The correct answer is A. To convert light to electrical impulses

Additionally, these cells can be of different types including cones, rods and retinal ganglion cells as each of these processes different types of light.

What is the life cycle for a goldfish?​
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

The life cycle of a goldfish starts out as an egg. The female fish will lay about 25 eggs, but unfortunately only some grow up. The eggs usually hatch within 5 days and if you have a fish tank then you should take the adult fish out or else it may eat the eggs. After the egg hatches, it turns into a fry,(this is what a baby goldfish is called) Once they hatch, they will stay attached to the plants for two days, after that, you should start to feed them. Once they are not fry anymore, they turn into adult goldfish. If you take care of them properly, they could last up to 15 years! Once the fish are complete adults, they can lay eggs. The females rub up against plants and lays eggs while the male Goldfish sprays the eggs to make them fertilize and turn into fry.
