Brief Explanations
- Question 1:
- The choroid is part of the vascular tunic (uvea) of the eye and contains melanin which helps absorb light to prevent scattering within the eye. The cornea is the clear front - part of the eye (fibrous tunic), the lens is for focusing light, the ciliary body is involved in accommodation and aqueous humor production (part of vascular tunic but not the main melanin - containing part of the vascular tunic), and the sclera is the white part (fibrous tunic).
- Question 2:
- The infundibulum is the anatomical stalk of the pituitary gland. The pars tuberalis is part of the adenohypophysis (anterior pituitary). The tuber cinereum is part of the hypothalamus. The adenohypophysis is the anterior pituitary gland, and the neurohypophysis is the posterior pituitary gland.
- Question 3:
- Gustatory (taste) cells are not located on the inner surface of the cheeks. They are found on the posterior wall of the pharynx (contribute to taste during swallowing), on fungiform papillae (anterior tongue, have taste buds), and on the apical surface of vallate papillae (tongue, large taste - bud - containing papillae).
