The correct option is
A
Sclerotic
A. Sclera is the external layer of eye which maintains the shape of eye and also protects it.
B. Cornea is the anterior portion of eye which absorbs oxygen from the air.
C. Choroid is the middle layer of eye which contains many blood vessels and appears bluish in colour.
D. Retina is present in the inner layer of eye. The image is perceived by brain and formed on the retina.
Eye muscles or the extraocular muscles are attached to the sclera i.e. the external layer of eye.
