Rods are less light sensative and more color sensitive than are cones?

Cones are sensitive to what color light?
Red, green, and blue light. Rods are only sensitive to black and white.
What color are your eyes most sensitive to?
Yellowish-greenish light.
Are rods and cones sensitive to light?

A failure of the red-sensitive nerves in the eye to respond to respond to light properly causes?
Color blindness is the failure of the red sensitive nerves in the eye that don't respond to light properly.
What eye cell does not detect color?
The rods in the retina of the eyes are sensitive to low levels of light and movement. The cones are the ones that are sensitive to color and intensity, so the rods do not see color.
What does a failure of the red sensitive nerves in the eye to respond to light properly cause?
