Photoreceptor
This implies that the subject is in a dark room.

The rods cells are photoreceptor cells that require less light to function, therefore they are responsible for night vision.
Photoreceptor can refer to:In anatomy/cell biology:Photoreceptor cell: a photosensitive cell, most commonly referring to a specialized type of neuron found in the retina of vertebrate eyes that is capable of phototransduction;Ocellus (invertebrate photoreceptor): a photoreceptor organ ("simple eye") of invertebrates often comprised of a few sensory cells and a single lens;Eyespot apparatus (microbial photoreceptor): the photoreceptor organelle of a unicellular organism that allows for phototaxis.In biochemistry:Photoreceptor protein: a chromoprotein that responds to being exposed to a certain wavelength of light by initiating a signal transduction cascade;Photopigment: an unstable pigment that undergoes a physical or chemical change upon absorbing a particular wavelength of light;Photosynthetic pigment: molecules involved in transducing light into chemical energy.In technology:Photodetector or photosensor: a device that detects light by capturing photonsPhotoreceptor: the component of a xerographic copier or printer that captures the virtual image that will eventually be printed on paper.
A photoreceptor detects light rays. It works somewhat like taste receptors do.
Cone cells, or cones, are photoreceptor cells in the retina of the eye which function best in relatively bright light. The cone cells gradually become sparser towards the periphery of the retina.

Phytochrome is the photoreceptor that allows plants to detect day length.

True the Photoreceptor sensory cilia are the light sensitive parts of the rods and cones in the eye's retina
