What is the part of the eye that converts light energy to electricity into electrical signals?

First you must understand how light is transferred into an image by the eye. Located in the retina at the back of the eye are millions of photoreceptors. The way I understand them to work is they are constantly blocking any impules from themselves to the next connection, ganglions. When light hits these potoreceptors, the impulse is released, travels through the ganglion, and then is transmitted to the actual optic nerve.
So according to this question, the photoreceptors are the trigger of light to impulse, but the answer to your question is the ganglion that transmitts the impulse to the optic nerve.

What instrument converts electrical energy to sound or image signals in a radio or television?
Loudspeakers and earphones convert electrical energy to sound energy. LCD monitors, plasma screens, and CRTs make images out of electrical signals.
What energy does a generator use?
Generator converts mechanical to electrical energy. It is used to produce electricity.
Converts mechanical energy into electrical energy?
In electricity generation, an electric generator is a device that converts mechanical energy to electrical energy. A generator forces electric current to flow through an external circuit.
What is the instrument in solar panels that converts light energy to electrical energy?
The instrument that converts light into electricity is called a Photovoltiac. I hope this answers your question.
What converts mechnical energy to electrical energy?
An alternator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.
What is the source of electricity that converts chemical energy into electrical energy?
battery
For radio broadcasts sound signals are converted to?
For radio broadcasting, sound waves are converted to electrical waves that are further transmitted. This transformation is done by a device called a transducer, which converts physical parameters into an electrical form (signals).

What converts electrical energy to machanical energy?
A motor. If electricity passes through it, the motor rotates(kinetic/potential energy)
What converts machanical energy to electrical energy?
A motor. If electricity passes through it, the motor rotates(kinetic/potential energy)
Is it true that solar panels are used to generate electricity?
YES. because it converts the solar energy into electrical energy
What converts mechnical energy to electrical energy?
An alternator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.
What are the difference between dynamo and motor?
A dynamo takes in motion and outputs electricity and a motor takes in electricity and outputs motion. A dynamo converts mechanical energy to electric energy while a motor converts electrical energy to mechanical energy.
What is a machine that converts electricity to mechanical energy?
That's called an electric motor.
