Answer:

B. Sent through electrical signals

Explanation:

Information is passed from the retina to the brain via electric signals through the optic nerves. The optic nerves are a very important part of the visual system of the body in that they carry electric signals from the retina to the brain.

  • The brain therefore interprets the signal and conceptualizes it.  
  • Light on the retina stimulates the cones and rods which in turn generate electrical signals.
