When you enter a dark theater on a bright day, it takes an appreciable interval of time before you can see well enough to find an empty seat. Which of the computational processes of the human visual system explained in the Gonzales and Woods text book are at play in this situation and how?

As we do not have the text book, we cannot link the answer to that information. However, we can still try to explain what the process is like for the eyes to adjust to the dark.

The phenomenon described in this example is known as "dark adaptation." This usually takes about 20-30 seconds, depending on the intensity of the light in the previous surroundings (in this case, it was a bright day). The reason why we are able to see in a wide variety of environments is because of the photoreceptors found in our retina. These are light-sensitive cells, and are divided into cones and rods. The interaction of cones (day vision) and rods (night vision) is what results in "dark adaptation."

dear friend:

  i hope this letter finds you in soaring spirits and vibrant health. as you had expressed the wish to know about culture, traditions, and unity of india in your previous letter, in the following lines i have tried my best to give you glimpses of our culture, traditions, and unity. you will be amazed to know that our culture is the oldest culture in the world and the birth place of hinduism, buddhism, jainism, and sikhism. you won’t find any other culture as varied and multi-colored, multi-lingual as ours. each region has its own unique culture, traditions, language. there are 22 official languages in india.

  basically, india is a spiritual country with orthodox traditions. for example the people of india believe in traditions set by their wise forefathers. arranged marriages, joint-family system, universal brotherhood, vegetarianism, celebrating festivals such as diwali, holi, eid, etc., are the salient features of our culture and traditions.

  another unique aspect about our country is ‘unity in diversity’. in spite of the multi-lingual, multi-religious, multi-traditional, multi-cultural society, people live peacefully together, respecting one another’s views, cultures, traditions, and differences. i am sure you would love to visit india soon, and have a first-hand experience of the multi-colored culture. give regards to uncle and aunt. do visit india with your family and experience our hospitality.

your friend,
