The eye reacts to different light sources by dilating or constricting the pupil to control the amount of light entering the eye. In bright light, the pupil constricts to allow less light in, while in dim light, the pupil dilates to allow more light in for improved vision. This process helps the eye adjust to various light conditions to optimize vision.

It is not visible by the naked eye.


What are the main functions of the eye?

The eye is the biological receptor for light (electromagnetic energy). The eyes of animals have one or more lenses that focus the light on a retina of some kind. The retina has biological structures that react to the light, and different animals have receptors that chemically react to different colors of light and also different wavelengths of light. The chemical changes caused by the light are coupled to the brain as neurological signals, and the visual cortex or visual area of the brain interprets the signals.


What planet from the solar system can produce its own light?

It depends on what you mean by "light". if you mean light that the human eye can visibly see without any other sources of light, then the answer to your question is none of the planets. If you mean light that the human eye cannot visibly see without any other sources of light, then the anwser to your question is all of the planets.


As the frequency of light changes the human eye recognize a change in?

As the frequency of light changes, the human eye recognizes a change in color. Different frequencies correspond to different colors in the visible spectrum, ranging from shorter wavelengths (blues and violets) to longer wavelengths (reds and oranges). This is how we perceive the changing colors of the rainbow or when light sources appear to be different colors.


What is anatnomy of the eye?

On the surface of the eye is the lens, and just beneath are the pupil and iris, which help filter the amount of light entering the eyes. Within the eye are nerve endings, rods and cones, that react to the light entering the eye, and send signals to the brain to interpret the signals.


Is a cats eye a source of light?

No, a cat's eye is not a source of light unlike some animals, for example, fireflies. A cat's eye only reflects back some of the incoming light. This reflective layer is behind the nerve cells that detect light and allows them a second chance to react to light. As you may have noticed, a lot of light comes back out.


How can an eye react quickly to movement?

Our eye reacts quickly to movement by our eyes responding to movements and for our eyes being able to spot the different things going on and then reacts and sends signals to the brain which then tells you how to react to it.


Why do things look a different colour in different light?

The color of an object depends on the wavelengths of light that it reflects. Different types of light sources emit different wavelengths, which can make an object appear to be a different color under different lighting conditions. Additionally, the human eye and brain adjust to different lighting conditions, which can also affect how we perceive color.

How does the iris control the the amount of light reaching the pupils?

The iris dilates in dimmer light to allow more light into the eye through the pupil then lens, through the inner eye onto the retina, and finally to the optical nerve. The iris will contract when lots of light is exposed to the eye to allow less light into the eye, so we are not blinded. Sources: My science teacher in 5th grade. :)
