D Cochlea
ANSWER: Cochlea
Parts of eye | Description | Function |
Cornea | Transparent front surface of the eye | Its function is to focuses and refracts light onto the retina. |
Iris | Colored portion of the eye | Regulates the amount of light entering the eye (pupil size) |
Pupil | Dark circular opening in the center of the iris | Controls the amount of light entering the eye |
Lens | Transparent structure behind the iris | Refracts light further to focus it on the retina |
Retina | Layer of light-sensitive cells at the back of the eye | Converts light into electrical signals for the brain |
Fovea | Small depression in the center of the retina | Responsible for sharp central vision |
Optic Nerve | Bundle of nerve fibers that carries visual signals | Transmits visual information from the retina to the brain |
Sclera | White outer layer of the eye | Provides structural support and protection |
Choroid | Layer between the retina and sclera | Supplies blood to the retina and absorbs excess light |
Aqueous Humor | Clear fluid in the front chamber of the eye | Helps maintain eye pressure and nourishes the cornea |
Vitreous Humor | Gel-like substance filling the back of the eye | Helps maintain the eye’s shape and supports the retina |
Ciliary Muscles | Muscles surrounding the lens | Control the shape of the lens for focusing on near objects |
Optic Disk (Blind Spot) | Area where the optic nerve exits the eye | Lacks photoreceptors which results in no vision at this spot |
