Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The retina contains photoreceptor cells that detect colors and send signals through the optic nerve to the visual cortex in the brain, where the processing of color perception is completed. The lens focuses light onto the retina, but does not play a direct role in color processing. The optic nerve solely transmits signals from the retina, and the occipital lobe is a specific part of the visual cortex that processes visual information but is not responsible for the initial processing of color.
