How do cats eyes work?

Answer 1

they work by reflecting the light form an on-coming car's headlights back towards the car, so the driver can see them cats eyes change form depending on the day and the night. At day time cats eyes change form to slits because of the brightness coming from the sun. at night time when the moon is out, cats eyes will turn to moons (a circle) because the moon only reflects the light also because at night this is a time for hunting and they need to absorb as much light as possible to see the prey.

Cats can's see in total darkness, but they can see much better in semi-darkness than we can. Cat's can open their iris (the colored portion of the eye) very wide to let in as much light as possible. The retina (the back of the eye) is made up of two major types of light-sensitive cells called 'rods' and 'cones'. Rods magnify light impulses. Ca's have an increased number of rods. In cats, 25 out of 26 light-sensitive cells are rods, whereas in humans, 4 out of 5 cells are rods. Cats also have a highly developed tapetum lucidum, the reflective area in the back of their eyes. Other animals such as deer and raccoons also have this tapetum lucidum. This is what gives their eyes a glowing effect at night when light shines in their faces.

Answer 2

Cats have a reflective layer called the tapetum lucidum behind their retinas, which helps them see better in low light. This layer reflects light that passes through the retina, giving it a second chance to be absorbed by the light-sensitive cells. Additionally, cats have slit-shaped pupils that can adjust quickly to changes in light levels, allowing them to see well in both bright and dim conditions.

Answer 3

Well they all should function pretty much the same way.

Answer 4

the same way ours does unless its nocturnal
