(C) The shining of eyes at night is due to the presence of a reflective layer called the $Tapetum 	ext{ } lucidum$ located behind the retina. This layer reflects light back through the retina, increasing the amount of light available to the photoreceptors, which enhances night vision. Cats, lions, and many fish possess this layer. Humans $(Man)$ lack the $Tapetum 	ext{ } lucidum$, which is why human eyes do not shine in the dark.
