Question

what is the difference between rods and cones​

Answer 1

Answer:

Rods and Cones are the photoreceptors, useful in providing vision to the eyes. Rods provide vision during dim light or night also known as scotopic vision, whereas cones provide vision during day time or at bright light also known as photopic vision.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Rods are responsible for vision at low light levels (scotopic vision). They do not mediate color vision, and have a low spatial acuity. Cones are active at higher light levels (photopic vision), are capable of color vision and are responsible for high spatial acuity. The central fovea is populated exclusively by cones.
