PrepTest 110 - Section 3 - Question 19

Show summary

Light is registered in the retina when photons hit molecules of the pigment rhodopsin and change the molecules' shape. ████ ████ ████ ████ ███ ████ ██████ ██ ███████ ██ ██████ █████████ █████████ █████████ ██████ █████ ███████ ██ ██████ █████████ ███████ ███████ ███████████ █████ ████ ███ ██████ ███████ ███ ██████ ██ ████ █████████ ██████ ██ ████████ ████████████ ██ ███ ███████████ ██ ███ ███████

Summary

In the retina, light is registered when photons make contact with molecules of rhodopsin and cause the molecules to change shape. Rhodopsin molecules sometimes change shape caused by normal molecular motion, which causes errors in the visual system. The amount of normal molecular motion is directly proportional to the temperature of the retina.

Strongly Supported Conclusions

The warmer the retina, the higher the chance that errors in the visual system occur.
