Answer:

The cones detect the brightness and the rods the colors.

Explanation:

Thanks to a layer of photoreceptors inside the eye, it is able to convert the captured light into brain signals.

There are two types of photoreceptors: rods and cones.

  • Rods: they allow the human eye to have a visual acuity (the eye's ability to resolve and perceive small details in an object) and to differentiate <u>colors</u>.
  • Cones: are in charge of detecting the <u>intensity of the light</u>. They are very numerous and are very sensitive. Not being able to distinguish colors, they give rise to an achromatic vision.

Rods work very well in darkness/ low light. Cones process colors.

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

In Labrador dogs, black coat is dominant to chocolate, normal vision is dominant to progressive retinal atrophy (PRA), and normal hip joint is dominant to hip dysplasia. All these genes assort independently. Two dogs that are heterozygous for alleles of all three genes are crossed. Using rules of probability (not a Punnett square), what is the chance that the first pup born to these dogs will be chocolate, have normal vision, and have normal hip joints?

BbVvHh x BbVvHh= BBVVHH, BbVvHh, BbVvHh, bbvvhh

Bb= black coat dominant

Vv= Normal vision dominant

Hh= Normal hip join dominant

probability of having a first born of these dogs will be chocolate, have normal vision and have normal hip joint is 0

Explanation:

As the punette square gives 3:1 phenotype having three black coat, normal vision and normal hip joint and one chocolate, progressive retina altropy and hip dysplasia
