Match the Photoreceptor Cells with Their Function:

Question

Match the Photoreceptor Cells with Their Function:

i. Rods - 2. Black and white vision in dim light

ii. Cones - 1. Color vision under bright light

iii. Fovea - 3. Area with the highest concentration of cones for sharp vision

iv. Optic Nerve - 4. Transmits visual signals to the brain

1. A. i-4, ii-2, iii-1, iv-3
2. B. i-1, ii-3, iii-4, iv-2
3. C. i-2, ii-1, iii-3, iv-4 (Correct answer)
4. D. i-3, ii-4, iii-2, iv-1

Correct Answer

Option C — i-2, ii-1, iii-3, iv-4

Detailed Solution & Explanation

The correct answer is i-2, ii-1, iii-3, iv-4.

Key Points

• Rods = dim light/black and white vision; Cones = bright light/color vision; Fovea = highest cone density for sharp central vision; Optic nerve = transmits signals to brain.
