Solution
Verified by Toppr

Correct answer is (a)

Our eye has convex lens which is composed of a fibrous, jelly-like material, Its curvature can be modified to some extent by the ciliary muscles which thus change its focal length. The ability of the eye lens to adjust its focal length is called accommodation. However, the focal length of the eye lens cannot be decreased below a certain minimum limit.
