The correct Answer is:
To answer the question, we need to identify the fluids that fill the spaces in the human eye. 1. **Identify the spaces in question**: The question asks about two specific spaces in the eye: - The space between the cornea and the lens. - The space between the lens and the retina. 2. **Determine the fluid in the first space (cornea and lens)**: - The space between the cornea and the lens is filled with a fluid called **aqueous humor**. - Aqueous humor is a clear fluid that provides nutrients to the eye and helps maintain intraocular pressure. 3. **Determine the fluid in the second space (lens and retina)**: - The space between the lens and the retina is filled with a fluid called **vitreous humor**. - Vitreous humor is a gel-like substance that helps maintain the shape of the eye and keeps the retina in place. 4. **Final Answer**: - The space between the cornea and lens is filled with **aqueous humor**, while that between the lens and retina is filled with **vitreous humor**.
