The blind spot
The part of the eye that contains rods and cones is the retina. Rods are responsible for detecting light, while cones are responsible for perceiving color. Together, they help provide vision and send visual information to the brain for processing.
Cones help you see color and detail; rods see in black and white and detect movement in your peripheral vision.
In the skin, neurons that detect stimuli are called mechanoreceptors for touch, nociceptors for pain, and thermoreceptors for temperature. In the eyes, neurons that detect light stimuli are called photoreceptors, specifically rods and cones located in the retina.
Rods and cones are in the sensory components in the retina of the eye. They are essential to the sense of sight.
Rods and cones are located in the retina of the eye. There are more rods than cones, and rods are involved with seeing at night or in low light situations.

Retina which has rods and cones
No. It is the retina at the back of the eyeball that has the cones and rods that receive stimulus from light and send it to the brain for processing into visual images.
The cones in the retina of the eye are responsible for detecting and perceiving color. There are three types of cones that respond to different wavelengths of light (red, green, and blue), and the brain processes the signals from these cones to create the perception of color.
The layer of photoreceptors is called the retina. It is located at the back of the eye and contains two types of photoreceptor cells: rods, which are responsible for vision in low light conditions, and cones, which are responsible for color vision and detecting fine details.
In the eyes, light energy is converted into electrical signals by photoreceptor cells (rods and cones) in the retina. These electrical signals are then transferred to the brain through the optic nerve, where they are interpreted as visual information.
