a)

aqueous humor

b)

vitreous humor

c)

blind spot

d)

optic nerve

135.

The layer of light-sensitive cells at the back of the eye that detects images focused by the cornea and the lens is called the ___________________.

a)

blind spot

b)

sclera

c)

retina

d)

optic nerve

136.

The bundle of fibers that carry information from the retina to the brain is called the ____________________.

a)

optic nerve

b)

blind spot

c)

vitreous humor

d)

aqueous humor

137.

It is a thin protective covering of epithelial cells. It protects the cornea against damage by friction. It can become infected causing conjuctivitis.

a)

Conjunctiva

b)

Sclera

c)

Cornea

d)

Lens

138.

Is an opaque, fibrous, protective outer structure. It is soft connective tissue, and the spherical shape of the eye is maintained by the pressure of the liquid inside. It provides attachment surfaces for eye muscles

a)

Retina

b)

Conjunctiva

c)

Cornea

d)

Sclera

139.

Has a network of blood vessels to supply nutrients to the cells and remove waste products. It is pigmented that makes the retina appear black, thus preventing reflection of light within the eyeball.

a)

Retina

b)

Choroid

c)

Sclera

d)

Fovea

140.

Has suspensory ligaments that hold the lens in place. It secretes the aqueous humour, and contains ciliary muscles that enable the lens to change shape, during accommodation (focusing on near and distant objects)

a)

Ciliary body

b)

Iris

c)

Lens

d)

Retina

141.

Is a pigmented muscular structure consisting of an inner ring of circular muscle and an outer layer of radial muscle. Its function is to help control the amount of light entering the eye so that:

- too much light does not enter the eye which would damage the retina


- enough light enters to allow a person to see

a)

Iris

b)

Pupil

c)

Lens

d)

Retina

142.

Is a hole in the middle of the iris where light is allowed to continue its passage. In bright light it is constricted and in dim light it is dilated

a)

Cornea

b)

Iris

c)

Pupil

d)

Fovea

143.

Is a transparent, flexible, curved structure. Its function is to focus incoming light rays onto the retina using its refractive properties

a)

Lens

b)

Cornea

c)

Fovea

d)

Ciliary body

144.

Is a layer of sensory neurones, the key structures being photoreceptors (rod and cone cells) which respond to light. Contains relay neurones and sensory neurones that pass impulses along the optic nerve to the part of the brain that controls vision

a)

Fovea

b)

Choroid

c)

Retina

d)

Fovea

145.

A part of the retina that is directly opposite the pupil and contains only cone cells (photoreceptors responsible for colour vision). It is responsible for good visual acuity (good resolution)

a)

Blind spot

b)

Fovea

c)

Choroid

d)

Vitreous humour

146.

Is where the bundle of sensory fibres form the optic nerve; it contains no light-sensitive receptors

a)

Brain

b)

Blind spot

c)

Spinal Cord

d)

Central nervous system (CNS)

147.

Is a transparent, jelly-like mass located behind the lens. It acts as a ‘suspension’ for the lens so that the delicate lens is not damaged. It helps to maintain the shape of the posterior chamber of the eyeball.

a)

Anterior Humour

b)

Posterior Humour

c)

Aqueous Humour

d)

Vitreous humour

148.

Helps to maintain the shape of the anterior chamber of the eyeball

a)

Aqueous Humour

b)

Posterior humour

c)

Vitreous Humour

d)

Anterior humour
