Abstract

The granular material found in the 4 sectors of the crystalline cone of varying electron density possibly causes a different absorption of incident polarized light. As the quadrants of the crystalline cone are rotated against the quadrants of the rhabdom, we can conclude that each rhabdomere may be stimulated by light of different physical qualities consequently providing a 4-to 8-fold pattern in the rhabdom of the ommatidia.
