VI – Blind spot
VII – Ciliary body
VIII – Iris
IX – Lens
X – Conjuctiva
(3aiii)
II – It controls eye movement
III – It has light-sensitive cells called photoreceptors, which transforms these into light rays into electrical impulses.
(V) It transmits impulse to the brain
(VII) It holds lens in place
(IX) It helps to refracts and focuses light rays that enters the eye
(3b)
(i) Bright light: Muscles of the iris contract, making pupil small and reduce the amount of light entering the eye.
(ii) Dim light: It tends to expand in dim light

(ii) Long–sightedness (hypermetropia)
(3cii)
(i) Short sightedness is corrected by wearing spectacles fitted with concave or diverging lenses
(ii) Long sightedness is corrected by using spectacles fitted with suitable convex or converging lenses
