Answer: A - Rods are more numerous than cones

Explanation: Rods are found everywhere in the retina except the fovea (a tiny pocket in the retina where just about all of the cones are located).

B. The macula lutea is another word for fovea, no rods are found there.

C. Rods are utilized in low-light conditions and are not <em>sensitive</em> to wavelengths of light.

D. Cones are responsible for perceiving color and not rods.

E. The main function of the rods is to help us see in low-light conditions (scotopic vision), so this answer would be incorrect.
