  1. Which one of the following is the correct difference between Rod Cells and Cone Cells of our retina?








  1. View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum

    Rod cells is a type of light sensitive receptor cell present in the retinas of vertebrates. Rod contains the pigment rhodopsin and are essential for vision in dim light. Cone cells is a type of light sensitive receptor cell, found in retinas of all diurnal vertebrates. Cones are specialized to transmit information about colour and are responsible for the visual acuity of the eye. They function best in bright light.

    Correct Option: C
