Dilation of the pupil
A rounding of the lens
Constriction of the pupil
Increase in intraocular pressure
A flattening of the lens

Example Question #2 : Structure And Function Of Organs And Organ Systems
The intrinsic rate of the pacemaker cells in the AV node is:
equal to the rate in the SA node
slower than the rate in the SA node
varies (sometimes faster, sometimes slower than the rate in the SA node)
the AV node does not contain pacemaker cells
faster than the rate in the SA node
slower than the rate in the SA node
The intrinsic rate of depolarization is slower among the pacemaker cells in the AV node compared to the rate in the SA node.
