Parts A, B, C and D of the human eyes are shown in the diagram. Select the option

which gives correct identification along with its functions/characteristics

1. A-retina-contains photoreceptors-rods and cones

2. B-blind spot-has only a few rods and cones

3. C-aqueous chamber-reflects the light which does not pass through the lens

4. D-choroidits anterior part forms ciliary body

A person entering an empty room suddenly finds a snake right in front on opening the

door. Which one of the following is likely to happen in his neurohormonal control system?

3. Hypothalamus activates the parasympathetic division of brain

4. Sympathetic nervous system is activated releasing epinephrine and norepinephrine

from adrenal cortex
