Question
Chapter 16, Problem 87P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The main reaction taking place in the rod cells of the retina needs to be explained. The role of geometry of the 11-cis retinal needs to be explained in this process.
Concept Introduction:
Molecules can undergo isomerization by absorbing energy. When light is absorbed by molecules, they can undergo isomerization reactions and form its isomer. Sufficient energy will be absorbed by light and necessary transformations will be occurred.

- A number of substances containing positively polarized carbon atoms have been labeled as "cancer suspect agents" (i.e., suspected carcinogens or cancer-inducing compounds). It has been suggested that the presence of such carbon atoms is responsible for the carcinogenic properties of these molecules.
