Wavelength is __________________ and determines __________ 14. Intensity is _______________determined by a wavelength’s __________________. 15. On page 126, Figure 4.10 shows the eye, and labels the important structures. In the space below, reproduce that drawing. Label each part of the eye, but add the function of each part following your label. 16. Explain how accommodation is involved in focusing incoming rays. 17. Messages in the optic nerve are sent through _______________fibers. 18. Why can you not see colors in dim light? Be sure to include to mention the name of the structure that enables black and white vision. 19. Explain how feature detector cells work. 20. Explain Parallel Processing. 21. Explain where color really “resides.” 22. Explain the Young-Hemholtz Trichromatic Theory. 23. Explain the Opponent-Process theory of vision. 31.
