yes but photo-receptors are also further divided into two parts, i.e. rods and cones. Rods respond to the intensity of light and cones respond to colors.

What color would the cell be without the dye?

I think that the cell would be clear. I think you have to use methane blue or die, so that it will die the cell. If it was clear you couldn't see it. I don't think it would really matter what color the die was. It could be purple or red.


What is the most light sensitive receptor cells?

The rods in our eyes are the most light-sensitive receptor cells. They are highly sensitive to low light levels and help us see in dim lighting conditions.


Which type of microscope allows you to see inside the cell (organelles) 3D images or bacteria?

An electron microscope, particularly a transmission electron microscope (TEM), allows you to see inside the cell and view organelles in detail. It provides high magnification and resolution to observe the internal structures of cells. However, bacteria can also be visualized using a light microscope or a scanning electron microscope (SEM).


What are the types of endocytosis?

Endocytosis literally means "in - cell - process" (endo - cyt - osis). And that is just what it is: a process for taking materials into a cell by engulfing them.The cytoskeleton just below the cell membrane forms a part of the cell surface into a cup shape, and the bottom of the cup deepens while the lip of the cup closes all round, until a more or less spherical "bubble" of membrane, a vesicle or vacuole, is pinched off and moves deeper into the cytoplasm.There are two types of endocytosis:pinocytosis (derived from a Greek word for "drinking"), in which a relatively small drop of liquid is taken in by the cell;phagocytosis (from Greek for "eating"), in which something solid is included in the "mouthful".Pinocytosis happens in every cell, and goes on all the time. Receptor-mediated pinocytosis is a particularly efficient form of pinocytosis. A receptor on the surface of the cell binds to a molecule in the tissue fluid, and the complex of binding molecule (ligand) and receptor is ingested. For example, this is how human cells take in the element iron, which is present in the tissue fluid bound to a protein called transferrin.Vesicles formed in endocytosis are coated with the protein clathrin. For more details of the role and recruitment of clathrin see the links below. Phagocytosis includes the ingestion of bacteria by phagocytes, one type of human white blood cell involved in defense against organisms that cause disease. Once inside the phagocyte, the bacteria are destroyed.

What is the receptor cell that detects the presence or absence of light and allows to see dim light?

The receptor cell that detects the presence or absence of light and allows us to see dim light is called a rod cell. Rod cells are responsible for low-light vision and are located in the retina of the eye.


What receptor cells in the eye that works best in bright light and enable you to see color?

cones.

What allows you to see through a slide background or a color?

Transparency


What is make the human eye see?

The receptor cells help us see the color, but light lets us see. Our eye gets the light to the retina and it processes the light to create a image


Does your macula make you see color?

No, it is the cones that are in your retina that allows you to see color. The macula just contains a higher denisty of photoreceptors.


What energy chance happens in your eyes in a light or dark environment?

Your eyes switch receptor cells from mostly cones to rods, which is why you cant see color in the dark.


What type of sensory receptor enables you to see?

photoreceptor

What allows one to see chromosomes?

Microscopes coupled with techniques used to separate them from inside the cell.


What does The sense that allows you to see?

The sense that allows you to see is called vision. It is the ability to interpret light and color through the eyes, which sends signals to the brain for processing and understanding the visual world.


What effect allows you to see better in the dark and makes things seem black and white?

Night vision allows people to see in the dark. Monochrome is the effect of turning pictures into black and white color.
