Answer:

rod photoreceptors

Explanation:

The retina of the eye has 2 types of sensory receptors or photoreceptors. They are the rod cells and the cone cells. The rod cells mostly found at the outer edge of the retina of the eye, which are numerous and more sensitive compared to the cone cells. The cone photoreceptors are found in the macula.

The rod photoreceptors are responsible for night vision mainly and function in dim light or less intense light, while the cone receptors are responsible for color sensitivity.  

The rod photoreceptors are responsible for processing his ability to see objects in the darkness.

What are some advantages and disadvantages of
andrew-mc [135]

Advantages Time Efficient; no need to search for mate, requires less energy Variation, Unique., organism is more protected

Disadvantages No variation - if the parent has a genetic disease, offspring does too. Requires two organisms, requires more energy

Explanation:While asexual reproduction only involves one organism, sexual reproduction requires both a male and a female. Some plants and unicellular organisms reproduce asexually. Most mammals and fish use sexual reproduction. Some organisms like corals and komodo dragons can reproduce either sexually or asexually. But in the long term (over several generations), lack of sexual reproduction compromises their ability to adapt to the environment because they do not benefit from the genetic variation introduced by sexual reproduction
