    Abstract:

    Heavy water effects on ATP concentration in frog retina were followed up. A substantial (more than 50%) decrease of ATP pools was found in the retina immersed in 2H2O-Ringer as compared to that in H2O-Ringer, which revealed that protons are strongly involved in the cellular energy processes.

    Photoreceptors and Visual Pathways

    At the molecular level, visual signals trigger transformations in photopigment molecules, resulting in changes in the photoreceptor cell's membrane potential. The photon's energy level is denoted by its wavelength, with each specific wavelength of visible light associated with a distinct color. The spectral range of visible light, classified as electromagnetic radiation, spans from 380 to 720 nm. Electromagnetic radiation wavelengths exceeding 720 nm fall under the infrared category, whereas...
