Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When photopigments split apart, it triggers a chemical signal that is sent to the brain, which is the basis of vision sensation. This process occurs during the process of phototransduction in the photoreceptor cells of the retina. Color vision, accommodation (the ability of the eye to focus on objects at various distances), and farsightedness are not directly related to photopigment splitting apart.
