Answer:

Explanation:

Anatomically, the space between the iris and cornea is the anterior chamber. It contains a clear gel-like liquid called aqueous humour.

Answer 2

Answer:

a. anterior chamber  

Explanation:

In the eye there are three compartments, which are as follows: 1) Anterior chamber, 2) Posterior chamber and 3) Vitreous space.

The anterior chamber is a structure located between the cornea and the iris. It is filled with a fluid called aqueous humor that provides the necessary elements for the metabolism of eye structures that are avascular (which do not receive nutritional benefits from blood) such as the cornea and the lens.
