Question 3
Which of the following is true of the outer layer of the eye?
a. The outer layer of the eye is very sensitive to touch.
b. The outer layer of the eye is darkly pigmented to prevent
light from reflecting internally.

reversed from its actual appearance in the outside world.
c. Light rays are refracted through the transparent media of
the eye before striking the pupil.
d. Light impulses are conducted through the optic nerve to
the temporal lobes of the brain.
