Rods vs. Cones
 function in bright light
 require more light to
be stimulated
 no adaptation time
required, except in
extremely bright light
 mostly in the macula
lutea, only receptor in
the fovea centralis
 color vision
 dim light receptors
 very sensitive to light
 requires dark
adaptation
 found around the
periphery of the retina,
outside the macula
lutea
 monochromatic vision
