Cones help you see color and detail; rods see in black and white and detect movement in your peripheral vision.
At the back of the eyeball, comprising the retina.
retina
Photoreceptor cells are located behind the retina of the eye. This is where the eye exchanges cells and helps our vision to see things the way that they are. These cells can become damaged, which can cause changes in eyesight.
Photoreceptor cells and Rod cells are the more known ones. These allow you to see color.
This implies that the subject is in a dark room.
Retina of the eye
True the Photoreceptor sensory cilia are the light sensitive parts of the rods and cones in the eye's retina

Qustion:The correct pathway for impulses leaving the retina? My answer: photoreceptors, ganglion cells, bipolar cells, and optic nerve.
Simply explained, the light sensitive cells inside the eye are located on the retina. There are two different types of photoreceptor cells: rods, which read light intensity or back and white; and cones which are color sensitive. Both rod and cone cells are then connected to ganglion cells. These cells then bundle into the optic nerve which carries the signals from the photoreceptor cells into the brain. Also, the photoreceptor cells are the furthest layer form the front of the eye and are closest to the back wall or choroid layer of the retina.
Cone cells, or cones, are photoreceptor cells in the retina of the eye which function best in relatively bright light. The cone cells gradually become sparser towards the periphery of the retina.
Cone cells, or cones, are one of the two types of photoreceptor cells that are in the retina of the eye which are responsible for color vision as well as eye color sensitivity; they function best in relatively bright light, as opposed to rod cells that work better in dim light.
Cones are a special type of photoreceptor cell in the retina that allow you to see brighter light than "rods" (a different type of photoreceptor cell), particularly to see color. The brain interprets the response of cones to the different wavelengths of light in order to perceive color in this way.
