What is in the black of the human eye?
The black of the human eye is a hole called the pupil. The color part is really a muscle which contracts and dilates depending on how much light there is in the environment. When there is a lot of light, the iris (colored muscle) contracts, making the "hole" smaller. When there is limited light in an environment, the iris relaxes, which in turn causes the pupil to increase size. So the black is just a whole in the muscle where light enters the eye to be focused by the lens and computed by the brain.
