Floaters | Crystalized vitreous humor |
Retina | contains photoreceptors |
Photoreceptors | rods and cones |
Rods | Black and white many connect to one nerve. Blurry edges |
Cones | Color; each connects to a nerve. Crisp edges |

Mostly on periferal | Rods |
Choroid coat | Dark light absorbing layer |
Sclera | Thick "hard" white layer coating most of eye |
Worst vision | blind spot |
Lateral to blind spot only cones | Spot of best vision; fovea centralis |
Types of cones? | Blue see blue light, green see green light, red see green and red light |

Uses Olfactory Receptors | Nose for sense of smell |
Olfactory Hairs must be coated in _________ in order to smell | Mucus |
Olfactory nerve in the nose connects to the | Olfactory bulb of the brain |
Why is smell so emotional? | It goes directly to the limbic system (emotional system for the brain) |
Where is smell stored? | Temporal lobe |
Anosmias | Loss of smell due to injury, inflamation (cold), or age |
Sometimes epilepsy has a warning before seizures occur with.... | Olfactory auras |
Cataracts | Clouding of the lens |
Papillae | Bumps on tongue that contain taste buds |
Taste buds | Receptors for taste include the taste hairs |
