The eardrum is also known as what? Tympanic membrane
The receptor organ for hearing is: organ of corti
This structure is thought to enhance vision in dim light in animals (except pigs) tapetum lucidum
This ring shaped structure immediately behind the iris contains muscles that adjust the shape of the lens ciliary body
This bone is attached to the tympanic membrane: Malleus
This sense provides knowledge of body position and movement Proprioception
Articulates with the incus and is attached to the oval window stapes
Fluid with watery consistency produced in the eyes posterior chamber aqueous humor
consists of structures that produce and drain tears from the surface of the eye Lacrimal apparatus
Fluid with a gelatin like consistency behind the lens and ciliary body vitreous humor
Compared with human this sense is highly developed in many animals Olfactory
Pain receptors nociceptors
connects the pharynx with the middle ear and equalizes pressure on 2 sides of the tympanic membrane Eustachian tube

In animals with white hair, the medulla becomes filled with what? air
This type of cartilage is found in the pinna and epiglottis of animals elastic cartilage
This substance is responsible for the waterproof quality of skin keratin

What are deciduous teeth? Baby teeth or milk teeth
How many upper incisors do ruminants have? 0
How does stimulation of the parasympathetic nervous system affect salivary glands? It causes salivation
