Answer and Solution

Answer

D. By changing its size in response to light intensity

Solution:

The pupil in the human eye regulates the amount of light entering the eye by changing its size in response to the intensity of light. In bright conditions, the pupil constricts to reduce the amount of light, while in dim conditions, it dilates to allow more light to enter. Therefore, the correct answer is 'By changing its size in response to light intensity'.
