Answer 1

(a) The extract is from the poem " All But Blind".

(b) Sight is the sensory detail in these lines. It appeals to see something.

• The sensory organs are the ear, the eye, the nose, the skin, and the tongue. These are the most important aspects of human life because they allow us to see and feel our surroundings.
• The sense organs are made up of receptors that transmit signals from sensory neurons to the nervous system.
• An eye is a sensory organ that detects visible images and is used more than any other sense. The light reflects off an object and reaches the eye. The cornea, the transparent outer layer of the eye, bends the light that passes through the pupil hole.
