all of the choices 

They only have one photopigment, called Rhodopsin.

They have a less efficient light-activated enzyme cascade.

They only absorb light at one wavelength.

They have less photopigment than cones.

They recover to be more sensitive than cones.

are equal across the retina.

 are smallest in the region of the retina with highest visual acuity.

are smallest at the optic disk and largest at the fovea.

are largest in the peripheral retina and smallest at the optic disk.

are smallest in the peripheral retina and increase as you move to the fovea.
