Question

Answer the following question.

What is the functional difference between eyes of cockroach and human being?

Short Note

Solution

  1. Cockroaches have compound eyes whereas humans have simple eyes.
  2. Eyes of cockroach possess several ommatidia that collectively form an image and help them to detect even the slightest movement of its predator. They provide a mosaic or hazy vision.
  3. Human eyes contain a single lens and a clear image is formed on the retina. Humans have binocular vision which provides an improved perception of depth and gives a three-dimensional image of their surroundings.
