A)rods
B)cones
C)both rods and cones

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Rods have much convergence in pathways, meaning that many rods share one bipolar cell, leading to less visual acuity but increased sensitivity to low light. Cones have less convergence in pathways, meaning that fewer cones share one bipolar cell, leading to higher visual acuity but lower sensitivity to low light. Both rods and cones are not the best choice, as they have different properties in terms of convergence in pathways.
