To function efficiently need bright light?
To function efficiently the eye needs bright light. For maximum efficiency the eye needs light to be at a wavelength of 0.555um. The eye can perform efficiently in the dark at a wavelength of 0.510um, but there is a weakness in color.
What part of eye makes the pupil smaller in bright light and larger in dim light?
Iris
Which part of the eye becomes narrower in bright light?
The pupil narrows in bright light to restrict the amount of light coming in. In low light conditions it will enlarge to allow more light in for greater vision.
What is The difference between pupil and iris?
The iris is the coloured part of the eye. It's typically brown or blue, but other colours like green or grey are possible. The pupil looks like a black dot in the centre of the iris. It can dilate (get wider) and contract (get smaller). The size of the pupil changes depending on how bright the light is. If you are in a very bright room, or in bright sunlight, your pupils will be very small. This is because not much light needs to be let in to the eye for it to be able to see well. In a dimly-lit room your pupils will be bigger, to let as much light into the eye as possible.
What controls the light going into eye?
The pupil controls the amount of light that enters the eye.

What part of your eye needs light to function efficiently?
The part of the eye that reacts to light is the retina.

The part of the eye which decreases in size when a bright light is shone into the eye?
The pupil decreases in size to lessen the amount of light allowed in, so as to prevent damage.
In a bright light the pupil in your eye will?
When exposed to a bright light, the pupil of the human eye will contract. This action allows less light to come in contact with the lens.
Why do eyes need bright and dim light?
Eyes do not need bright and dim light - although the iris (colored part of the eye) and pupil (black center of the eye) function differently under these circumstances. In bright light, the muscles in the iris contract to make the pupil smaller. In dim light, the iris makes the pupil enlarge to allow as much of the scarce light as possible.
Which diagram do you think shows an eye in bright light?
n
Why do people instintively close their eyes in bright light?
To block the light out of their eyes, until they get accustomed to it. But, it isn't instinct to close your eyes in bright light. Muscles around the eye pull it closed to protect the inner areas of the eye.
What is the Response of eye to bright light?
The iris controls the amount of light entering the eyes through pupil. When the surrounding is extremely bright, the iris contracts the size of pupil. This decreases the amount of light entering the eye. This is why when we are suddenly exposed to bright light, the eyes blink and in meanwhile, the iris contracts.

What part of the eye functions to bend light rays?
The Lens is the part of the eye that bends light rays .
