Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Rods are responsible for night vision and allow us to see in dim light conditions. They are found mainly in the periphery of the retina and do not respond to color, unlike the cones which are located mainly in the fovea and are responsible for color vision. Rods also operate better in low light conditions, such as at night or in dimly lit environments.
