Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The principle of univariance states that a given receptor responds the same way to different wavelengths of light, as long as the photon energy is sufficient to activate the receptor. Therefore, the absorption of one photon of light by a cone receptor results in the same response regardless of the wavelength of light.

According to the Principle of Univariance,the Absorption of One Photon
