Rod and cone cells are the photoreceptor cells of retina. The rods contain the rhodopsin (visual purple) pigment and enable the animals to see in darkness, therefore, present in large number in nocturnal animals. The cones contain the iodopsin (visual violet) pigment and chiefly concerned with distinction in colour and light vision during day time.
