Question

Statement 2: Ciliary muscles regulate the size of the pupil.

• A. Statement 1 is true and statement 2 is false
• B. Statement 1 is false and statement 2 is true
• C. Both the statements are true
• D. Both the statements are false

Answer 1

The correct option is D

Both the statements are false

Ruptured eardrum (tympanic membrane perforation) can cause hearing loss. Loud blasts of noise, sudden changes in pressure, poking your eardrum with an object and infection can cause your eardrum to rupture and affect your hearing. Light enters the eye through the pupil, and the iris regulates the amount of light by controlling the size of the pupil.
