Question

Sensory neurons of retina are

• A. Maculae and cristae
• B. Pacinian and Ruffini's corpuscles
• C. Rods and cones
• D. All the above

Answer 1

The correct option is C Rods and cones

Rods and cones are sensory neurons of eye as they transmit information to other cells.

• Rods are the photoreceptor cells that contain rhodopsin pigment and associated with scotopic vision of eye i.e. vision under low light.
• Cones are the photoreceptor cells that contain iodopsin, porpyrosin and cyanopsin pigments. These cells are associated with the daylight vision and colour vision of eyes.

So, the correct answer is 'Rods and cones'.
