Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The retina contains three types of cones, each sensitive to different wavelengths of light: one type is most sensitive to light around 440 nanometers (blue-violet light), another to light around 530 nanometers (green light), and the third to light around 560 nanometers (yellow-green light). Therefore, the sensitivity depends on the class of cone in question.
