Name the organ of the human body, which

under the appropriate conditions, expands to six times its

normal size, and define the conditions."

nograd,

'Fear' as you've described while under the influence of any hallucinatory drug; ie: LSD,usually is considered "Starbursting." The principle cause of starbursting is due to some process other than the light passing the edge of the abation field. Dim light pupil is only 5.5mm without drops or 8mm with. This is widely known as the "Glassy Eye" effect.

Next "trip" you take,see(no pun intended)for yourself.

Dim light is correct.

The pupil expands when you are attracted to the subject in your field of vision................I wonder if the same response is connected to that.

Anyhoo,

I was going to say "the bladder".Condition: while reading the posts at Allnurses.

When did the pupil become an organ? AFAIK, it doesn't even have mass--it's an opening in the iris.

[Peeps Mcarthur]

Aqueous humor has mass, but the definition of an organ is "a group or collection of similar cells that perform a specific function"

The Pupil is technicaly the space created by the relative tension in the muscles of the Iris.

I was trying to think of all the tissue with transitional epithelium.

They were thinking about something else "transitional"
