CSP: one of the two photoreceptor cell types of the vertebrate retina; rods are more sensitive to light than cones, but rod mediated vision has less spatial and temporal resolution than cone vision.,MSH: Photosensitive afferent neurons located in the peripheral retina, with density increases radially away from the FOVEA CENTRALIS. Being much more sensitive to light than the RETINAL CONE CELLS, the rod cells are responsible for twilight vision (at scotopic intensities) as well as peripheral vision, but provide no color discrimination.,CHV: a cell in the eye that enables to see by receiving lights,CHV: a cell in the eye that enables to see by receiving lights,CHV: a cell in the eye that enables to see by receiving lights,CHV: a cell in the eye that enables to see by receiving lights,CHV: a cell in the eye that enables to see by receiving lights,CHV: a cell in the eye that enables to see by receiving lights,CHV: a cell in the eye that enables to see by receiving lights,NCI: One of the two photoreceptor cell type
