- Identify the INCORRECT statement about the
physical structure of the visual system:
- Incoming light passes through the photoreceptor cell body before being absorbed in the outer segment
- At the fovea, the other retinal cell layers fall away creating a small dip to let light fall directly on the photoreceptor cells
- The passage of the optic nerve through the retina causes a blind spot in the visual field
- The fovea has more rod cells than cone cells
Homework Answers
Correct statements are a, b, c
Incorrect statement : d
Reason: Fovea centralis is a pit located at center of macula lutea of the eye. This pit Fovea mainly consists of cone cells only.

Light first passes through the _____________, a transparent covering of the eye, then through the _____________, the opening in the iris. Then the light passes through the _____________, which changes shape to focus the light so that it properly hits the retina. The light travels through the vitreous humor of the eye and then strikes the _____________, layers of cells in the back of the eye. The deepest layer of the retina is made of ____________, of which there are...
