Cones are sensitive to color and daylight vision.
Cones are less sensitive to light than rods.
Rods are more sensitive to light than cones.
The rods (themselves) are sensitive to light The cones are sensitive to colour
Cones are sensitive to Red light (L cones, 64%) Green light (M cones, 32%) and Blue light (S cones, 2%)
Rods are more sensitive to light than cones, but cones are responsible for color vision. Cones are less sensitive to light but can detect different colors due to their three types that respond to different wavelengths of light.
Yes, rods are more sensitive to light than cones in the human eye.
Rods are more light sensitive compared to cones because they contain a pigment called rhodopsin that is more sensitive to low levels of light. Cones, on the other hand, contain different pigments that are less sensitive to light but are able to detect different colors.
Both rods and cones are light receptors. Rods are connected many to onr neuron, and are good for detecting low-light and movement, but not color. Cones are one to a neuron and detect color. Both are present in most if not all mammals and avians.

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.
Rods are more sensitive to dim light and are responsible for night vision, while cones are more sensitive to color and detail in bright light. Rods contain rhodopsin pigment, which allows them to function well in low light conditions, whereas cones contain different opsins that allow them to perceive color.
