The human eye has three layers of eye tissue: the fibrous layer, the vascular layer, and the retina. Each of these layers performs a different function in helping a human see or in eye, as well as forms a place for muscles to attach to. The vascular layer protects portions of the eye. The fibrous layer of eye tissue allows light to enter the ourishes the eye and controls how much light comes into it. The retina is the section of the eye that allows a person to see. The fibrous layer has two distinct parts.

alluvial Alluvial refers to the stuff left behind by running water. Think of a city in the aftermath of a floodââstreets littered with things that had once been floatingââtree branches, parts of buildings, and lots of lots of sand and silt. Alluvial comes from the Latin word for washed, but the stuff water leaves behind doesn't often feel clean. In fact, the word is so closely associated with leftover debris that its meaning goes beyond flooding. If you have a party when your parents are out of town, youâd better get up early and clean up all the alluvial evidence.
