Match the structures of the eye with their appropriate statement: Light enters the eye here. Control the shape of the lens. Focuses the light onto the back of the eye. Gives your eyes their color. The white of the eye. Watery fluid filling the anterior segment of the eye. Viscous liquid filling the posterior portion of the eye. Area of highest concentration of cones, and thus highest visual acuity. Part of the retina that lacks photoreceptors. Makes up the majority of the vascular layer. Contains the rod and cone photoreceptors. Forms the aqueous humor. 1. Aqueous humor 2. Choroid 3. Ciliary muscles of ciliary body 4. Ciliary processes of ciliary body 5. Cornea 6. Fovea centralis 7. Iris 8. Lens 9. Optic disc 10. Retina 11. Sclera 12. Vitreous humor

Match the feature of the eye with its function Structure Function Fovea centralis Pigmented to absorb light Regulates amount of light entering the eye Provides blood supply Point of exit for axons of retinal cells Optic disc Regulates thickness of lens Site of drainage of aqueous humor Scleral venous sinus Choroid coat Ciliary body
Part 6. Match the following parts of the eye to their function (ciliary body, pupil, sclera, iris, retina, lens, & tapetum lucidum) Contains the photoreceptors for vision. The colored portion of the eye. This structure changes shape to focus light on the retina. The opening in the iris through which light passes. The iridescent portion of the choroid layer in nocturnal animals. Consists of muscles, which control and shape the lens. The white of the eye.
