referred pain
creation of the brain spinal cord are sensory tracts that areshared by cutaneous impulses and visceral impulses.
visual dysfunction
nearsited ...can see near..farsited, cant see near..on test
vision
refraction-bending ray of lite, as it passes thru one to another
hearing
balance and equilibrium comes from inner ear three layers-outer,middle.inner=hearingequilibrium
outer ear
auricle and ear canal
middle ear
ear drum (tympanic membrane)
virbates when transmitted to the three auditory bones 1 Mallues, 2 incus, 3 stapes
inner ear
bony labyrinth
cochlea =hearing Utricle, saccule, and semicircular
canals= equilibrium
contains perilymph and endolymph
