Drag each label to the correct location on this diagram showing a cross section of the retina. Cells of the choroid layer These are the only cells in the diagram that generate action potentials. Information from the rods and cones is modified by these cells before it reaches the ganglion cells. In these cells, photons of light entering the eye are converted into changes in ion flow.
