travels through the cornea, aqueous humor, lens, and vitreous humor before being focused on the retina during normal vision Refraction by the cornea and humors is constant, whereas the lens changes its shape to be either more or less convex as needed The greater the convexity, the more light is bent Page Ref: 311 Bloom’s: 2) Comprehension 2) Why are there two humors within the eye? Explain the location and role of each humor Answer: The aqueous humor is located within the anterior segment (chamber) of the eye The anterior segment is located anterior to the lens The vitreous humor is located within the posterior segment (chamber) of the eye The posterior segment is located posterior to the lens Both humors prevent the eyeball from collapsing and maintain intraocular pressure The aqueous humor also nourishes the avascular lens and cornea Page Ref: 305, 310 Bloom’s: 2) Comprehension 3) Describe the role of the lens in vision Name and explain the disease caused by the hardening of the lens Answer: The lens is the only structure in the eye that can change shape to refract light The lens becomes more or less convex in order to properly focus light on the retina Cataracts are caused when the lens becomes increasingly hard and opaque Vision becomes hazy and blindness can occur in the affected eye Page Ref: 305, 308, 310 Bloom’s: 2) Comprehension 4) Describe the pathway of sound waves that result in the sensation of hearing Answer: Sound waves enter the pinna and are transmitted down the external acoustic canal until they hit the tympanic membrane and cause it to vibrate Vibration of the tympanic membrane then causes the ossicles of the middle ear to vibrate, which in turn presses on the oval window of the inner ear Vibration of the oval window sets the fluids of the inner ear in motion Movement of the cochlear fluids then stimulates the hair cells of the spiral organ of Corti, which in turn transmit impulses along the cochlear nerve to the auditory cortex in the temporal lobe, where interpretation of sound occurs Page Ref: 320 Bloom’s: 2) Comprehension 5) Explain static and dynamic equilibrium and their interrelationships Answer: Static equilibrium is regulated by the maculae of the vestibule The maculae report on the position of the head with respect to the pull of gravity when the body is at rest Each macula is a patch of receptor cells embedded in the otolithic membrane The otolithic membrane contains otoliths which roll in response to changes in the pull of gravity This movement causes the hair cells of the membrane to bend, sending impulses along the vestibular nerve to the cerebellum, relating information regarding the position of the head in space Dynamic equilibrium is regulated by the semicircular canals The crista ampullaris of the membranous semicircular canal consists of a tuft of hair cells and their gelatinous cap called the cupula Movement of the head causes the cupula to move in the opposite direction, stimulating the hair cells, which then transmit impulses up the vestibular nerve to the cerebellum Static and dynamic equilibrium work together to provide information to the cerebellum to help control balance Page Ref: 317 Bloom’s: 2) Comprehension 6) Your elderly neighbor wears hearing aids Without them, he can’t hear you knocking on his door Do you think he wears the hearing aids for sensorineural deafness or conduction deafness? Explain your choice and differentiate between the causes of these two types of deafness Answer: The neighbor likely has conduction deafness, a condition for which hearing aids is helpful Conduction deafness results when something interferes with the transmission of sound to the inner ear structures, such as ear wax buildup or fusion of the ossicles Sensorineural deafness results from degeneration or damage to the spiral organ of Corti, the cochlear nerve, or the neurons of the auditory cortex In other words, the hearing aids assist with helping those hear who have mechanical problems with their ear structures (conduction deafness) rather than those with nervous system problems (sensorineural deafness) Page Ref: 321 Bloom’s: 4) Analysis 7) Identify the five basic taste receptors and describe what each type of receptor detects Answer: Sweet receptors respond to sugars, saccharine, some amino acids, and some lead salts Sour receptors respond to acidic solutions (those with a high concentration of hydrogen ions) such as lemons, oranges, and tomatoes Bitter receptors respond to alkaloids Salty receptors respond to metal ions in solution Umami receptors respond to a specific amino acid, glutamate, found in proteins Page Ref: 325 Bloom’s: 1) Knowledge
