• The Rod and Cones shaped are two Photoreceptors cells.
• these are the cells in retina , which are light sensitive.

$\huge\bold {\boxed {\underline{\sf {\purple{rod \: shaped \: cell}}}}}$

• Rod-Shaped cell are about 500 times more sensitive to light than cone-cells .
• they give us dim light or night light than cone-cells .

$\huge \bold {\underline {\boxed {\rm{\pink{cone \: shaped \: cell}}}}}$

• cone -shaped cells are sensitive to red, green and blue light .
• colour vision is possible due to these cone-shaped cell.

Extra Information:

1. the semi transparent membrane, extremely sensitive to light at the inner back side of the eye is known as retina .
2. it is composed of tiny photoreceptor cell that is resonate to the incoming light .
3. the real and inverted image formed by the eye lens is screened at the retina .
4. retina is actually thin tissues having several layers of cell .
5. different parts of retina receive light from different parts of the visual field outside.
