I'm sorry, but I am not able to draw images. However, I can describe the differences between rods and cones in the retina of the eye.
Rods: - Responsible for vision in low light conditions (night vision) - More numerous than cones - Sensitive to light intensity - Do not detect color - Located in the peripheral regions of the retina
Cones: - Responsible for color vision and visual acuity - Less numerous than rods - Sensitive to different wavelengths of light (red, green, blue) - Concentrated in the central region of the retina (fovea) - Provide detailed vision and the ability to see in bright light conditions

Rod
- Outer segment: Contains light-sensitive pigments called rhodopsin - Inner segment: Contains the nucleus and other cellular organelles - Synaptic terminal: Transmits signals to other neurons
Cone
- Outer segment: Contains light-sensitive pigments called photopsins - Inner segment: Contains the nucleus and other cellular organelles - Synaptic terminal: Transmits signals to other neurons
Other structures:
- Bipolar cells: Connect rods and cones to ganglion cells - Ganglion cells: Transmit signals from the retina to the brain - Optic nerve: Bundle of axons that carry signals from the ganglion cells to the brain
