Rods
While reading, the primary receptors involved are the visual receptors in the eyes, specifically the cones and rods in the retina. Cones enable the perception of color and fine detail, while rods are more sensitive to light and help with low-light vision. Additionally, cognitive processes in the brain, particularly areas involved in language and comprehension, play a crucial role in interpreting the visual information gathered by these receptors.
The two kinds of receptor in the eye are rods and cones. Rods only see in black and white but are very light sensitive (that's why you see in black and white when it is almost dark) and cones which allow you to see in colour.
Photoreceptors are the type of sensory receptors that detect light and enable vision. There are two main types of photoreceptors in the retina: rods, which are sensitive to low light levels and help with night vision, and cones, which detect color and function best in bright light. Together, they convert light into electrical signals that are processed by the brain to create visual images.
Rod cells are the receptors of the eye that function best in dim light. They are responsible for our low-light vision and are highly sensitive to light, making them ideal for seeing in dark conditions.
Between the human eyes, the primary receptors are the photoreceptors located in the retina, which include rods and cones. Rods are sensitive to low light levels and are responsible for night vision, while cones are responsible for color vision and function best in bright light. Additionally, the eyes communicate through various neural pathways, including the optic nerves that transmit visual information to the brain for processing. Other receptors in the surrounding structures, such as mechanoreceptors in the skin, also contribute to sensory perception but are not directly involved in vision.

Our eyes have both black-and-white receptors, and color receptors. The black-and-white receptors work at low light levels; the color recepters require a higher light intensity.

The vision receptors that function well in dim light are called rods. Rods are highly sensitive to light and allow for vision in low-light conditions, but they do not detect color. They are primarily located in the peripheral regions of the retina and are crucial for night vision and detecting motion. In contrast, cones are responsible for color vision and function best in bright light.
The light receptors in the eye are called cones and rods. Cones are responsible for color vision and detailed vision in bright light, while rods are more sensitive to low light levels and are important for night vision.
Light receptors are located in retina of eye ball. They are rods and cones. Rods are for night vision and cones for color vision. Retina is innermost layer in an eye in posterior compartment. Inside it, is vitreous gel. It is a part of brain and gets separate blood supply from branch of internal carotid artery. They are present in large number in fovea centralis. They are absent, where the optic nerve leaves the eye ball. That creates the 'blind spot' in visual area.
Cone receptors are photoreceptor cells in the retina of the eye responsible for color vision and function best in bright light conditions. There are three types of cones, each sensitive to different wavelengths of light: short (blue), medium (green), and long (red). This trichromatic system allows us to perceive a wide range of colors by combining the inputs from these three types of cones. In contrast to rod receptors, which are more sensitive in low light levels, cones enable sharper vision and detail in well-lit environments.
In dim light, vision primarily relies on rods, which are photoreceptor cells in the retina that are highly sensitive to low light levels. These rods contain a pigment called rhodopsin that enables them to detect light and contribute to night vision. When light enters the eye, it converts rhodopsin into a form that triggers a biochemical cascade, ultimately resulting in the transmission of visual signals to the brain. This process allows for perception in low-light conditions, although it provides less visual acuity and color discrimination compared to cones, which function optimally in bright light.
The retinal receptors responsible for detecting black, white, and gray colors are the rods. Rods are highly sensitive to light and function well in low light conditions, making them crucial for night vision. They do not contribute much to color vision but are essential for detecting differences in light intensity.
