The part of the eye that connects the iris to the choroid coat is the

Cornea Iris Ciliary body Lens

Correct Answer:

Ciliary body

Explanation:

The ciliary body. It forms a ring between the iris in front and the choroid behind, effectively linking those two structures. The ciliary body is part of the uveal tract and sits at the boundary between the anterior and posterior eye segments. It contains the ciliary muscle, which adjusts the lens for focusing, and the ciliary processes that produce aqueous humor. The other options are not connective structures between iris and choroid: the cornea is the clear front window, the iris is the colored part in front of the lens, and the lens sits behind the pupil, with the choroid located further back.
