Based on the experiment conducted, we can come to the conclusion that the eyelids are translucent structures.
- Opacity and transparency are characteristics of objects that determine the amount of light that is able to pass through them
- An opaque object does not allow any light to pass through
- A transparent object, such as glass, allows almost all light to pass unhindered, while some rays may be reflected or refracted
- A translucent object is one that allows a small number of light rays to pass, but not enough to form a clear shape or picture
- Since our eyelids are very thin and made up of skin, connective tissue and a few capillaries, some of the light is able to pass through, making them translucent
