What is the area located behind the cornea and in front of the iris?

  1. Anterior Chamber

  2. Posterior Chamber

  3. Choroid

  4. Vitreous humor

The correct answer is: Anterior Chamber

The area located behind the cornea and in front of the iris is known as the anterior chamber, option A. The other options are incorrect because the posterior chamber, option B, is located behind the iris and in front of the lens, not the cornea. The choroid, option C, is a layer of tissue between the sclera and retina, and is not specifically located behind the cornea. The vitreous humor, option D, is a gel-like substance located behind the lens, not in front of the iris.
