Mrs. Chirichella
This portion of the outer tunic is referred to as the “white of the eye”.
sclera
Know the location and function of the following eye structures:
This structure is clear, refracts light, and is convex in shape.
Lens
This area is where the retina and the optic nerve join; contains no rods or cones; “blind spot”
Optic disc
This area has the highest concentration of cones; the focal point of light needs to converge here for the sharpest vision.
Fovea centralis
An inner tunic layer; contains rods & cones.
Retina
This structure regulates the amount of light entering the eye.
Iris
Transparent, non-vascular structure; most anterior of outer tunic.
cornea
Floaters cast a shadow on your retina as they pass through this…
The vitreous humor
Night blindness is most commonly caused bya. damage to the corneab. damage to the optic nervec. an improper dietd. a toxic effect of vitamin A
Why?
Because of a LACK of vitamin A
This tube connects the middle ear to the throat. Aka-the Eustachian tube.
Auditory canalAuditory canal/tube
Know the location and function of the following ear structures:
Improperly blowing your nose could pass an infection to which part of your ear?
The middle ear
This structure- begins the middle ear; the malleus is attached to; vibrates from sound waves.
Tympanic membrane
The stapes vibrates this membrane attached to the cochlea. Causing waves in the perilymph.
Oval windowOval window
Auricle
The outer fleshy portion of the ear.
auricle
Auditory ossicle that is attached to the eardrum. Passes the vibration to the incus.
malleus
An infection in this structure could cause dizziness.
Semicircular canals Semicircular canals
Put the following in order as light passes through the eye.
cornea
aqueous humor lens
vitreous humor
List the parts of the eye that light passes as it enters the eye.
1. cornea
2. aqueous humor
3. lens
4. vitreous humor
What is the name of the natural pain suppressor in the body?

The scala tympani and the scala vestibule are part of the:a. middle earb. vestibulec. cochlead. anterior chamber of the eye
Cross section through the cochlea
When these are distorted (bent) against the tectorial membrane, an action potential is sent to the brain.
Put the following in order that scents must travel to reach the brain:limbic systemolfactory tractcortex of temporal lobeolfactory bulb
olfactory bulb- olfactory tract-limbic system-cortex of temporal lobe

Which part of the brain deciphers taste?a. temporal lobeb. parietal lobec. frontal lobed. occipital lobe
Put the following events of hearing in order:

1. Sound waves are channeled down the ear canal2. The tympanic membrane vibrates3. The malleus moves the incus4. The incus moves the stapes5. The stapes pushes the oval window
Which general category of sensory receptors detects variations in temperature?a. thermoreceptorsb. mechanoreceptorsc. photoreceptorsd. pain receptors
The otoliths are located in:a. the middle earb. the semi-circular canalsc. the cochlead. the saccule in the vestibule
The receptors in the utricle and saccule are stimulated when:a. endolymph flows over the spiral organb. the otoliths bend cilia in response to gravityc. the tympanic membrane vibratesd. perilymph bends hair cells
Which of the five senses contains two types of photoreceptors called rods and cones?a. visionb. hearingc. smelld. taste
Rods function ina. color visionb. dim light visionc. bright light vision
The sets of color receptors/cones within the retina are sensitive to lights that area. red, green, and blueb. red, blue, and yellowc. green, yellow, and purpled. orange, green, and purple
