The Retina Contains _______

Question

The retina contains _______.
A) a jelly-like substance
B) muscles to adjust focus
C) the rods and cones
D) the lens of the eye

Accepted Answer

The retina contains the rods and cones, which are photoreceptor cells that detect light and help us to see. Option A is incorrect because the jelly-like substance is found in the vitreous humor, which is located behind the lens. Option B is incorrect because the muscles that adjust focus are found in the ciliary body and the iris, not in the retina. Option D is incorrect because the lens of the eye is located in the anterior segment of the eye, in front of the retina.
