Which layer of retinal neurons has axons that leave the retina?
a. Outer Nuclear layer
b. Inner Nuclear layer
c. Ganglion cell layer
d. Inner plexiform layer
Ans: C. Ganglion cell layer
The ganglion cell layer contains the cell bodies of the ganglion
cells. These are the only cells with axons that leave the retina

b. 560 nm
c. 430 nm
d. 530 nm
Ans: d. 530 nm
The cones in our retinas contain one of three opsins. These
opsins give the photopigments different spectral sensitivities.
Green cones are maximally activated by the light with a
wavelength of about 530 nm.
What is reflection?
Ans: c. Light rays bouncing off a surface
Why is the retina said to be duplex?
Ans: Because it can work under both scotopic and photopic
lighting conditions
