Rods and cones are sensory cells that respond to light and are known functionally as photoreceptors. Rods are responsible for low light vision and detecting motion, while cones are responsible for color vision and high resolution details.
Rods respond to light while Cones respond to color.
Rods and cones are both photoreceptor cells in the retina of the eye, but they differ in their function. Rods are sensitive to low light levels and help with night vision, while cones are responsible for color vision and detail in well-lit conditions.
Structure: Rods are more numerous than cones and are sensitive to low levels of light, while cones are less numerous and are responsible for color vision. Function: Rods are more sensitive to light and provide night vision, while cones are responsible for detailed vision and color discrimination in bright light. Distribution: Rods are mainly located in the peripheral regions of the retina, while cones are concentrated in the central region (fovea) for high acuity vision.
You find rods and cones in the back of your eye near the retium
Rods can only see in black and white, aka low light conditions. They also provide us with our peripheral vision. Cones allow us to see colors and give us our daytime vision.
Rods and cones are nerve tissue contained in the retina.
Rods respond to light while Cones respond to color.
Rods are a part of the eye that takes in low light. Cones are located in the retina and they are responsible for seeing in color. All mammals have rods and cones in their eyes.

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.
