Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cones are responsible for color vision, therefore they are the best choice to explain the color sensations that Dawn sees in the paintings. The fovea is the center of the retina where vision is clearest, rods are responsible for black and white vision in low light conditions, and the blind spot is a small area of the retina where there are no photoreceptors. None of these options adequately explain color perception.
