Light
On-center photoreceptors and Off-center photoreceptors.
Photoreceptors sense light. They are what allows you to see.
no. they are called eyes. photoreceptors are cells within the eye that respond to light such as cones and rods.
The retina in the eye contains millions of photoreceptors known as rods and cones. These photoreceptors are responsible for converting light into electrical signals that the brain can interpret as vision.

The special sense that relies on photoreceptors is vision. Photoreceptors in the retina of the eye, called rods and cones, help convert light into electrical signals that the brain interprets as images.
Light
Photoreceptors can respond to light in milliseconds. Upon exposure to light, photoreceptors quickly undergo a series of biochemical reactions that lead to changes in their membrane potential, triggering neural signals to be sent to the brain.

Retina.
The retina, which is located on the inner posterior portion of the eye, contains photoreceptors called rods and cones. These photoreceptors are responsible for detecting and converting light into electrical signals that are then sent to the brain for visual processing.
