In the dark, photoreceptors actively secrete neurotransmitters to inhibit bipolar cells, preventing the excitation of ganglion cells.
Dans l'obscurité, les photorécepteurs sécrètent activement des neurotransmetteurs pour inhiber les cellules bipolaires, empêchant ainsi l'excitation des cellules ganglionnaires.
