What is the bent or kinked form of retinal is combined with a protein called?
To form the visual pigment called
Rhodopsin is made of opsin and what else?
Rhodopsin is a membrane protein found in the photoreceptor cells of the retina Rhodopsin is made up of the protein opsin and 11-cisretinal.
What is the opsin protein?
The opsin protein is part of a superfamily of G-protein coupled receptors. Each protein in this family has seven transmembrane domains and is found within the plasma membrane. The genome of seeing animals contain various opsin genes. Each have different properites - the different rhodopsins in which they are found can capture light in different wavelengths.
What happens when rhodopsin in the retina of the eye is exposed to a bright light?
When Rhodopsin in the retina of the eye is exposed to a bright light, the Rhodopsin breaks down into Retinal and Opsin, allowing us to see in many different ranges of light and darkness.rhodopsin molecules break down into molecules of a colorless protein called opsin and a yellowish organic molecule called retainal synthesized from vitamin A
What is bleaching rhodopsin?
Rhodopsin is an organic compound called a Visual Pigment. The absorption of lights by visual pigments is the crucial first step in the process of photoreception. In the presence of light, the protein opsin is activated allowing retinal to bind to its active site (retinal synthesized with vitamin A). The retinal and opsin protein complex is thus known as rhodopsin. When the pigment absorbs a photon, the shape of the protein changes shape and bleaching separation occurs. Retinal must be restored in presence of ATP and Opsin must be reactivated in order for the cycle to repeat (this typically takes 30 minutes).

What are the steps in photo reception?
A photon strikes a rhodospin molecule in the membrane disk and when the photon is absorbed a change in the retinal component takes place which activates opsin. Then bleaching occurs in which rhodopsin breaks down into retinal and opsin. The retinal has to be converted back to its original shape in order to recomibine with opsin, which occurs by ATP. Since that happens recovery has to happen where opsin and retinal become one again to recombine into rhodospin in which the arrival of that photon produces an actional potential and begins an impulse along the optic nerve. :)

What happens when you save saints row 2 while the cheats are enabled or activated?
If you enable or activate cheats on saints row 2 and save achievements/trophys cannot be earned. If you dont save while you activated cheats then nothing happens.
What are the two components into which rhodopsin breaks down when light strikes it?
retinol and opsin
