Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cones are responsible for perceiving color and fine detail, and they are concentrated in the fovea, which is an area in the center of the retina. Rods are more sensitive to light and responsible for detecting low levels of light, while photoreceptors, bipolar cells, ganglion cells, and other parts of the eye all contribute to the process of vision but do not specifically perceive color and fine detail.
