Read the following passage and answer Question Nos. 46 to 50:

The eye-ball is a little camera. Its smallness is part of its perfection. A spheroid camera, there are, not many anatomical organs where exact shape counts for so much as with the eye. Light which will enter the eye will traverse a lens placed in the right position there, will traverse; all this making of the eye which will see in the light is carried out in the dark. It is a preparing in darkness for use in light. The lens required is biconvex and to be shaped truly enough to focus its pencil of light at the particular distance of the sheet of photosensitive cells at the back, the retina. The biconvex lens is made of cells, like those of the skin but modified to be glass-clear. It is delicately slung with accurate centring across the path of light which will in due time, some months later, enter the eye. In front of it a circular screen controls, like the iris-stop of a camera or microscope, the width of the beam and is adjustable, so that in a poor light more is taken for the image. In microscope, or photographic camera, this adjustment is made by the observer working on the instrument. In the eye this adjustment is automatic, worked by the image itself!

The lens and the screen cut the chamber of the eye into a front half and a back half, both filled with clear humour, practically water, kept under a certain pressure maintaining the eye-balls right shape. The rOnt chamber is completed by a layer of skin specialized to be glass-clear and free from 1ood-vessels which if present would with their blood throw shadows within the eye. This living glass-clear sheet is covered with a layer of tear-water constantly renewed. This tear-water has the special chemical power of killing germs which might inflame the eye. This glass-clear bit of skin has only one of the fourfold set of skin-senses; its touch is always 'pain', for it should not be touched. The skin above and below this window grows into movable flaps, dry outside like ordinary skin, but moist inside so as to wipe the window clear every minute or so from any specks of dust, by painting over it fresh tear-water.

The light sensitive screen at the back is the key structure. It registers a continually changing picture. It receives, takes and records a moving picture life long without change of 'plate', through every waking day. It signals its shifting exposures to the brain.

This camera also focuses itself automatically, according to the distance of the picture interesting it. It makes its lens 'stronger' or 'weaker' as required. This camera also turns itself in the direction of the view required. It is moreover contrived as though with forethought of self-preservation. Should danger threaten, in a moment its skin shutters close, protecting its transparent window. And the whole structure, with its prescience and all its efficiency, is produced by and out of specks of granular slime arranging themselves as of their own accord in sheets and layers, an acting seemingly on an agreed plan. That done, and their organ complete, they abide by what they have accomplished. They lapse into relative quietude and change no more. It all sounds an unskilful overstated tale which challenges belief. But to faithful observation so it is.

46. How does light enter the eye?

(A) As a pencil of light

(B) By traversing the lens of the eye

(D) As a biconvex lens

Answer: Option-(B) By traversing the lens of the eye
