Women often face more challenging odds in the publishing industry than their male counterparts, and, historically, female authors confronted even more daunting obstacles in their efforts to build careers as writers.
The nerve layer lining the back of the eye. The retina senses light and creates electrical impulses that are sent through the optic nerve to the brain. The white outer coat of the eye, surrounding the iris. The, clear, gelatinous substance filling the central cavity of the eye. How the Eye Works. The five senses include sight, sound, taste, hearing and touch. Sight, like the other senses is closely related to other parts of our anatomy. The eye is connected to the brain and dependent upon the brain to interpret what we see. How we see depends upon the transfer of light. Light passes through the front of the eye (cornea) to the lens.
Most of the eye is filled with a clear gel called the vitreous. Light projects through the pupil and the lens to the back of the eye. The inside lining of the eye is covered by special light-sensing cells that are collectively called the retina.The retina converts light into electrical impulses. Behind the eye, the optic nerve carries these impulses to the brain.The macula is a small extra-sensitive area within the retina that gives central vision. It is located in the center of the retina and contains the fovea, a small depression or pit at the center of the macula that gives the clearest vision.ehind the eye, the optic nerve carries these impulses to the brain.
