Verified step by step guidance1
Identify the anatomical location referred to as the 'orbital cavity'. The orbital cavity, also known as the eye socket, is a bony structure in the skull that houses the eye and its associated structures.
Review the list of options provided: olfactory epithelium, teeth, eye, and middle ear ossicles.
Understand the function and location of each option: The olfactory epithelium is involved in the sense of smell and is located in the nasal cavity. Teeth are located in the oral cavity. The middle ear ossicles are small bones located in the middle ear.
Recognize that the eye is the organ responsible for vision and is housed within the orbital cavity, along with muscles, nerves, and blood vessels that support its function.
Conclude that among the given options, the eye is the correct answer as it is the structure housed in the orbital cavity.
