Choroid is __________ conn. tissue and contains _________- ____________ that supply oxygen and nutrients
|
loose
blood vessels |
|
The ciliary body is the ____________ continuation of choroid and contains _________ muscle called ciliary muscle which controls the ________ of lens and is essential for __________
|
anterior
smooth shape focus |
|
Iris gives the eye ______ and is composed of ___________ muscle which regulates the amount of ______ entering the eye and changes the ______ of pupil
|
color
smooth light size |
|
The posterior cavity contains the _______ cavity which fills most of eye is not replaced and helps keep the _______ in place.
|
vitreous
retina |
|
This is the neural portion of eye and contains both _________________ (name both)associated with CN ___
|
photo receptors:
-rods-nightvision, black adnd white vision, peripheral vision -cones-bright light,daylightvision, color vision, central vision II |
|
Olfaction more important than vision?
|
NO, therefore many inactive olfactory nerves in humans unlike animals
|
|
Visual Pathway?
|
ifo travels to optic nerves- via optic chaiasm- to opti tract- via thalamus-to visual cortex in occipital lobe

|
6 eye muscles
|
(III)Inferior rectus-eye look down
(III)medial rectus-eye looks medially (III)superior rectus-eye looks up (VI)lateral rectus-eye looks laterally (III)inferior oblique-eye looks up and alterally(rolling of eyes) (IV)superior oblique (rolling of eyes looks down and laterally |
|
The ________of the auricle helps us hear human voices
|
shape
|
|
sounds waves travel along ________ _____ _________
|
external ear canal
|
|
Where do sound waves arrive?
|
tympanic membrane (it vibrates)
|
|
When tympanic membrane vibrates the _______ (little bones) in the _________ ear move
|
ossicles
middle |
|
Hearing Process:
|
sound wave travels through:
tympanic membrane to malleus to incus to stapes to the OVAL WINDOW |
|
What does the movement of stapes and oval window generate? and where?
|
pressure waves
in the cochlea in inner ear |
|
The cochlea contains ________ circular chambers which creates _________ along the mebrane of a smaller __________ chamber which CONTAINS the ____________ for hearing
|
3
vibrations medium receptors |
|
What is the floor of the middle chamber in hearing process called?
|
basilar membrane
|
|
what are embedded in the basilar membrane?
|
hair cells (it moves when the B.M moves)
|
|
The tops of hair cells are embedded in the ________ membrane which does NOT move and therefore _________ the haire cells
|
tectorial
bends |
|
When hair cells are bent that opens _____ channels in hair cell membranes
|
ion-they ush into hair cell membrane and ACTIVATES hair cells and stimulate CN VIII
|
|
After hair cells are bent and ions rush in hearing info travels via?
|
thalamus to auditory cortex in temporal lobe where it reaches CONSCIOUSNESS
|
|
The middle ear is connected to the ________ by the ____________ tube
|
nasopharynx
auditory |
|
The vestibular apparatus is also in the ____________ ear and connected to CN ____ and is associated with__________________ and _____________
|
inner
VIII equilibrium balance |
|
The vetibular apparatus is composed of :
|
semicircular canals
saccule and utricle |
|
The vestibular apparatus has ____________________ canals that contain ______ stimulated by head rotation
|
semicircular
receptors |
|
Each semicircular canal contains a ________ which contains receptors (hair cells)
|
cupula
|
|
Does the fluid in semicircular canals automatically rotate with the bone?
|
NO-this causes cupula to bend
|
|
What are the hair cells stimulated by that are located in the saccule and utricle?
|
by gravity
|
|
hair cells are embedded in gel like material containing calcium carbonate crystals called?
|
otolith
|
|
The otolith moves when body moves due to _________ and ____________
|
acceleration
decceleration bends hair cells-open ion channels and activates hair cells which stimulates CN VIII (maintain balance) |
