Question
Chapter 44.5, Problem 1CS
Summary Introduction
To explain: The structural similarity in insect and vertebrate photoreceptors.
Introduction: The eyes present in arthropods are known as compound eye, whereas eye present in vertebrates is known as a simple eye. The eyes in both of them help in better interaction with their surroundings and can also sense colors present in the environment.
