Humans have only 2 eyes, while scallops have more than 200 eyes, can they really see the four-dimensional world?
In our cognition, ordinary creatures generally have only two eyes, but there are many strange creatures in the ocean, and their eyes are much more numerous than ordinary creatures, such as scallops. In our eyes scallop is a very delicious food, at the same time it is also a low-level creature in the ocean, widely distributed in the oceans around the world, is such a very simple structure, people very much like a delicacy, its eyes are as high as more than 200, its life form and body composition is far beyond our imagination, more complex than the human body.
The number of eyes between different types of individuals is different, most animals living on the earth have only two eyes, our visual range is very limited, take humans, our two eyes see only the front, with the afterglow of the eyes can see the left and right sides, but we can not see some of the phenomena that occur behind us, the restriction is still relatively high.
We feel very insecure when we do something with our backs to some people, the gap between the eyes of insects and the eyes of humans is relatively large, insects have compound eyes, and when they see something in their eyes, it may not be one, but multiple, or even innumerable.
Octopus is also a seabed creature, once this was considered a low-level organism species, scientists after analyzing its body structure, found that the number of octopus eyes is also very large, and and very close to people, their eyes imaging is clearer than human eyes. Some people think that the strangeness of octopus eyes is not only in the number, but also in the four-dimensional world, where is the four-dimensional world? What's the scene inside? No one knows, so what is the role of these more than 200 eyes of scallops? What is the gap between the world they see and humanity?
Scallops generally float in the water, catching some food debris and plankton for food, and they run away when they encounter predators, relying not on touch or hearing, but on their own more than 200 eyes. Their eyes are also not white, but crystals with a lot of concentrated light. The reason why the human eye can see a variety of objects is that after light enters the eye, it is transmitted to the brain through nerves on the retina through the way of focusing, and scallops are different from human colors.
Even if we know how scallop eyes work, we can't tell what the world is like in their eyes, and what the role of these 200 or so eyes is. Scientists believe that even if they have very strong vision, but due to the limitations of body structure, dragging a heavy shell will be very affected when escaping. In the future, more optical devices may be invented by studying the eyes of scallops. What do you think of these 200+ eyes of scallops?
