Detailed explanation-1: -The retinal is the principal molecule of vision in the retina. It can absorb different frequencies of light. Its isomer (Cis-retinal) is present in rhodopsin, which is a photosensitive transmembrane G-protein that exists in rods and cones; it contains both cis-retinal and opsin.
Detailed explanation-2: -Photoreceptors react to light, including the receptors in the retinas of the eyes. Thermoreceptors respond to temperature changes. The three classifications of sensory receptors are based on their location. Enteroceptors respond to stimuli from outside the body and are usually near or upon the body surface.
Detailed explanation-3: -Photoreceptors are specialized neurons found in the retina that convert light into electrical signals that stimulate physiological processes. From: Biomechatronics, 2019.
