Detailed explanation-1: -The retina is the back part of the eye that contains the cells that respond to light. These specialized cells are called photoreceptors. There are 2 types of photoreceptors in the retina: rods and cones .

Detailed explanation-2: -In both vertebrate photoreceptors and rhabdoms, each photoreceptor cell contains a nucleus, an energy-producing region with mitochondria (in the inner segment in rods and cones), and an axon that conveys electrical signals to the next neurons in the processing chain.

Detailed explanation-3: -Photoreceptor cells are located in the retina, which is the light-sensitive tissue that lines the back of the eye. There are two kinds of photoreceptor cells: cones and rods.
