The Special Sense |
Olfaction, Gustation, Vision, Equilibrium, Hearing |
|
Olfaction |
Smell |
|
Gustation |
Tasting |
|
Vision |
|
|
Equilibrium |
|
|
Hearing |
|
|
Accessory Structure |
-Eyebrows -Eyelids -Eyelashes -Lacrimal Gland -Nasal Lacrimal Duct |
|
Eyebrows |
Sweat Bands |
|
Eyelids |
Protect the eye from foreign objects and lubricates eyeball |
|
Eyelash |
Protect eye from particles |
|
Lacrimal Gland |
Tears produces |
|
Nasal Lacrimal Duct |
where excess tears drain |
|
External Structures of Eye |
-conjuntiva -Lacrimal Apparatus |
|
Conjuntiva |
-A mucus membrane lining inside of the eyelid -Forms conjuctival sac between eye and eyelid |
|
Conjunctivitis |
-Inflammation of conjunctival sac -Cornea is behind conjunctiva |
|
Inner Neural Tunic |
Retina (covers back of eyeball) |
|
Cornea |
light passes through to get into the eyeball |
|
Lacrimal Appratus |
secretes lysozyme tears form then collect lacrimal lake then drains to nasal cavity |
|
3 Layers of the Eye |
1. Outer Fibrous tunic 2. Middle Vascular Tunic 3. Inner Neural Tunic |
|
Outer Fibrous Tunic |
-very thick layer -Sclera/ cornea |
|
Middle Vascular Tunic |
-Blood flow -Choroid ciliary body, iris (eye color) |
|
Cavities of Eye |
-large posterior cavity -smaller anterior cavity |
|
Smaller Anterior Cavity |
-Anterior chamber: extends from cornea to iris -Posterior chamber: between iris, ciliary body, & lens |
|
Iris |
-control light coming in *Pupillary constrictor muscle: constricts pupil -makes small: increased light *Pupillary dilator muscles (dilate pupil) pupil gets large: less light |
|
Ciliary Body |
Pull or relax lens as you focus -contains muscle attaching to suspensory ligaments |
|
Choroid |
Vascular Tunic: supply oxygen/nutrients to the retina |
|
Neural Tunic (retina) |
1. Outer pigmented part: absorbs light ---> BOUNCE 2. Inner neural part: Contains visual receptors and associated neurons |
