What is a billionth of a meter?
This is how large a nanometer is in comparison to a meter.
|
What is a light wave that we can see?
This is the definition of color.
|
What is the lens?
This can also be referred to as the "projector" of the inner eye.
|
What is color blindness?
Amy was shopping with her friend and commented on a shirt. She said it was a beautiful orange color. Her friend corrected her and said that the shirt was actually red. This is the name of the condition Amy has.
|
What is Panera?
This is Miss Williamson's favorite place to eat
|
What is frequency?
This is the amount of waves that can fit into a single unit of space.
|
What is the electromagnetic spectrum?
This is what includes waves of all sizes, including the visible light spectrum.
|
What are rods?
These are receptor cells that allow people to distinguish between light and dark.
|
What is glaucoma?
This is a disorder that results from an inflamed optic nerve.
|
What are X rays?
Which has a higher frequency? Green light or X rays?
|
What is the angle of incidence = the angle of reflection?
This is a characteristic of light that states that the incoming angle of light is equal and opposite to the angle as it bounces off of a surface.
|
What is 400 to 700 nanometers?
This is the size range of light waves we can see in nanometers.
|
What are cilliary muscles and suspensory ligaments?
These TWO portions of the inner eye work together to keep the lens in place and change the shape of the lens to focus.
|
What is an astigmatism?
This is the disorder that Johnny has considering when he looks at things it's almost like he has "double vision".
|
What are the circulatory and respiratory systems?
These TWO body systems work together to provide the body with a steady supply of oxygen.
|
What is absorption?
This refers to the light waves that you do NOT see when you look at an object.
|
What is red?
Of the visible spectrum, this color has the lowest energy.
|
What is fat?
This is found around the eye as another method of protection, but is not exactly part of the eye. It can be found all over the body.
|
What is there are no rods or cones?
This is the reason the blind spot is blind.
|
What is what Jordan can see from 20 feet away, a "normal sighted" person can see from 50 feet away.
Jordan was taking a vision test at school in science class. His teacher told him that he had 20/50 vision. This is what it means to have 20/50 vision (be specific).
|
What is refraction?
This is what distorts light because it is traveling through a denser medium.
|
What is black?
If we see this, it means that all light waves have been absorbed.
|
What are blood vessels?
This is what you irritate when you rub your eyes and they get red.
|
What is the cones being used become tired, and when you look away the unused cones overcompensate for the tired cones.
This is the reason why after staring at a green, yellow, and black flag, you can see an "after image" of a red, white and blue flag (Be specific)
|
What is YES! There is a light in the tank!
When Miss Williamson left the school yesterday, she turned off the lights, closed all the shades to her room, and blocked the window in the door. There was NO external lighting that could enter the classroom. If you stowed away in the classroom after it was locked up, would you be able to see Miss Williamson's fish?
