Solution

The correct option is A Rods
There is a very high concentration of cone photoreceptor cells in the macula, which are responsible for our colour vision and our ability to see fine details. It's estimated that there are 6 million to 7 million cone cells in the retina, with most of them located in the macula. It does not have rod cells.
