Rods and cones detect/sense light coming in to make colors. Your brain then converts it to an image.

What are the two types of cells found at the retina and what are their functions?
Rods and cones.
What happens when people only have functions of cones and no rods?
If you only had the use of your rods (shade receptors), you would be colour blind. Depending on which cones (colour receptors) were ineffective, you could be red green colourblind, or even completely colourblind.
Where do you find rods and cones?
You find rods and cones in the back of your eye near the retium
Nerve tissue containing rods and cones?
Rods and cones are nerve tissue contained in the retina.
How do the function of the rods and cones differ?
Rods respond to light while Cones respond to color.
How do the function of the rods and cones different?
Rods respond to light while Cones respond to color.
What are rods and cones for a cows eye?
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.
What are the two type of photoreceptor?
Rods and cones.
Do rods or cones help you see in the dark?
rods do
Rods and cones are?
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 is in the back of the eye holding 3 million cones on a billion rods?
The retina contains the rods and cones. There are more rods than cones but is is more like 120 million rods to 5 million cones. Both are special cells that are photoreceptors. This means that they are sensitive to light. The cones are best for color vision but the rods are for low light. That is one reason why you don't see color in low light.
Do some people have more cones?
Yes, some people have more cones in their eyes than others. Cones are photoreceptor cells responsible for color vision, and individuals with a condition called tetrachromacy may have an additional cone type, allowing them to perceive a wider range of colors than those with typical trichromatic vision.
