4. The Eye  Function  The eyes are organs of vision and are located in a bony protective cavity of the skull called the orbit  Structures of the Eye  Sclera  outer protective layer of the eye; the portion seen on the anterior portion of the eyeball is referred to as the white of the eye

5. The Eye  Cornea  transparent anterior part of the sclera, which is anterior to the aqueous humor and lies over the iris. It allows the light rays to enter the eye  Choroid  middle layer of the eye, which is interlaced with many blood vessels that supply nutrients to the eye  Iris  the pigmented muscular structure that regulates the amount of light entering the eye by controlling the size of the pupil

6. The Eye  Pupil  opening in the center of the iris  Lens  lies directly behind the pupil; its function is to focus and bend light  Retina  innermost layer of the eye, which cntains the vision receptors  Aqueous humor  watery liquid found in the anterior cavity of the eye. It provides nourishment to nearby structures and maintains shape in the anterior part of the eyes

7. The Eye  Vitreous humor  jellylike substance found behind the lens in the posterior cavity of the eye that maintains its shape  Meibomian glands  oil glands found in the upper and lower edges of the eyelids that help lubricate the eye  Lacrimal glands and ducts  produce and drain tears  Optic nerve  carries visual impulses from the retina to the brain  Conjunctiva  mucous membrane lining the eyelids and covering the anterior portion of the sclera

25. The Ear  The Function  The two functions of the ear are to hear and to provide the sense of balance  Sound waves vibrate through the ear where they are transformed into nerve impulses  The Structure  The ear is made up of three parts: the external ear, the middle ear, and the inner ear (or labyrinth)

26. The Ear  External Ear  Auricle (pinna) – external structure located on both sides of the head. Directs sound waves into external auditory canal  External auditory canal (meatus) – short tube that ends at the tympanic membrane. The inner part lies within the temporal bone of the skull and contains the glands that secrete earwax (cerumen)  Middle Ear  Tympanic membrane – semitransparent membrane that separates the external auditory canal and the middle ear cavity. Transmits sound vibrations to ossicles

27. The Ear  Eustachian tube – connects the middle ear and the pharynx. Equalizes air pressure on both sides of eardrum  Ossicles – bones of the middle ear that carry vibrations. Composed of the malleus (hammer), incus (anvil), and stapes (stirrup). Stapes connects to the oval window, which transmits the sound vibrations to the cochlea of the inner ear  Labyrinth (inner ear)  bony spaces within the temporal bone of the skull.

28. The Ear  Cochlea – snail-shaped and contains the organ of hearing. Connects to the oval window in middle ear  Semicircular canals and Vestibule – contains receptors and endolymph that help the body maintain its sense of balance (equilibrium)  Mastoid bone and cells  located in the skull bone behind the external auditory canal
