Rods and cones differ in how they connect to bipolar cells and eventually to ganglion cells. Themajor difference is thatmany cones converge onto one ganglion cellmany cones converge onto one bipolar cellmany rods converge onto one bipolar cellone rod reaches one bipolar cell

The correct answer is many cones converge into one ganglion cell.

Answered: many cones converge onto one ganglion…

As light hits the rods and cones, they release molecules. This is interpreted as light by the brain. None of these is correct More neurotransmitter molecules More opsin molecules More rhodopsin molecules Fewer neurotransmitter molecules
Events in Visual Perception Potassium channels open. Potassium ions move out of the neuron. Some sodium channels open in the neuronal membrane of the dendrite. All ion channels close and the Na+/K+ exchange pump starts working. Some sodium ions diffuse into the neuron membrane of the dendrite. Lights hit the retina. The threshold level is reached at the neuronal membrane of the dendrite. The remaining sodium channels open. Sodium ions move into the neuron. List, in order, the events in visual perception that must occur for a person to see an object:
