The Structure of the Eye - Retina - Inner neural layer
3 important questions on The Structure of the Eye - Retina - Inner neural layer
Name the 3 main types of neural cells found in the neural inner layer of the eye?
Name the other 2 additional interneurons found in this layer and their function
Photoreceptors, bipolar and ganglion cells
- Horizontal cells - combine signals across a wide area from multiple photoreceptor cells (integrate) & send negative feedback signals back to photoreceptors to adjust how sensitive they are (Provide inhibitory feedback)
- amacrine cells - work w/ ganglion & bipolar cells
Name the 4 functional regions of photoreceptors
Outer segment,Inner segment, Cell body, Synaptic terminal
What Lighting and Sensitivity do rods function best in?
State the Color and Detail of Rods images
Name the kind of pigment found in rods
Rods are highly sensitive and function best in dim light
provide noncolor vision and low-acuity images
Rods exclusively contain the pigment rhodopsin
provide noncolor vision and low-acuity images
Rods exclusively contain the pigment rhodopsin
