Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

The epithelial cells of the ciliary processes of the ciliary body produce aqueous humor. It is secreted into the posterior chamber then flows into the anterior chamber through the pupil. After filtering through connective tissues at the base of the iris it enters the scleral venous sinus into veins in the sclera. If pigment pieces block the scleral venous sinus canal the fluid that is continuously produced cannot drain at the same rate and intraocular pressure will increase causing glaucoma.
