Question

15) How long does it take for cones to adapt? And rods?

16) Which photoreceptors are responsible for vision in dim light? In bright light?

17) What is the importance of cross connections between cones in relation to borders?

18) How do pupils respond to luminosity, average or sum?

19) Why are the eyes sensitive to certain lights especially when being in a dark room?

20) How have our eyes adapted to sensitivity of lights?

21) How is "color" thought of in terms of seeing brightness?

22) What is the Fechner's paradox?

23) What is the most important difference between brightness and intensity?

24) What color are cones most sensitive to and what color are rods most sensitive to ?

25) What is law of specific energies (a.k.a Law of Qualities)?

Explanation / Answer

15. Rods, in comparison to cons, are more sensitive to light and so take longer to fully adapt to the change in light. Rods take about 30 minutes to fully adapt to the dark whereas cones take approximately 9–10 minutes to adapt to the dark.
