The correct Answer is:
To identify the incorrect statement from the given options, we will analyze each statement one by one: 1. **Statement i**: "Sclera is composed of dense connective tissue." - The sclera is indeed the outer protective layer of the eye and is made up of dense connective tissue. This statement is **correct**. 2. **Statement ii**: "Cornea contains many blood vessels." - The cornea is a transparent part of the eye that does not contain any blood vessels. Instead, it receives nutrients from the tears and the aqueous humor. Therefore, this statement is **incorrect**. 3. **Statement iii**: "Thickness of choroid layer is uniform throughout the eyeball." - The choroid layer is the vascular layer of the eye and its thickness is not uniform; it varies in different regions of the eye. Hence, this statement is also **incorrect**. 4. **Statement iv**: "Choroid layer posteriorly forms ciliary body." - The ciliary body is indeed part of the uveal tract and is associated with the choroid, but it does not mean that the choroid layer itself forms the ciliary body. This statement is **incorrect** as well. Now, summarizing the findings: - Statement i is correct. - Statement ii is incorrect. - Statement iii is incorrect. - Statement iv is incorrect. Thus, the incorrect statements are ii, iii, and iv. **Final Answer**: The incorrect statement is **ii** (Cornea contains many blood vessels).
