Answer:

  • <u>Cranial Nerves:</u>

The cranial nerves are the set of 12 pairs of nerves which are originated from the brain. As they are responsible for some of the essential functions , such as vision, smell, and balance of the human body structure.

<u>The 12 pairs of the cranial nerves are as as under:</u>

  1. The olfactory nerve
  2. The optic nerve
  3. The oculomotor nerve
  4. The trochlear nerve
  5. The trigeminal nerve
  6. The abducens nerve
  7. The facial nerve
  8. The vestibulocochlear nerve
  9. The glossopharyngeal nerve
  10. The vagus nerve
  11. The spinal accessory
  12. The hypoglossal nerve,
  • It is very hard for the students to remember all the names of the cranial nerves as we can just recall them by memorizing the device-<em>Old Opie Occasionally Tries Trigonometry And Feels Very Gloomy, Vague And Hypoactive.</em>

Explanation:

  • <u>Optic chasma:</u>

The optic chasma originates as one of the cranial nerves, as it serves for the function of vision sense in human body. The nerves are responsible for carrying the set of information and data from the retina of the eye to the brain. As the communication between the two regions or part of the body, as they hold the capacity to carry the charges or information from the retina of the eye towards the brain.

Second-order neurons of ascending pathways that contribute to sensory perception terminate in the ________. Second-order neurons
madam [21]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-Thalamus

Explanation:

The somatosensory pathway is the pathway which sends the receptor generated sensory impulses mostly the temperature and touch to the central nervous system.

The pathway is composed of three types of neurons called primary order neuron, second-order neuron and tertiary order neuron.

The second-order neuron receives the signals from the first-order neurons and carries the signals to the relay part of the brain called thalamus. The thalamus is present in the forebrain region of the brain where it receives, analyses and sends the signals to the different region of the cerebral cortex.

Thus, the thalamus is the correct answer.

Explain how myopia and hyperopia are related to the lens focusing on the retina.
liq [111]

Answer:

In myopia the image is focused ahead of the retina. While in Hyperopia the image is focused beyond or behind the retina.

Explanation:

I'll start by defining the two key terms, Myopia and Hyperopia. Myopia is otherwise called short-sightedness. It is a condition where one cannot see the images of objects located far away from the eyes and tend to see images within a short distance from the eyes. Hyperopia on the otherhand is otherwise known as long-sightedness. It is an eye defect which manifests by one not seeing objects close to the eyes instead he or she see only objects far from the eyes. These two eye defects are a malfunction of the accomodation feature of the eye.

Normally when an object is viewed all the parts of the eye (the organ for vision) function to focus the image of that object on the retina but especially on a part of it called the *light spot*. This then translates the image to the brain using the optical nerve. The brain then interpretes what is being viewed

However in Myopia, images are focused ahead of the retina . This is as a result of the eyeball being too long in relation to the focusing power of the cornea and eye lens.

In Hyperopia on the other hand, images are focused behind the retina. This is by the diameter of the eye being too short or the cornea being too flat.

In conclusion, from the above stated points,it is glaring that Myopia and Hyperopia affect the lens's ability to focus images on the retina.
