<p>Structure of eye </p>

Structure of eye

Cornea - transparent , protect + referact light

Iris - control amount of light entering

Pupil - allow light into eye (eye color)

Retina - contain cone and rod cell

Optic nerve - carry electrical impulse to brain

Lenses - change shape and focus on light on retina

18
New cards

Pupil Reflex

Protect Retina from damage in bright light and not seeing in dim light

19
New cards

Cone cell

  • high concentration in fovea

  • for color, bright light

  • 3 type (red.green.blue)

20
New cards

Rod cell

  • everywhere but in fovea

  • black and white

21
New cards

Dim light

  • pupil dilate, allow more light in

  • DRC = radical contract

22
New cards

Bright light

  • pupil contract, precent too much light to entering and damage retina

  • BCC = circular contract

23
New cards

Distant, Far

  • lenses thin

  • suspensory ligament tight

26
New cards

Endocrine Gland

Produce and release hormone into bloodstream

  • Adrenal, Ovaries, Testes

27
New cards

Ductless Gland

Excrete hormone into blood, travel to target audience and cause change in cell

28
New cards

Adrenal Gland

  • produce adrenaline hormone (flight/fight response in danger)

  • increase blood glucose concentration

29
New cards

Adrenaline

  • increase heart rate (pump faster + deeper)

  • increase breathing rate (inhale more O)

  • increase pupil diameter (let more light in)

30
New cards

Pancreas

Produce insulin ( decrease glucose con.) and glucagon (increase glucose con.)

31

38
New cards

Cold

  • Blood vessel away skin contract

  • skeletal muscle contract+ relax = shivering = more energy release = heat from muscle

44
New cards

Auxin (plant hormone)

  • at shaded area of plant

  • transport down shoot

  • elongation at shady site = grow faster = bend towards light

45
New cards

Diabetes Mellitus (can’t control glucose conc)

Type 1 = lack insulin

Type 2 = lack insulin receptor

46
New cards

Antibiotic (Penicillin, Fungi Penicillium)

Kill bacteria by cell bursting / inhabit growth of bacteria

47
New cards

Antibiotic resistant

  • bacterial mutate due to natural selection

  • become immune to antibiotic , when antibiotic release some not kills

  • so become resistant and reproduce

48

92
New cards

HIV (virus)

attack immune system , weaken body ability = less lympocytes = weaken body ability to fight disease

  • avoid being destroyed by lympocyte by changing protien coat

  • infect lympocyte and use it to multiply so less L

  • less anitbiotic made = cant find infection
