Answer:
<u>b. produce mucus to prevent the eyes from drying out.</u>
Explanation:
Conjunctiva is a<u> mucous membrane which covers the underside of the eyelids, the sclera (the white of the eye) upto the limbus</u> (the junction of cornea/ transparent portion of the eye and sclera).
It contains <u>various mucin glands which produce mucous</u> responsible for moistening the conjunctiva. The various mucin glands present in conjunctiva are
- <u>Goblet cells</u>
- <u>Glands of Manz</u>
- <u>Crypts of Henle</u>

<u>QUESTION:</u>
<u>a. produce tears to lubricate the eyes.</u>
This is the inappropriate answer choice as tears are mostly produced by the lacrimal glands. Only a very small proportion are produced by the conjunctiva.
<u>b. produce mucus to prevent the eyes from drying out.</u>
This is the<u> correct answer and appropriate choice</u> as mucous from conjunctival glands helps in preventing dryness of eyes.
<u>c. lubricate the eyelids so they do not stick together.</u>
This is the inappropriate answer choice.
<u>d. produce sweat to cool the eyelids.</u>
This is the incorrect answer choice as it is not the function of conjunctiva.

Q1)Trees increase the ability of the soil to retain stormwater by absorbing water from the ground. The roots also help to break up compacted soil as they expand, allowing water to flow more easily downward into the groundwater level.
Q2) The Sun's energy drives the water cycle. The sun warms the ocean's surface and other bodies of surface water, allowing liquid water to drain and ice to sublime (transform from a solid to a gas). These solar-powered processes release water vapor into to the atmosphere.
