Q

10 retinal layers

A
  1. PIGMENT EPITHELIUM: cuboid cells, along basement membrane, have melanin granules
  2. EXTERNAL PHOTOSENSITIVE: Elongated outer segments of photoreceptors. Contain opsins
  3. INTERNAL PHOTOSENSITIVE: modified bodies of photoreceptor cells
  4. EXTERNAL LIMITING MEMBRANE: junctionnal complexes between photoreceptors and cells of MUller
  5. EXTERNAL NUCLEAR: photoreceptor nuclei
  6. EXTERNAL PLEXIFORM: axons, telodendria, dendrites (photoreceptors, bipolar, horizontal cells)
  7. INTERNAL NUCLEAR: cell bodies (bipolar, horizontal, amacrine
  8. INTERNAL PLEXIFORM: synapses (bipolar-ganglion cells)
  9. GANGLION: ganglion cell bodies (form ON)
  10. NERVE FIBER layer: unmylinated axons of ganglion cells
  11. INTERNAL LIMITING MEMBRANE: basement membrane adjacent to vitreous humor
