The cornea is responsible for taking all light rays in and bending and molding them so that we see. the optic nerve sends a signal to the brain sort of a fax system. So there really isnt just one part of the eye that aides in sight.

Parts through which light passes as it enters the eye?
As light enters the eye, it passes through the cornea and the lens and is eventually focused onto the retina.
What is the path the light takes as it enters your eye?
When looking at an object (assuming there is light in the area) your cone shaped retina cells (which are responsible for percieving color) percieve the color of the object. The lens in your eye (a part of the optical anatomy located under the iris) flexes so that the object can become in focus. It has the curved shape of a magnifying glass but can flex at will. However, the shaping of the lens makes the object appear upside down. Your brain automatically flips it right side up. The combination of the colors and focus results in your ability to see the object. The light passes through your eye straight on. It simply allows your cone cells to percieve color. If light is not present, your cone shaped retina cells (which are responsible for percieving objects without color) come in effect. Hope this helped
What is the function of the lens?
The lens in our eye is 10x and it's a concave lens. When the light goes through it, the light bends.
What do you call the glass thing that you look at through a microscope?
If you start at the tip of the scope the first thing that you look into is the eyepiece or Ocular. Through the ocular you now are looking down the Tube. Some tubes have prisms and/or mirrors to move the light around. The objective that you screw into the bottom of the tube passes light also.

when light enters the eye it passes through the cornea then pupil then the lens where it is bent and focused on the retina

How do you test a electrical circuit?
use a tester. its like a screwdriver with a little light on top that should light up if a current passes through it. test at various points to ensure current reaches all parts of the circuit

A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes through Earths?
A partial lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon partly passes through the Earth's umbra. A total lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon fully passes through the Earth's umbra. When the Moon only passes through the penumbra, there is only a subtle darkening of its surface. The umbra and the penumbra are parts of the Earth's shadow.
