Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The fovea contains a very high concentration of cones, which are responsible for high visual acuity and color vision. Rods, on the other hand, are responsible for vision in dim light and are mostly found in the peripheral regions of the retina. Bipolar cells and peripheral cells do not directly contribute to visual acuity.
