Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
The pupil is the opening in the center of the iris that allows light to enter the eye. It contracts or dilates (becomes smaller or larger) in response to changes in lighting conditions to regulate the amount of light entering the eye. The other structures listed (cornea, lens, and retina) do not directly control the amount of light entering the eye.
