loose
vascular
muscular
1. choroid
2.ciliary body
3. iris
Choroid is __________ conn. tissue and contains _________- ____________ that supply oxygen and nutrients
loose

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

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
Eye muscles are ________ muscle
Skeletal
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)
