Answer: The correct answer to the question is option B

Closest to the Nose; Closest to the temples.

Sides of the retina are referred to as either as nasal or temporal.

Masai is closest to the NOSE while temporal is closest to the TEMPLES.

Explanation: The retina is the innermost layer of the eye,it is made of nerve fibers that transmit impulses to the visual centre in the brain via the optic nerve and the macula lutea which contains light sensitive cells.

The retina is divided into the Nasal retina and the temporal retina.

The nasal retina is the part of the retina that is nearest to the nose.

It is from this nasal side of the retina that the nerve fibers that are going to the opposite side of the cerebrum are projected after they desiccate in the optic chiasma.( X-shaped structure they is formed as a result of crossing if optic nerves in the brain)(crossing over)

Just like the nasal retina,the temporal retina is the part of the retina that is nearest to the temples and it is from this side of the retina that nerve fibres that are going to the same side if the cerebrum are projected after they pass through the optic chiasma. X-shaped structure they is formed as a result of crossing if optic nerves in the brain)(crossing over)
