visual cue for depth that requires two eyes
part of the retina that contains no photoreceptors

cue for distance that may be available to either eye alone
the cranial nerve that carries sound from the cochlea of the inner ear to the brain
a neuron that responds to light
the nerve that transmits information about odors from olfactory receptors to the brain
transparent structure of the eye that focuses light on the retina
light-sensitive inner surface of the eye that contains the rods, cones, and neurons that process visual stimuli
keenness or sharpness of vision
a binocular cue for perceiving depth based on the difference between the two images of an object that the retina receives as the object moves closer or farther away
a visual illusion in which perception of motion is generated by presenting a series of stationary images in rapid succession
the fluid-filled structure of the inner ear that transmits sound impulses to the auditory nerve
opening in the colored part of the eye
deafness that results from damage to the auditory nerve
