Solution

Yellow spot:

  4. The signals are converted into an image by our brain.
  5. There are no light-sensitive cells in the area where our nervus opticus attaches to our retina, thus we can't see anything there.

Final answer: The circular part in the center of retina of the human eye is called Yellow spot.
