disk
retina
The eye's visual receptors reside within the retina. The eye's visual receptors consist of four different types of receptors including rods, blue cones, red cones and green cones.
Light receptors called rods and cones are found in the retina of the eye. Rods are resposible for discerning light as blackand white and the cones colour.
cones
Retina in the eye contains sensory cells. Retina has got rods and cones. Cones are responsible for colour vision. Rods are responsible for vision in less amount of light.
A spot just above the axis of the eyeball known as the yellow spot contains cones
Light receptors are found in the eye. There are two types of receptors; rods and cones. Rods produce the black and white pigments and the Cones produce the color pigments.
The two kinds of receptor in the eye are rods and cones. Rods only see in black and white but are very light sensitive (that's why you see in black and white when it is almost dark) and cones which allow you to see in colour.
An eye. Rods and cones detect light and colour.
Photoreceptors - rods and cones.
There are two types of visual receptors (photoreceptors) in the retina:1. Cones = photoreceptors for color vision; produce sharp images.2. Rods = photoreceptors for night vision; produce silhouettes of imagesThey are named for their shapes.
Cells in the the retina called cones (for colour perception and in greatest numbers in the macula) and rods (for black and white).
The retina of the eye which is the lining inside the eyeball contains rods and cones, which are the photoreceptors providing vision in mammals. not all mammals have both types of receptors. Rods provide black and white vision and allow for lower light, while cones are for color.
