QUIZ #3: BODY CONTROL AND INTERACTION WITH ENVIRONMENT
THE EYE HAS MANY STRUCTURES BUILT INTO IT WHICH ENABLE US TO SEE. IT IS COMPOSED OF THE THREE LAYERS. THE OUTERMOST LAYER COMPOSED OF THE FIBROUS MATERIAL IS CALLED THE (SCLERA). THIS LAYER STRETCHES AROUND THE FRONT OF THE EYE AND BECOMES TRANSPARENT. AT THIS POINT IT IS CALLED THE (CORNEA). THE MIDDLE LAYER THE (CHOROID),IS MADE OF A DARKLY PIGMENTED TISSUE. THE THIRD OR INNER LAYER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE RECEPTION OF THE LIGHT RAYS AND THE TRANSLATION OF THAT STIMULUS INTO AN IMPULSE FOR THE OPTIC NERVE, WHICH TAKES IT TO THE BRAIN FOR INTERPRETATION OF THE IMAGE. THIS LIGHT SENSITIVE LAYER IS CALLED THE (RETINA). LIGHT ENTERS THE EYE VIA A CIRCULAR OPENING CALLED THE (PUPIL). THIS EYE PART CAN BE OPENED OR CONSTRICTED BY A SPECIAL COLORED PART OF THE MIDDLE EYE LAYER CALLED THE (IRIS) , WHICH ACTS MUCH AS THE SHUTTER ON A CAMERA WORKS. THE LIGHT IS FOCUSED ON TO THE LIGHT SENSITIVE INNER LAYER BY THE (LENS) WHICH CAN BE CHANGED IN SHAPE BY THE CILIARY MUSCLE!!!!!!
