3.8 analyse information from secondary sources to describe changes in the shape of the eye’s lens when focusing on near and far objects
analyse information from secondary sources to describe changes in the shape of the eye’s lens when focusing on near and far objects
- Try to gather information from a range of resources, including popular scientific journals, digital technologies and the Internet.
- Process the information by preparing a diagram to show accommodation by the eye at a short distance and one at long distance. Write a brief description of what occurs at each distance to accompany the diagram. A useful starting point is the web site Accommodation
(HyperPhysics, Georgia State University). Then go to Refraction
(York University, Canada)
- Analyse by looking for the relationship between the shape of the eye and the distance to the object being focussed.
