When you look at an image, it is inverted on the back of the retina and yet appears right-side-up when we perceive it. What part of the body is responsible for inverting the image?

A) the retina
B) the rods and cones
C) the optic nerve
D) the brain
E) the lens

Optical Nerve

Often referred to as the optic nerve, it is a crucial nerve responsible for transmitting visual information from the retina to the brain.

Rods and Cones

Specialized types of photoreceptor cells in the retina that are responsible for vision in low light (rods) and color vision and detailed vision in brighter light (cones).

Retina

The light-sensitive layer of tissue at the back of the inner eye, containing photoreceptor cells that convert light into neural signals.
