- A special pigment found in the rods and cones of the retina
- Photopigments are unstable pigments that undergo a chemical change when they absorb light. The term is generally applied to the non-protein chromophore moiety of photosensitive chromoproteins, such as the pigments involved in photosynthesis and photoreception. ...
- (Photopigments) Chemical compounds that capture various wavelengths of sunlight energy to conduct photosynthesis.
- (photopigments) Chemical substances that absorb light, thereby starting the complex transduction process that transforms physical electromagnetic energy into an electrochemical neural the rods and the cones contain different types of photopigments; different types of photopigments absorb ...
