In this Chapter, the eyes, ears, nose, tongue and skin
are important parts of our body to be discussed. An organ is
a part which does specific work and does different things.

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.

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 girls 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

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.

bumps of the tongue, the taste buds, and nerve
endings.The nerves send messages to the brain which

The skin is the outer covering of our body. It protects

the body from losing too much water, injuries, and infection.
It helps maintain body temperature and help us sense our
The skin consists of two layers. The epidermis is the

outer layer of the skin on the surface on which dead skin
cells are found. This is the part that we can see and touch.
The dermis is the inner layer of the skin which contains blood
vessels, nerves, sweat glands, and oil glands.
The sweat glands open the surface of the skin through

the pore. The oil glands keep the hair and skin soft and moist.
63
Touch, pain, pressure and temperature are sensed by the

nerve endings in the skin. The nerves send messages to the
brain which interprets the message and we feel the objects.
