What is the arrangement of neuron populations from the pigmented epithelial layer to the vitreous humor in the neural layer?
Ganglion cells, bipolar cells, photoreceptors.
Layer of nerve tissue made up of sensory neurons that respond to light?
The retina is the layer of nerve tissue in the back of the eye that contains sensory neurons called photoreceptors. These photoreceptors, specifically rods and cones, respond to light and convert it into electrical signals, which are then transmitted to the brain via the optic nerve, allowing us to perceive visual information.
Which structure of the eye contains the photoreceptors?
no. they are called eyes. photoreceptors are cells within the eye that respond to light such as cones and rods.
What are the two of photoreceptors?
rods and cones
What are the photoreceptors that do not distinguish different colors?
rods
The layer of the vertebrate eye where photoreceptors are located is the?
retina
The layer of photoreceptors and neurons at the back of the eye is called the?
retina
The layer of the eye where photoreceptors are located?
The transparent inner neural layer of the RETINA
What is the arrangement of neuron populations from the pigmented epithelial layer to the vitreous humor in the neural layer?
Ganglion cells, bipolar cells, photoreceptors.
Does light pass through the entire thickness of the neural layer of the retina to excite the photoreceptors?
true
What is the innermost layer of the eye called?
The inner rear surface of the eye which contains photoreceptors it called the retina.
What are the 2 types of photoreceptors?
On-center photoreceptors and Off-center photoreceptors.
What are photoreceptors and their functions?
Photoreceptors sense light. They are what allows you to see.
