Aperture, Shutter Speed and ISO

Aperture

1. What part of the body should we closely relate aperture?

The "pupil" of your lens.

2. Finish this sentence - the smaller the Aperture, the higher the Aperture.

The smaller the aperture the darker the photo is, the higher the aperture the more light shown. 

3. In your own words tell me how aperture impacts Depth of Field?

Larger aperture makes for a shallow effect on the photo making the subject more prominent than the background. While smaller aperture makes the background less blurry, perfect for landscape photos to highlight all elements.
