Anatomy of the Eye
1. Name five accessory eye structures that contribute to the formation of tears and/or aid in lubrication of the eyeball, and then name the major secretory product of each. Indicate which has antibacterial properties by circling the correct secretory product.
Accessory structures lacrimal glands conjunctiva tarsal or meibomian glands caruncle ciliary glands
Product saline solution; Clysozym0 mucus oily secretion whitish, oily secretion sweat
2. The eyeball is wrapped in adipose tissue within the orbit. What is the function of the adipose tissue?
To package, protect, and cushion the eyeball in the bony orbit.
