The suspensory ligament is what during distance vision?

During distant vision, the ciliary muscle is relaxed, the suspensory ligament is taut, the convexity of the lens is increased, and light refraction is decreased. During close vision, the ciliary muscle is contracted, the suspensory ligament is relaxed, lens convexity is increased, and light refraction is increased.


When does lens convexity increase?

when the degree of convergence of a convex lens placed in air increases, we say its convexity has increased. as the power of a lens is the measure of degree of its convergence or divergence, we can increase the convexity of a lens increasing its powerthis is further achieved by decreasing its focal length.as focal length is inversly proportional to the refractive index of lens we have to decrease in order to increase its convexity.


How does light go through a lens?

Light goes in the lens, refraction occurs, and the light exits the lens.


By what process does a lens focus light?

Refraction phenomenon


What happens to light when it strikes a lens?

light bends when it hits the lens....this is called refraction


Do animals use refraction?

In general, the process refraction only occurs in the eyes (as far as I know). So I assume you are asking how animals use refraction in their eyes, and by "refraction" you mean the refraction of light. In general, when light enters the eyes, it first enters the cornea of the eyes, which is then refracted into the pupil through the aqueous humor. The thickness and convexity of the lens control how the light is refracted into the eye. The light is focused on the retina which has rods and cone (photoreceptors/light sensors) which sends nerve impulses to the brain. Therefore, the animal is able to see. The parts of the eyes that does the refraction are the cornea, aqueous humor, lens, and the vitreous humor. You might want to surf the web for more details about this


A converging lens changes the direction of light through the process of?

A converging lens changes the direction of light through the process of refraction. A lens is a device that uses refraction to bend light to form an image.
