Question
the optic nerve is formed by axons that arise from which retinal cells? amacrine ganglion bipolar photoreceptor
Brief Explanations
The optic nerve is formed by the axons of ganglion cells. Ganglion cells are the output neurons of the retina. Their axons converge at the optic disc to form the optic nerve. Amacrine cells are involved in lateral communication within the retina. Bipolar cells transmit signals from photoreceptors to ganglion cells. Photoreceptor cells (rods and cones) detect light but do not form the optic nerve directly.
