Question 70

A group of ophthalmic researchers investigated the pupillary light reflex in humans. They measured how pupil diameter changes as the light intensity directed at the eye increases.

Table 1 shows their measurements for three healthy adult participants across four different light intensities, along with the calculated mean.

Table 1
