Answer to Question 1

B
A diagnosis of hypertension is made if the systolic pressure is equal to or greater than 140 mm Hg and the diastolic pressure is equal to or greater than 90 mm Hg at least twice on two different occasions 2 weeks apart.

Answer to Question 2

B
The cornea bends or refracts the light rays onto the retina. The pupil acts to regulate the entrance of light into the eye. The ciliary body helps to change the shape of the eye for far and near vision. The retina is the inner coat of the eyeball and is found in the posterior portion of it. The retina contains several layers. The layer with rods and cones acts as the receptor for light images.
