Recovery of circulating current upon extinction of intense illumination occurs at least 10 000-fold faster in cones than in rods. The cone transduction machinery appears almost immune to the presence of bleaching products. The basis and the significance of these differences will be discussed.[...
There were relatively small but clear and significant, differences between males and females in the hue sensations elicited by almost the entire spectrum. Generally, males required a slightly longer wavelength to experience the same hue as did females. The spectral loci of the unique hues are not ...
uses only rodsComparison between high resolution in bright light and lowresolution in low light √Because cones have a nerve each, rods share nerves √Comparison between coloured image in bright light and blackand white image in low light √Cones see in colour, rods see in black and white √...
Explain the differences between an alkaline metal and a regular metal. What are the differences between an X-ray, MRI and CT scan? What is the difference between a tumor suppressor protein, and an oncogene? Explain two main differences between polycistronic and monocistronic mRNAs. Describe the...
Describe how the appearance of the image of the letters "a" and "k" changes when the naked eye image is compared to the ocular image. What is the visual difference between a sterile and a non-sterile nutrient broth? Explain the ...
a. It may be present in the form of vesicles, tubules and lamellae. b. It helps on cell wall secretion, cell respiration, DNA replication and cell division c. It increases the surface area of the cell wall and enzymatic content.
In contrast, light or voltage stimulation generates changes in the cytoplasmic concentration of Ca2+ in the outer segment that are far larger and faster in cones than in rods. This distinction reflects rod-cone differences in each of the elements that control Ca2+ homeostasis: cell volume, the ...
Furthermore, an additional difference between rods and cones was found in the retinoid metabolism. This reaction, specifically found in cones, ensures effective regeneration of visual pigment so that cones can operate even under very bright light.

Describe the functional and anatomic differences between rods and cones in detail. Describe how the structure of mammalian skin is adapted to its function. Discuss the different types of cells and tissues that emphasizing the structural features that enable them t...
Cone pigments exhibit molecular properties distinct from rod pigment rhodopsins, such as their thermal stability and kinetics of retinal incorporation and release, which contribute to the difference in cellular response between cones and rods. Because rod and cone pigments have a common ancestor, they...
