7 The Sensory Systems Lesson 7.1: The Eye Lesson 7.2: The Ear Lesson 7.3: Smell and Taste Chapter 7: The Sensory Systems Lesson 7.1 The Eye External Structures of the Eye • Tarsal glands – located in the eyelids – produce an oily secretion • Ciliary glands - modified sweat glands - located between the eyelashes • Conjunctiva - membrane that covers the exposed eyeball and lines the eyelid - secretes a lubricating mucus © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Permission granted to reproduce for educational use only. External Structures of the Eye • Lacrimal glands - above the lateral end of each eye release tears through excretory ducts tears contain lysozyme, an enzyme that attacks bacteria tears drain into the lacrimal canaliculi located in the medial corner of each eye, then to the nasolacrimal duct, then to the nasal cavity © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc.

Internal Structures of the Eye • eyeball is a hollow chamber filled with aqueous and vitreous humor- fluids that help the eyeball maintain shape • 3 tissue layers form the wall of the eyeball – sclera – choroid – retina © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Permission granted to reproduce for educational use only. 3 Tissue Layers of the Eyeball • Sclera - outer layer of the eye - consists of the white part of the eye and the cornea - cornea contains no blood supply © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Permission granted to reproduce for educational use only. 3 Tissue Layers of the Eyeball • Choroid - middle layer of the eye - contains rich supply of blood vessels - includes the iris o colored part of eye o contains 2 sets of muscles which control the amount of light admitted to the eye sphincter pupillae – contracts in the presence of bright light or when the eye focuses on an object up close – pupil grows smaller Dilator pupillae – contracts in the presence of dim light –or when the eye focuses on a distant object – pupil grows larger - includes the pupil – opening through which light passes into the - the interior of the eye © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Permission granted to reproduce for educational use only. 3 Tissue Layers of the Eyeball • Retina - innermost layer of the eye - contains 2 types of light-sensitive sensory neurons o rods – activated in dim light o cones – sensitive to bright light and provide color vision - bipolar neurons provide connections between the retina and rods and cones © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc.

Blind Spot • area on the retina where the optic nerve joins the eye – optic disc • no rods and cones on the optic disc • we do not perceive this blind spot because the brain fills in this visual info from the other eye © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Permission granted to reproduce for educational use only. Lens • located behind the iris • transparent, flexible structure • held in place by suspensory ligaments which attach to the ciliary body - ciliary body contracts to view objects within 20 ft which changes the shape of the lens – after the age of 40, the ability of the ciliary body to contract diminishes © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Permission granted to reproduce for educational use only. Vision • optic nerve - receive impulses from the rods and cones and transmits the impulses to the brain • optic chiasm - location in the brain where the optic nerves cross • optic tracts - nerve fibers exiting the optic chiasm - carry visual stimuli to the occipital lobe © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Permission granted to reproduce for educational use only. Vision Disorders © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Permission granted to reproduce for educational use only. Vision Disorders • vision disorders © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Permission granted to reproduce for educational use only. Eye Diseases • Conjunctivitis – also known as pink eye – contagious inflammation of the conjunctiva • Cataracts - Clouding of the transparent lens of the eye causing blurred vision, poor night vision, and halos around light • Glaucoma - increased pressure within the eyeball • macular degeneration - progressive loss of central vision - peripheral vision remains unaffected © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Permission granted to reproduce for educational use only. Eye Diseases • diabetic retinopathy - caused by long-term diabetes - damage to the retina caused by swelling and leaking of the vessels that supply blood to the retina - leading cause of blindness in American adults • vitreous floaters - tiny chunks of the gel-like vitreous humor break off and float in the aqueous humor - irregular shaped specks drift within your field of vision © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Permission granted to reproduce for educational use only. Review and Assessment Fill in the blanks with: choroid, cornea, cones, or vitreous. 1. The pupil is part of the _______________ tissue layer. 2. The two humors are aqueous and _______________. 3. The retina contains the rods and _______________. 4. The clear part of the sclera is the _______________. © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Permission granted to reproduce for educational use only. Chapter 7: The Sensory Systems Lesson 7.2 The Ear Anatomy of the Ear • external ear – auricle Irregularly-shaped outer portion of ear – auditory canal short, tube-like structure connected to the auricle walls are lined with skin that contain ceruminous glands that produce cerumen (earwax) – tympanic membrane eardrum soundwaves cause the eardrum to vibrate Separates the outer ear from the middle ear © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Permission granted to reproduce for educational use only. Anatomy of the Ear • middle ear (tympanic cavity) – ossicles – smallest bones in the body • hammer, anvil, stirrup • transmit and amplify sound waves • tympanic membrane attaches to the hammer which attaches to the anvil which attaches to the stirrup which attaches to the oval membrane – Eustachian tube • connects the middle ear to the pharynx • equalizes pressure on either side of the tympanic membrane © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Permission granted to reproduce for educational use only. Anatomy of the Ear © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Permission granted to reproduce for educational use only. Anatomy of the Ear • internal ear - semicircular canals - bony labyrinth winding tunnels filled with clear fluid called perilymph - membranous labyrinth inside the bony labyrinth filled with thicker fluid called endolymph – cochlea • cochlear nerve carries information about hearing – vestibule • vestibular nerve carries information about balance - vestibular and cochlear nerves join to form the vestibulocochlear nerve © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Permission granted to reproduce for educational use only. Inner Ear © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Permission granted to reproduce for educational use only. Hearing • Sound waves enter the ear, – transmitted through the auditory canal - cause the tympanic membrane to vibrate • the hammer, anvil, and stirrup transmit and amplify the vibrations to the membrane of the oval window causing the fluid in the inner ear (endolymph) to be set into motion • cochlear duct - the membranous labyrinth inside the cochlea • inside the cochlear duct is the organ of Corti which contains hair cells which are specialized hearing receptors • these hair cells are stimulated by the motion of the endolymph © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Permission granted to reproduce for educational use only. Hearing • stimulation of cilia cells stimulates the cochlear branch of the vestibulocochlear nerve • the cochlear nerve sends the impulse to the auditory region of the brain in the temporal lobe © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Permission granted to reproduce for educational use only. Balance/Equilibrium • hair cells in the semicircular canals are stimulated by movement of endolymph in the canals • vestibular nerve is stimulated and information on body orientation is sent to the cerebellum © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Permission granted to reproduce for educational use only. Disorders and Infections of the Ear • Deafness • Tinnitus - ringing in the ears - hair cells in the organ of Corti are damaged - often caused by repeated exposure to loud noise • external otitis (swimmer’s ear) - bacterial or fungal infection of the auditory canal caused by immersion in contaminated water © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Permission granted to reproduce for educational use only. Disorders and Infections of the Ear • otitis media (middle ear infection) - caused by bacteria or virus - common in infants and toddlers because their Eustachian tubes are not fully developed - treated with antibiotics or in chronic cases, tubes are inserted in the tympanic membrane to relieve pressure • labyrinthitis (inner ear infection) - often affects the semicircular canals - can cause vertigo (dizzines), nausea, and vomiting © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Permission granted to reproduce for educational use only. Review and Assessment True or False? 1. External otitis is swimmer’s ear. 2. The ossicles are in the external ear. 3. Hair cells are responsible for equilibrium. 4. The cochlea is part of the inner ear. 5. Labyrinthitis is an inner ear infection. © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc.
