Explanation:

Feature detectors are neurons that respond specifically to particular visual - shape or pattern stimuli. Rods and cones are photoreceptor cells for light - intensity and color. Bipolar cells and ganglion cells are part of the neural pathway in the retina but not specialized for detecting specific shapes or patterns like feature detectors.
