| 11. | Rod cells are most sensitive to light of wavelengths near 498 nm; such light appears blue-green.
|
| 12. | Rattlesnake eyes, which contain a large number of rod cells, are well adapted to nocturnal use.
|
| 13. | RETGC-1 has been found to be expressed in higher levels in cones compared to rod cells.
|
| 14. | As green iguanas have only a few rod cells, they have poor vision in low-light conditions.
|
| 15. | Albinism specifically affects the rod cells, but the number and distribution of the cones is unaffected.
|
| 16. | In rod cells, these together are called rhodopsin.
|
| 17. | As Ricord's iguanas have only a few Rod cells they have poor vision in low-light conditions.
|
| 18. | PDE in rod cells are activated by transducin.
|
| 19. | The retina contains rod cells and cone cells.
|
| 20. | Because light is so scarce, fish often have larger than normal, tubular eyes with only rod cells.
