Answer:

The correct answer is: Pupil.

Explanation:

  • Light enters inside the side through a small opening in the iris of the eye which is called the Pupil.
  • The outer most part of the eye Cornea and the outer chamber aqueous humor are both transparent and allow light to refract through them.
  • The Iris, which a circular and thin comes next to the cornea and aqueous humor. It is reponsible for regulating the amount of light that can reach the retina by altering the pupil size.
  • The change in the size of the pupil is mediated by muscles in the iris.
  • There are two types of muscles, radial muscles and circular muscles.
  • In bright light, the radial muscles of the iris relax while the circular muscles contract. This decreases the pupil size allowing less light to pass into the retina.
  • In dim light,  radial muscles of the iris contract while the circular muscles relax. This increases the pupil size allowing more light to pass into the retina.

Answer:

With the findings of the 2016 Census count on population and dwellings, Statistics Canada gives Canadians a first look at the most recent national statistical snapshot.

The census counts 35,151,728 persons who said they lived in Canada on May 10, 2016, and displays population growth patterns across the country.

The organization will provide the complete spectrum of census data during the following year, as Canadians commemorate 150 years since Confederation, in order to portray a truthful picture of Canadians' lives and communities.

In 1871, the first census following Confederation recorded 3.5 million people in Canada, while the population figure in 2016 was ten times higher. When Canadians celebrated the 100th anniversary of Confederation in 1967, that number had risen to 20.0 million people (1966 Census).

Canadians have been making their way west for many years. The four founding provinces of Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia housed the majority of Canadians in 1871, whereas Western Canada was lightly populated. Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, and British Columbia accounted for over a third of the population in 2016.:
