The cornea does most of the focusing of the light onto the retina, and the lens allows for more accuracy of focusing.

The cornea is the outer transparent some-shaped structure that covers the iris and the pupil. The cornea directs light rays into the eye and helps focus them on the light-sensitive retina at the back of the eye, providing sharp, clear vision. The cornea provides 65-75% of your eye's focusing power. The cornea does not contain any blood vessels, but instead contains many nerve endings that make it extremely sensitive and that is the reason why s scratch or even a loose eyelashes is so painful.
The lens on the other hand, is composed of transparent, flexible tissue and is located directly behind the iris and the pupil. Light passes through the pupil to the lens. Small muscles attached to the lens can make the lens change shape, allowing the eyes to focus on near or far objects. The lens provides 25-35% of the eye's focusing power.

The answer is cornea…..lens. Most bending of light entering the eye is bent by the cornea. The lens of the other hand adjusts this bending further, to focus it squarely on the retina. This is why the focal point of the lens can be adjusted by changing its shape.

The first thing to do is activate EMS. Use cool or cold water to cool the burn for 10 minutes as soon as possible. ( Do not use ice or frozen compress.) Early cooling will minimize the depth of injury and decrease pain. Remove jewelry near the affected area. Cover the injury with dry, clean pad loosely to protect it. Do not give food or drink to injured person. Keep him comfortable until EMS arrives and takes over.

Your assignment in biology lab is to design an experiment that would detect whether a substance is breaking down, or digesting,

Elis [28]

Answer: Option B

Explanation: First we should understand the role of enzyme and acid here. Pepsin is an enzyme which will break down proteins into simple monomers (like amino acids). And, acid causes digestion which means it will break down the protein into its respective elements and compounds. Water will act as a control in this experiment.

Option B is correct because it has all three criteria- 1. Control [water + protein] 2. With enzyme [egg white + pepsin] 3. With acid and enzyme

So this will give us an idea whether pepsin alone is breaking down the protein or digesting it. And there would be difference in test tube B and C. So this will clear the difference.

Option A is incorrect because it has not mentioned any different test tube for checking what happened with the protein. And, Option C is incorrect because mass of egg white will remain same after digestion also.

disa [49]

Answer:

The ozone layer is being depleted due to CFC's. CFC's are found in aersoal spray cans and refrigants, when they are released into the atmosphere it causes depletion of the ozone layer. Humans are the one who made the CFC's, causing the ozone layer to deplete, even though they have been banned now, a lot of damage has been done.
