The descriptions that apply to the conjunctiva are:
- **A thin transparent membrane**
- **A mucus membrane**
- **Highly vascularized**
The conjunctiva is not avascular; it has blood vessels, making it highly vascularized. It is not a fibrous covering of the eye but serves to cover the inner surface of the eyelids and the white part of the eyeball (sclera).
