Functions of Sclera

Outer covering of eye

Functions of Optic Nerve

Carries nerve impulses from eye to brain

Functions of Extrinsic Muscles

move the eye

Functions of Cornea

transparent tissue allowing light to enter eye

Functions of Pupil

Opening in eye allowing light to enter, size is regulated to alter amount of light entering

Functions of Vitreous Humor

Jelly-like material, helps to maintain eye shape

Functions of Lens

Focuses incoming light onto the retina

Functions of Iris

Helps control the size of the pupil

Functions of Ciliary Body

Helps control the shape of the lens to focus light on the retina

Functions of Choroid

Absorbs excess light in the eye

Functions of Retina

Converts the incoming light into electrical impulses for interpretation by the brain via specialized receptors

Functions of Superior Rectus Muscle

Elevates the eye

Functions of Medial Rectus Muscle

adducts of the eye

Functions of Inferior Rectus Muscle

Depresses the eye

Functions of Superior Oblique Muscle

Depresses and internally rotates the eye

Functions of Inferior Oblique Muscle

Extortion and elevation of the eye

Function of Auricle

Collects sound waves and funnels them into the external auditory meatus

Functions of External Auditory Meatus

Funnels sound waves to the tympanic membrane

Functions of Tympanic Membrane

Converts sound waves in to mechanical movement

Functions of Eustachian Tube

Allows for equalization of air pressure between the environment and the inner ear

Functions of Cochlea

Converts mechanical motion from sound waves into electrical impulses for interpretation by the brain

Functions of Malleus

Connects the tympanic membrane to the incus

Functions of Incus

Connects the malleus to the stapes

Functions of Stapes

Connects the incus to the oval window

Functions of Oval Window

Connects to the stapes, allows mechanical movement from the ossicles to enter the cochlea


Functions of Semicircular Canals

Contain fluid to detect movement and orientation of the head

Functions of Round window

Allows fluid in the cochlea to move (vibrate)

Cranial Nerve VII

Transmits electrical impulses from the inner ear to the brain, interpreted as sound or equilibrium, depending on receptors stimulated
