Solution

The correct option is B Rods and cones
The retina is a thin layer of tissue that lines the back of the eye on the inside. It is located near the optic nerve. It is composed of rods and cones. The purpose of it is to receive lights that the lens has focused, convert the light into neural signals, and send these signals to the brain for visual recognition.
So, option C is the correct option.
