The correct option is C Ciliary muscle functions in accommodation
The vertebrate retina is inverted in the sense that the light sensing cells are in the back of the retina so that light has to pass through layers of neurons and capillaries before it reaches the rods and cones.
So, the correct option is 'Ciliary muscle function in accommodation'.
