What else can I help you with?
The light sensitive portion of the eye containing rods and cones is called the?
retina
Which type of photoreceptor, rods or cones, is more sensitive to light?
Cones are less sensitive to light than rods.
What are rods in the eye sensitive to?
The rods (themselves) are sensitive to light The cones are sensitive to colour
Which type of photoreceptor cells, cones or rods, are more sensitive to light?
Rods are more sensitive to light than cones.
What is the name of the light sensitives cells within the eye?
There are two types called rods, which a simply sensitive to light and dark, and cones which are sensitive to colours. Both types are found on the retina but the rods dipsersed evenly over the surface whereas cones are concentrated on an area called the fovea.
Nerve tissue containing rods and cones?
Rods and cones are nerve tissue contained in the retina.
Are rods more sensitive to light than cones in the human eye?
Yes, rods are more sensitive to light than cones in the human eye.
Are rods and cones sensitive to light?
Both rods and cones are light receptors. Rods are connected many to onr neuron, and are good for detecting low-light and movement, but not color. Cones are one to a neuron and detect color. Both are present in most if not all mammals and avians.
Rods and cones are the light-sensitive cells on the?
the retina
What do rods eye do?
The rods in human eyes are sensitive (photoreceptive) to light and dark, as opposed to the cones which are sensitive to colour.
How do rods and cones differ in their sensitivity to light, and what role do cones play in color vision despite being less sensitive to light than rods?
Rods are more sensitive to light than cones, but cones are responsible for color vision. Cones are less sensitive to light but can detect different colors due to their three types that respond to different wavelengths of light.
Layers containing the rods and cones?
