Question

How do we know the certain way an animal sees their vision? Ie black and white etc?

In: Biology

Answer 1

We don’t know how animals see for certain, just like how I can’t know you see exactly how I see.

However, by looking the the types of cells and how they are arranged in the eye, we can make a reasonable guess. Certain types of cells are associated with seeing detail, seeing red and green, etc.
