Question:

Which of the following is correct for lens focussing while seeing distant object ?

Updated On: Jun 20, 2022

Relaxed ciliary muscles and taut suspensory ligament
Taut suspensory ligament and rounded lens
Contracted ciliary muscles and relaxed suspensory ligaments
Contracted ciliary muscles and rounded lens

Verified By Collegedunia

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Human eyes have remarkable power of accommodation by changing the convexity of the lens. Due to action of the muscles of ciliary body and suspensory ligament the focal length of the lens can be changed. Then the objects can be focused in different intensity of light from varying distances. For accommodation of distant objects, ciliary muscles are relaxed and suspensory ligaments are tightly stretched.

Neural Control and Coordination

Neural System:

Neurons are the most specialised cells in the nervous system of all animals, and they are responsible for detecting, accepting, and conveying numerous types of motives. The neurological system of low-spinal animals like Hydra is incredibly simple, consisting of a network of neurons. When the brain of an insect comprises a vast number of ganglia and neural tissues, it is optimally structured.

Coordination System:

Coordination is the process by which two or more organs work together to accomplish each other's duties. Increased muscle activity increases the supply of oxygen and the demand for energy while we exercise. When we cease exercising, our nerves, heart, lungs, and kidneys all return to normal. As a result, all of the organs' functions are properly integrated in order to conduct the exercise and supply the appropriate conditions while exercising. Similarly, in the human body, the neurological and endocrine systems work together to coordinate all of the organ activities.
