Solution

All of the statements A-E about neurons in the eye are true.

A) Photoreceptor cells in the eye do indeed convert light energy into neuronal signals.

B) These photoreceptors then send these signals to ganglion cells.

C) Bipolar cells also send signals to ganglion cells.

D) The signaling from photoreceptors to bipolar cells, and then from bipolar cells to ganglion cells, is indeed unidirectional.

E) There are also horizontal cells and amacrine cells present on the retina.

Therefore, none of the statements A-E are false.
