The cells in the eye that convert electromagnetic energy into neural signals are called:
A)bipolar cells
B)rods and cones
C)ganglion cells
D)feature detectors

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Rods and cones are the cells located in the retina of the eye that are responsible for photoreception and converting electromagnetic energy (light) into neural signals that are sent to the brain to create visual perception. Bipolar cells are located between the rods/cones and the ganglion cells in the retina and help to process and enhance visual information, while ganglion cells transmit signals from the bipolar cells to the brain. Feature detectors are specific cells in the visual cortex that respond to specific aspects of visual stimuli, such as edges or movement, and do not directly convert light into neural signals.
