Difference between Retina and Ribbon synapse

Retina vs. Ribbon synapse

The retina is the innermost, light-sensitive "coat", or layer, of shell tissue of the eye of most vertebrates and some molluscs. The ribbon synapse is a type of neuronal synapse characterized by the presence of an electron-dense structure, the synaptic ribbon, that holds vesicles close to the active zone.

Similarities between Retina and Ribbon synapse

Retina and Ribbon synapse have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Action potential, Bipolar neuron, Central nervous system, Photoreceptor cell, Retina bipolar cell, Scotopic vision, Synapse.

Action potential

In physiology, an action potential occurs when the membrane potential of a specific axon location rapidly rises and falls: this depolarisation then causes adjacent locations to similarly depolarise.

Retina bipolar cell

As a part of the retina, bipolar cells exist between photoreceptors (rod cells and cone cells) and ganglion cells.

Synapse

In the nervous system, a synapse is a structure that permits a neuron (or nerve cell) to pass an electrical or chemical signal to another neuron or to the target efferent cell.
