Eye Structures
conjunctiva covers the innermost layer of the eyelid--> sclera (white area) . It is a thin membrane that contains secretory epithelium. help lubricate the eye for eyelid closure.
Lacrimal apparatus
lacrimal gland,ducts,sac. produce tears to moisten and lubricate the eye
gland is located superior and lateral to the eye and secretes tears. The tears are released onto the sclera of the eye and drain into the inferior, medial part of the eye in order to exit through the lacrimal ducts. ducts run through the superior and inferior canals and drain into the lacrimal sac. Tears then will move into the nasolacrimal duct into the nasal cavity.

Anatomy of the Ear
-
Middle ear -around tympanic membrane the malleus, incus and stapes (ossicles) and the eustachian tube.
-
Inner ear - cochlea ->hearing, the vestibule (for static balance) and the semicircular canals->dynamic balance
-
Hearing
Sound waves
air pressure waves
vestibule tells us what position we have gotten into, and then tells us if that overall position has changed.
-
-
Cochlea
sound wave of high or low pressure->tympanic membrane in response->vibration amplify across ossicles->vibrations against ovale standing wave in ventracles->pressure bends cochlear duct cause hair basilar membrane to vibrate
basilar membrane where the tympanic duct ^ tectorial membrane =cochlear duct. sound travels ->tympanic duct sound waves in the fluid -> basilar membrane moves hair cells attached to it. movement bends cilia of hair cells. the basilar membrane -> tectorial membrane.
Vestibular Sense
sense of direction up, down, side
