The fact that cones exhibit less neuronal convergence than rods do is part of the reason that
A)rod cells cannot distinguish different colors from each other.
B)rod cells do not function in bright light.
C)no images are perceived within the optic disc.
D)cone cells do not see in black and white.
E)photopic (day) vision has higher resolution than scotopic (night) vision.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cones have less neuronal convergence, meaning each cone cell connects to a single ganglion cell, allowing for higher resolution and detail in photopic (day) vision compared to scotopic (night) vision, where rods have more convergence and less detail.
