A Correct answer
Explanation

Cone cells are photoreceptor cells in the retina of the eye that are responsible for color vision. They function best in bright light and come in three types that respond to different wavelengths (red, green, and blue). Rod cells, by contrast, are more sensitive and work in low light but only detect shades of gray.
