sasho [114]3 years ago

Scientists used gene therapy to restore the sight of the dogs who suffer from inherited blindness.

Inherited blindness is identified as retinitis pigmentosa. It is the <span>progressive loss of both the rods and the cones photoreceptors in the retina from the edge of the retina to the centre, leading to worsening tunnel vision caused by the loss of peripheral sight

</span>A human gene that enabled cells in the retina to become sensitive to light is added into the retina cells. The scientists then inject a chemical called "photoswitch" in the eye. It attaches itself to the <span>ion channel protein and enables the full conversion of light into an electrical signal relayed to the brain.</span>

At rest the lens of the eye will be more round when the ciliary muscles are contracted true or false
matrenka [14]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Yes, the lens of the eye will be more spherical when the ciliary muscles are contracted due to tension. When the relaxation occurs in the ciliary muscle , the zonular tension is increased, that causes the lens to be flatten and leads to decrease in optical power while on the other hand, when the ciliary muscle contracts, the tension in the equatorial zonular is increased which causes the central lens surface to become more rounded that leads to increases central optical power.
