Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Rods are responsible for vision in low light conditions, while cones are responsible for color vision and detail in high light conditions. The pupil controls the amount of light entering the eye, and the retina contains the rods and cones that detect light and transmit visual information to the brain. Therefore, option A is the best choice as it correctly identifies that vision in low light conditions depends on the rods.
