Question
- which part of the retina is the sensory portion associated with sight?
ora serrata
pars ciliaris
pars erratica
pars optica
To solve this, we recall the anatomy of the retina. The pars optica (also called the neural retina) contains photoreceptor cells (rods and cones) and other neurons involved in visual signal processing, making it the sensory portion for sight. Ora serrata is a junction, pars ciliaris is part of the non - sensory retina (involved in pigmentation and support), and pars erratica is not a correct term for the sensory retina.
