Can dogs see in the dark?
While cats can reign as world champions for night vision, dog lovers can rejoice: their cute dogs can also move in close proximity, if not as smart as their cats companions. How can dogs get when the lights go out and scales 20/20, or can dogs have an eye on people?
Dog visibility in the dark comes from their eye structure. They have big pupils who allow more light. Your retina contains many cells that are sensitive to light and movement, called the bars. They distinguish the light from the shadow. And most importantly, in the eyes of dogs, for example, in the eyes of cats, some birds and fish, as well as nightly disciples, there is a mirror-like membrane called tapetum lucidum on the back of the eye. The carpet gives a light that does not absorb coils to bump into the retina, allowing it to absorb more light, allowing the dog to better see.
But do dogs look better than humans? The simple answer is that they see differently and in some cases better. Dogs see gray hues, but the human world is brightly colored. The human retina has more conical cells that differ in color, while dog networks have more rods, which need much less light to detect gray spectrum. In a trap or inner semicircle a dog can be seen more clearly than a man. The bars are also sensitive to movement, allowing the dogs to detect smaller movements and quickly detect a stranger or their abduction. It is useful for hunting night or watching.
A professor of comparative ophthalmology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison estimates that the dog can see five times less than the human eye needs (cats need about one sixth of the light that people should see in the dark). )
Since the dog's eyes are in front of his face and not on the head as a horse, he has a good binocular vision, which allows him to simultaneously use both eyes to see the object. But depending on the distance from this object, the dog can see an obscure contour instead of a bicycle or a barn, because the dog is able to focus on the details is not as clear as a person. Dog eyesight is estimated at about 20/75, which means that within 20 feet, the dog will see something as clear as a person is 75 feet away. For dogs dedicated to Lassie's TV reps, we will most likely see the film's adventures of the colony as one frame after another movement, rather than scenes, because dogs see glittering light better than humans.
Dog is also noticeably lower than human vision. Regardless of whether you see it from the height of the Chihuahua pint or a large Danish perspective, the world looks different and much closer to the ground for dogs.
Like cats, dogs have such hideous eyes that glow in the dark, which seems to flow like independent lantern beams, which smile even unconcentrated night-time pedestrians. This phenomenon is known as the eyeshine. This happens when the unstable light is reflected in the eye tapetum lucidum, that the membrane layer is similar to the mirror, just like the light is reflected in the mirror. The next time you walk in Fido's frozen afternoon, not whispering, "Go, go!" Take a moment to wonder about the golden orphans that shine on you from the tip of the strap.
