Use the mirror to observe your eyes. What are the parts of your eyes that you can see? 2. Read about the parts and function of eyes. Parts and Function of our Eyes Our eyes help us to see. It has different parts that work together so we can see things around us. The cornea is like a clear glass that covers the front of the eye. The iris is the colored part of the eye. It lets just the right amount of light to enter the eye. At the center of the iris is the pupil. The pupil is a circular hole where light enters. Next to the pupil is the lens. The lens focuses the image we see onto the retina located at the back of the eye. The retina is like a “screen” where the image of the object seen is focused. The optic nerve connected to the eye sends the message to the brain to tell about the image seen. Chapter 1: Sense Organs

It has different parts that work together so we can hear sounds. The outside of the ear is called the pinna. This is the part that you can see where the girl’s earring is pierced. The pinna collects sound and directs it into the ear canal. The ear canal is like a tube where ear wax is formed. The ear canal directs the sound into the eardrum located at the end. The eardrum is like a thin piece of skin stretched tight like a drum. When sounds reach the eardrum, it shakes or vibrates. There are three small bones connected behind the eardrum. These bones are called hammer, anvil, and stirrup. When the eardrum vibrates, these three bones that are connected one after another also vibrate. The cochlea detects the vibration. The cochlea is the snail-like part which is filled with liquid. When the liquid inside the cochlea vibrates, it sends messages to our brain through the auditory nerve to tell us about the sounds we hear.

Parts and Function of the Nose Our nose helps us to smell things around us. We use it to breathe. The nose is made up of the nostrils, nasal cavity and nerves. The nostrils are the two holes of the nose. Inside the nostrils are hairs that keep dust out of the nose.When you inhale, air enters the nostrils and passes through the nasal passages and into the nasal cavity. The nasal cavity is the space behind your nose, in the middle of your face. Its walls are wet, warm, and covered with mucus, a sticky liquid. Mucus traps dusts, dirt or germs which enter the nostrils and were not filtered by the nose hairs. Inside the nasal cavity are nerves that pick up the scents carried by air. The nerves in the nasal cavity send messages to the brain which interprets what we have smelled.

It has different parts that work together so we can see things around us. The cornea is like a clear glass that covers the front of the eye. The iris is the colored part of the eye. It lets just the right amount of light to enter the eye. At the center of the iris is the pupil. The pupil is a circular hole where light enters. Next to the pupil is the lens. The lens focuses the image we see onto the retina located at the back of the eye. The retina is like a “screen” where the image of the object seen is focused. The optic nerve connected to the eye sends the message to the brain to tell about the image seen. Chapter 1: Sense Organs

Based on what you read, label the parts of the diagram of the ear on your notebook. . Parts and Function of our Ears Our ears help us to hear sounds. It has different parts that work together so we can hear sounds. The outside of the ear is called the pinna. This is the part that you can see where the girl’s earring is pierced. The pinna collects sound and directs it into the ear canal. The ear canal is like a tube where ear wax is formed. The ear canal directs the sound into the eardrum located at the end. The eardrum is like a thin piece of skin stretched tight like a drum. When sounds reach the eardrum, it shakes or vibrates. There are three small bones connected behind the eardrum. These bones are called hammer, anvil, and stirrup. When the eardrum vibrates, these three bones that are connected one after another also vibrate. The cochlea detects the vibration. The cochlea is the snail-like part which is filled with liquid. When the liquid inside the cochlea vibrates, it sends messages to our brain through the auditory nerve to tell us about the sounds we hear.

Parts and Function of the Nose Our nose helps us to smell things around us. We use it to breathe. The nose is made up of the nostrils, nasal cavity and nerves. The nostrils are the two holes of the nose. Inside the nostrils are hairs that keep dust out of the nose.When you inhale, air enters the nostrils and passes through the nasal passages and into the nasal cavity. The nasal cavity is the space behind your nose, in the middle of your face. Its walls are wet, warm, and covered with mucus, a sticky liquid. Mucus traps dusts, dirt or germs which enter the nostrils and were not filtered by the nose hairs. Inside the nasal cavity are nerves that pick up the scents carried by air. The nerves in the nasal cavity send messages to the brain which interprets what we have smelled.
