A retina receptor sensitive to light is called a photoreceptor. These cells convert light into electrical signals that are then processed by the brain to create visual images. There are two main types of photoreceptors in the retina: rods, which are more sensitive in low light conditions, and cones, which are responsible for color vision.
There are two sensory receptors in the retina, rod cells and cone sells. Rod cells are stimulated by light intensity while cone cells are stimulated by light wave length. Rod cells have rhodopsin, a pigment sensitive to light that breaks down to retinal and opsin as light gets brighter leading to the eyes being less light sensitive. As it gets dark, the retinal and opsin are re-synthesized to rhodopsin, gradually making the eyes more sensitive to light.
The light-sensitive layer of cells at the back of the eye is called the retina. It contains photoreceptor cells called rods and cones that convert light into electrical signals which are then sent to the brain via the optic nerve for processing.
The light-sensitive membrane of the eye is called the retina. It contains cells that detect light and send visual information to the brain for processing.
The area on the retina where the optic nerve attaches is called the optic disc or blind spot. This region lacks photoreceptor cells (rods and cones) and, therefore, cannot detect light or color.
The retina is the sensitive surface of the eye that acts like the film in a camera. It contains specialized cells called photoreceptors that convert light into electrical signals, which are then transmitted to the brain for visual processing.
The rods in our eyes are the most light-sensitive receptor cells. They are highly sensitive to low light levels and help us see in dim lighting conditions.
i think its the retina

The back of the eye is called the retina. It is a light-sensitive layer of tissue that lines the back of the eye and contains cells that respond to light.
The light sensitive surface that converts light into neural impulse is called the retina
The light-sensitive membrane of the eye is called the retina. It contains cells that detect light and send visual information to the brain for processing.
The sensory receptor for the eyes is the photoreceptor cells located in the retina. There are two main types of photoreceptors: rods, which are sensitive to low light levels and help with night vision, and cones, which are responsible for color vision in bright light.
It's called a retina.
Rhodopsin is a receptor found specifically in the rod cells of the retina in the eye. It is responsible for detecting light and initiating the process of visual perception in low-light conditions.
