Receptor cells: These are specialized cells that detect stimuli. For example,the organ of Corti is located on the basilar membrane and contains hair cells,which act as auditory receptor cells.
$(2)$ Aqueous humor: This is a thin,watery fluid present in the space between the cornea and the lens.
Vitreous humor: This is a transparent,jelly-like substance present in the space between the lens and the retina.
