2.  The cone cells are located in the human eye  More specifically found in the retina of the human eye

3.  The human eye contains many parts, 1 called the retina  The retina is made up of 2 different photoreceptors  1 being the more sensitive to light then the other and contains about 120 million cells in the eye, these are called Rods  The other 1, Cones have much fewer cells only about 6-7 million in the retina and are less sensitive to light but much more sensitive to colour

4.  Cones are cells in your eyes that give you the ability to see coloured objects  Cones turns light into colour  There are 3 different types of cones, green cones, red cones, and blue cone  The red and green cones make up about 98% of all cones  The blue only take up about 2% but, they have the highest sensitive color

5.  Rods are very sensitive to light and are used during the night when it is hard to see  Cones however are only Useful during the day when it’s light.  Cone are also much smaller in size and have a substantial amount less In the retina

6.  Colour blindness  For the most part Colour blindness is a hereditary condition  It occurs when 1 or more of the three types of cone cells are lacking or are not there
