The part of the eye which enables us to see colour are the millions of cones. Rods, on the other hand, enable night vision, but can only help one see black, white and shades of grey.

Part of the eye responsible for night vission?
The photoreceptors commonly referred to as "Rods", which are found in the retina, are responsible for night vision. (scotopic vision) "Cones" are responsible for colored vision with brighter light conditions. (photopic vision)
What part of the eye responds to light of different color producing color vision?
The cone cells on the retina.
What part of the eye is responible for color?
Assuming you mean the part of the eye responsible for seeing color... There are two types of photoreceptors in the retina: rods and cones. The cones are responsible for seeing color. (The easy way to remember it is cones and color start with c.)
What muscle is responsible for eye accommodation of near and distal vision?
The ciliary muscle is responsible for eye accommodation for near and far vision. It accomplishes this task by changing the shape of the lens.
Are rods and cones alike?
cones are the part of the eye that let you see color, on mythbusters they showed rods take part in our night vision
What is color vision?
That part of the vision that is perceived by the cones of the eye. Rods detect black and white.

Function of rod and con cells?
Rods and cones are parts of the eye responsible for vision. Rods take in low light, while cones allow the eye to see in color.
What contains sensory receptors for vision in the eye?
Retina in the eye contains sensory cells. Retina has got rods and cones. Cones are responsible for colour vision. Rods are responsible for vision in less amount of light.
What muscle is responsible for eye accommodation of near and distal vision?
The ciliary muscle is responsible for eye accommodation for near and far vision. It accomplishes this task by changing the shape of the lens.

What is different about the eyes of a color blind person?
If your color blindness is genetic (as opposed to having been caused by trauma or neurological issues), the only part of the eye 'affected' would be the cones, that part of the eye responsible for discerning color.
Does color effect peripheral vision?
Peripheral vision results from images near the edge of the retina. In this part of the eye, there are very few cones and almost all rods. Peripheral vision is essentially black and white and thus unaffected by color.

Eye defect that causes color-deficient vision?
There are a wide variety of eye defects that can potentially cause color-deficient vision. The most common one is color blindness, which is a sex-linked genetic trait.
