Solution

The correct option is B Scotopic vision
The vision by which organisms can see in dim light of late evening and night is known as scotopic vision. Rods are the secondary photoreceptors that lack colour discrimination but are activated by dim light and thus are responsible for scotopic vision in which organisms can see only shapes and movements in general. This makes option A correct.
