Caption Red cone photoreceptor cell arrangement: (Left) In wild-type retinas, red cones extend multiple filopodia toward neighboring cells, but these filopodia stop growing when they encounter ...

In vertebrate retinas, specialized photoreceptors responsible for color vision (cone cells) arrange themselves in patterns ...

THIS mind-boggling illusion used to demonstrate what people with colourblindness can see has blown the minds of social media users. All you have to do is stare at the middle of the green, yellow, ...

1 Researchers have debated if green and red cone determination is random or deliberate ... “Cones are particularly interesting as the cell type that matters most for our daily operation in color ...
