What are the two sensory cells on the retina?
The two sensory receptors of the eye are called rods and cones. Rods are located more in the periphery around the fovea. These pick up movement very well and mostly pick up just black and white kind of stimulation. It is the rods that are most active at night. Cones, on the other hand, are used when you're focusing on something and it gives crisp and colorful pictures. This is why when you see something in the corner of your eye it's hard to confidently determine what it exactly is. The reason why the body is made up this way is because if we had all cones instead of rods, it would be way too much stimulation for our brain to work through. It would get too distracting when we are focusing on everything instead of just what is right in front of you. In addition, cone cells require more metabolism than rod cells, so the eyes balance energy expenditure with image quality.
Layer of nerve tissue made up of sensory neurons that respond to light?
The retina is the layer of nerve tissue in the back of the eye that contains sensory neurons called photoreceptors. These photoreceptors, specifically rods and cones, respond to light and convert it into electrical signals, which are then transmitted to the brain via the optic nerve, allowing us to perceive visual information.
What are tissue made of?
Tissue are made up of cells. Group of cells form tissue.
What the cell made up of muscles?
cell made a group and made a tissue and tissue together and made a musle
How are tissue and organs different and alike?
Tissue is made up of similar cells, and organs are made up of similar tissues.
What is made up of special nerve cells that are connected to the rods and cones?
the answer to that questions is the optic nerve

Why do you not see color at the periphery of your vision?
cones and rods make up your eyes. cones allow you to see colors, while rods allow you to see black and white. there are no cones in the spot where you have peripheral vision.
How eyes work in mammals?
not sure. n eyes there are rods and cones. most animals have only rods, which pick up light and dark but not colour. humans(and possibly some other animals)have rodsand cones. the cones pick up colour.
What visual field allow us to see sharp detail?
Our eyes are made up of millions of rods and cones. The rods help us to see in dimmer light, but they do not help with visual acuity. It is the cones which give us visual acuity and colour perception.
Which type of receptors are more sensitive the rods or the cones?
Rods are the more sensitive, as they are used to pick up on the 'brightness' of something, and cones are used to judge the colour. This explains why all colours appear grey in dim lighting.

Do rods detect color in eye receptors?
Rods are used to detect variances in light and are perceived as black, grey and white. Cones are used to pick up colors.
What are rods and cones?
Rods and cones are photoreceptors in the eye that allow people to see. Rods allow people to see colors, while cones allow people to see in low light, and in great detail.
What kind of tissue made up of septa?
The septa is made up of adipose tissue
Why can't humans see color at night?
You have two types of light receptors, rods and cones. Rods register light, while cones register the colours of the light. However, cones require more light to work. When there is little light, the cones do not activate as well. The rods still continue to activate, giving you the appearance of light, but not the colours making up that light.
