An eye doctor shines a bright light into a patient's eye. In one to two sentences, explain how the patient's brain perceives the bright light. (2 points)
The patient's brain perceives the bright light through the activation of photoreceptor cells in the retina which convert the light energy into electrical signals that are then transmitted to the brain for visual processing.
When a bright light is shone into the patient's eye, the light enters the eye and stimulates the photoreceptor cells in the retina. These cells convert the light into electrical signals that are sent to the brain through the optic nerve, where they are interpreted as a perception of brightness.
