AP PSYCHOLOGY

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: -They are located in the retina (a layer at the back of the eye). There are two types, rods and cones.

Detailed explanation-3: -The iris then passes the image onto the crystalline lens. The lens in the eye focuses the light rays, projecting them to a point at the back of the eye called the retina, where the image appears upside down. The retina contains a thin layer of color-sensitive cells called rods and cones that perceive and decode color.

Detailed explanation-4: -The two classic photoreceptor cells are rods and cones, each contributing information used by the visual system to form an image of the environment, sight.

Detailed explanation-5: -The outer plexiform layer contains the rod and cone axons (projections of rods and cones ending in the rod spherule and cone pedicle), horizontal cell dendrites, and bipolar cells dendrites. Synapses among these structures occur within this layer.
