Behavioral Science 2.2

Question 1

Sclera

Answer 1

Structural layer also the white of the eye

Question 2

choroidal Vessels

Answer 2

between the sclera and retina

Question 3

Retina

Answer 3

Contains photo receptors the transduce light into electrical signals

Question 4

Anterior chamber

Answer 4

Space outside of the Iris

Question 5

Posterior chamber

Answer 5

Space between the iris and the lens

Question 6

Cornea

Answer 6

Clear dome that focuses light onto the lens

Question 7

Dilator pupillae

Answer 7

Opens the Iris under sympathetic stimulation

Question 8

Constrictor pupillae

Answer 8

Muscle that constricts the people under Parasympathetic stimulation

Question 9

Ciliary body

Answer 9

Connects the cord to the Iris and produces aqueous humor

Question 10

Aqueous humor

Answer 10

The solution that bass the front part of the eye

Question 11

Canal of schlemm

Answer 11

Drains aqueous humor

Question 12

Lens

Answer 12

Controls the refraction of incoming light shining onto the retina

Question 13

Ciliary muscle

Answer 13

Controls the shape of the lens

Question 14

Suspensory ligament

Answer 14

Connects the ciliary muscle to the lens

Question 15

Vitreous humor

Answer 15

Transparent gel that supports the retina

Question 16

Retina and Duplexity

Answer 16

The retina contains two types of photo receptors specialized for light/dark detection and for color detection

Question 17

Cones

Answer 17

Photo receptors on the retina that detect color(6 million) three types of cones detecting short medium and long wavelengths of light

Question 18

rods

Answer 18

Sense light or darkness using a Single pigment rhodopsin

Question 19

Fovea

Answer 19

Central Point in the eye or light is focused contains a high concentration of cones moving away from this point concentration decreases

Question 20

Bipolar cells

Answer 20

Connect rods and cones and highlight gradients between nearby photo receptors

Question 21

Ganglion cells in the eye

Answer 21

Collect signals from bipolar cells group together to form the optic nerve

Question 22

Amacrine And horizontal cells

Answer 22

Receive inputs from multiple retinal cells in the same area and accentuate slight differences between the visual information.

Question 23

Optic chiasm

Answer 23

Crossover and separation of the visual fields(right side of both eyes go to the same place and left side of both eyes at the same place)

Question 24

Optic tracts

Answer 24

Nerve pathways after the chiasm

Question 25

Projection areas in the brain for visual processing

Answer 25

Lateral geniculate nucleus temporal and parietal lobe‘s and the visual cortex of the occipital lobe

Question 26

Parallel processing

Answer 26

Tenuously analyzing color shape in motion and comparing it to memory to determine different events or objects.

Question 27

parvocellular cells

Answer 27

Key in shape detection. Hi color spatial resolution only work with stationary or slow moving objects as they have a low temporal resolution

Question 28

Magnocellular cells

Answer 28

High temporal resolution and low spatial resolution.
