3 Define the term sense organ.

Sense organs pertain to the various organs or structures that consist of

..................................................................................................................................................
specialized nerve endings. These nerve endings in the sense organs are capable
of detecting and reacting to a stimulus. In humans, there are fundamentally five
..................................................................................................................................................
senses, they are sight, smell, hearing, taste, and touch.

5 The eye is adapted for focusing on near and distant objects.

The diagram shows the parts of the eye involved in focusing. The eye is focused on a distant object.

Describe and explain the changes that occur in the eye when adjusting focus from a distant object
to a near object.
At first, when the eye before closing the iris contracts in dum light it was in a
..................................................................................................................................................
normal size, but when we diel the experiment with flash light, the iris releases in
bright light, it gets more smaller than before. This is becuase the iris contains
..................................................................................................................................................
muscle. Ciricular muscle are arranged in circles around the pupil, when they
contract, they malce the pupil get smaller.
