Whoa you just saw an eagle swoop down to catch a fish. How did you see that? Describe how light from the outside world gets to your brain. Make sure to use: photoreceptors, eye, optic nerve, and brain in your answer. In one sentence
When light from the outside world enters through the eye and hits the photoreceptors located in the retina, the resulting electrical signals are transmitted via the optic nerve to the brain, allowing me to perceive the incredible sight of an eagle swooping down to catch a fish.
Sure! When light from the outside world enters through the eye, it strikes the photoreceptors in the retina at the back of the eye, which then convert the light into electrical signals that are sent through the optic nerve to the brain, allowing us to perceive and interpret what we see.
When light enters your eye, it activates specialized cells called photoreceptors, which then transmit signals through the optic nerve to your brain, allowing you to perceive and process visual information, such as the eagle swooping down to catch a fish.
