Do rods see color, or are they only sensitive to light intensity?
Rods in the eye are sensitive to light intensity but do not see color. They are responsible for vision in low light conditions.
How can infrared be detected if cannot be seen?
It's detected by means of a camera that is sensitive to infra-red light. Visible light forms only a tiny portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Cones are sensitive to what color light?
Red, green, and blue light. Rods are only sensitive to black and white.
Rods are less light sensative and more color sensitive than are cones?
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.
What color are your eyes most sensitive to?
Yellowish-greenish light.
Are rods and cones sensitive to light?
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.
What are ultraviolet colors?
"Color" is the sensation that a light produces in your eye and your brain. Ultraviolet light is not detected by your eye, so there's no such thing as its color.
What cells in the retina are primarily responsible for night vision as opposed to day vision?
Rod cells are primarily responsible for night vision, as they are more sensitive to low light levels and can detect dim light. Cone cells, on the other hand, are responsible for day vision and are less sensitive to light but can detect color and high levels of light.
What light sensitive cells in the eye detct color?
The cones, located in the retina, detect color.
What light-sensitive cells in the eye detect light and dark but not color?
Rods are for seeing light and dark, cones are for seeing color.
A failure of the red-sensitive nerves in the eye to respond to respond to light properly causes?
Color blindness is the failure of the red sensitive nerves in the eye that don't respond to light properly.
