The cells in the retina of the eye that detect light are called what?
Rods are sensitive to absence of light cos they are responsible for night vision or black and white vision while cones are sensitive to presence of light cos they are responsible for colour vision
Do cones function in bright light?
Cones are responsible for photopic vision, meaning they are sensitive to color and provide all high definition vision. They are specifically sensitive to 3 colors of light; Red Green and Blue.
What are light sensitive cells that respond to dim light?
rods are our or dim light and peripheral vision receptors
What houses light sensitive cells?
Aside from eyes, which contain rods for black and white vision and coves for color vision, the light receptors are filled with an pigment/enzyme called rhodopsin, which is light sensitive somewhat in the manner of chlorophyll.
How is the movement of leaves of the sensitive plant different from the movement of a shoot towards light?
movement in sensitive plants : d movement in sensitive plant leaves takes place in response to touch stimulus.eg:touch-me-not plant movement of a shoot towards light: When sunlight/light falls from 1 direction one shoot,d growth hormone auxin diffuses towards the shady side of shoot.this increased concentration of auxin stimulates the cells 2 grow longer on the shaded side of the shoot.dis enhanced growth 1 side cause bending of shoot 2wards light
What kind of vision do jellyfish have?
Jellyfish do not have any vision. They have light sensitive organs, which informs them where light is, but cannot see.

What are light sensitive cells that respond to dim light?
rods are our or dim light and peripheral vision receptors
Is the rod sensitive to light?
Rods are sensitive to light and cones are sensitive to the different wavelengths of light. There are different pigments in the three different types of cones to detect red, green, and blue wavelengths of light. (referred to as trichromatic vision)
What houses light sensitive cells?
Aside from eyes, which contain rods for black and white vision and coves for color vision, the light receptors are filled with an pigment/enzyme called rhodopsin, which is light sensitive somewhat in the manner of chlorophyll.
How do rods and cones differ functionally?
Rods: dim light and peripheral vision receptors, more sensitive to light Cones: operate in bright light and provide high acuity color vision
What are rod shaped and cone shaped cells?
The rods are extremely sensitive to light and are responsible for black and white vision, while the cones are responsible for colour vision.
Does the iris pigmentation affects your vision?
No, normal pigmentation of the iris has no effect on vision which occurs through the un-pigmented pupil. That said people with light eyes are more likely to be photosensitive (sensitive to light).

What is vampire vision?
vampire vision is the vision that vampires have.
Cones are sensitive to what?
Cones are sensitive to color and daylight vision.
