which light sensitive cells are present in the human eye? why an owl can see only at night?
Answers
Rods and cones are light sensitive cells which are present in the human eye enabling us to see during both day and night time.
In certain animals, either of rods or cones could be less or more in number.
In an owl, cones cells (enables us to see during day) are almost absent (which limit them to certain colours only) while rods cells (enables us to see during night) are high in number which helps them to see at night very easily.
HOPE THIS HELPS ^_^
Answer:
we human have light sensitive cells(rods and cones), which works differently when different wavelength of lights are approaching our eyes. in datetime it works differently and in night time it works differently because they has light and night is dark.
owls have more rods and less cones. so they can see in night
