Answer:

The correct answer is E.

Explanation:

The choroid is a vascular layer of the eye that lays <em>between the retina and the sclera.</em> Its main function is to supply oxygen and nutrients to the outer layers of the retina. The layers of the choroid are:

• Haller's layer

• Sattler's layer

• Choriocapillaris

• Bruch's membrane  (in contact with the retinal pigment ephitelium)

The choroid is part of the uveal tract, which also contains the iris and the ciliary body.

solniwko [45]

Answer:

Experiments

Explanation:

The ancient Greek philosophers spent more time philosophising and thinking about scientific explanations to phenomena in the natural world.

How ever, they relied solely on reasoning while attempting to explain scientific observations. Contemporarily, science is highly empirical. The scientific process can only be complete when scientific observations are subjects to rigorous experiments in order go determine the actual relationship between variables and provide better explanation for scientific observations.

Hence the ancient Greek philosophers should have used experiments rather than sole reason in proffering scientific explanations to natural phenomena.

This is called <span>thigmotropism

It comes from ancient Greek and basically means to touch in a certain direction. They don't, however, only react to touch; they react to things like wind too in order to latch and not be separated when there's wind blowing on them. </span>
