Binocular vision
If an animal has an increased binocular vision they have a _______ percent of decussation at optic chiasm
decreased
Predators have a _______ percent of cross over/decussation
less
_______ are the three layers of the eye?
Fibours, Vascular (Uvea) and Nervous
_______ is apart of the fibours portion of the eye?
cornea and sclera
_______ is apart of the vascular (uvea) portion of eye
Choroid, ciliary body, iris
_______ is apart of the nervous portion of the eye
retina
Light is _______ as it passess through the the cornea and lens
refracted
light passing through the center of the cornea is _______ bent
NOT
Light is upside down and _______ on retina
reversed
_______ reflects light more than lens does
Cornea
lens _______s the image
Fine-tunes
to accommodate light the _______ of the lens can be altered
shape
to accommodate light _______ and _______ also help
suspensory ligaments and ciliary muscles
Lens can change shape and become rounder to _______ refraction for near vision or _______ for distance vision
Increase, thinner
_______ layer in choroid that increases light detection in dark conditions
Retroreflective
_______ is the retroreflective layer
tapetum lucidum
_______ layer is this: Absorbs light and prevents light scatter between photoreceptors; Convert trans-retinal to cis-retinal needed by photopreceptors
Pigment cell layer
_______ layer is this: Outer portion of rods and cones that contain light sensitive pigments
Photoreceptor layer
_______ layer is this: Cell bodies and nuclei of rods and cones
Outer nuclear layer
_______ layer is this: Synapses of photoreceptor cell axon terminals with dendrites of retinal interneurons (bipolar and horizontal cells
Outer plexiform layer
_______ layer is this: Cell bodies of retinal interneurons; Bipolar cells (B), Horizontal cells (H), Amacrine cells (A)
Inner nuclear layer
_______ layer is this: Synapses of retinal interneuron axon terminals with dendrites of ganglion
cells
Inner plexiform layer
_______ layer is this: Cell bodies of ganglion cells (G); These are the ‘output’ cells of the retina
Ganglion cell layer
_______ layer is this: Axons of ganglion cells traversing, the inner retina on their way to, the optic disk to the optic nerve
Optic nerve layer
Reflective layer in choroid thatincreases light detection in darkconditions
Tapetum lucidum
Retinal pigment epithelium lacks _______ overlying tapetum
melanin
Tapetum lucidum: Allows light to pass through and reflect back to stimulate _______
photoreceptors
Outer segment: contains photopigments specialized toabsorb light
Rod cell
_______ is involved in the rod cells that help absorb light?
Rhodopsin
