The human _______ loses its power of accommodation at old age.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. eye.

  • Presbyopia is the defect of vision in which the eye-lens loses its power of accommodation due to old age.
  • This defect occurs in old age due to the weakening of the ciliary muscle and the eye-lens becoming inflexible (or rigid).
  • Thus, the eye loses its power of accommodation.
