Typically, there are more rod attended synapses at one ganglion, resulting in a less sharp picture. However, there tends to be fewer cones that synapse for a single ganglion, conveying vibrant and sharp pictures. What is the reason for this difference in picture quality?
1) Rod synapses are more sensitive to light than cone synapses
2) Rod synapses are less sensitive to light than cone synapses
3) Rod synapses transmit signals faster than cone synapses
4) Rod synapses transmit signals slower than cone synapses
