Author: Joseph Baxter. Linear, quadratic and exponential functions have different graphs, equations, and characteristics. In this tutorial, compare the shape of linear, quadratic, and exponential curves on a graph, and explore how to identify a function as linear, quadratic, or exponential by examining x- and y-coordinates.

The tier of cells at the back of the retina contains the light receptors, the rods and cones. Rods, which are far more numerous than cones, are responsible for our vision in dim light and are out of commission in bright light.
The retina has about 6 million cones and 120 million rods. Cones are cone shaped structures and are required for bright light (day light) vision. Rods are rod like structures and are required for dim light (twilight/ night) vision.sually located in the centre of retina. All rod cells are alike, and do not give colour vision. Cones are of three types: blue, green and red, and give colour vision. Sensitive to dim light and give twilight vision.
