Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Photopigments are the light-sensitive chemicals within receptor cells that absorb light waves. Accommodators refer to the ability of the lens to adjust its shape to focus on objects at different distances, processors are not directly related to the process of absorbing light waves in vision, and feature detectors are neurons that respond to specific visual features, but not necessarily involved in the absorption of light waves.
