When a patient is treated with large doses of atropine, the nurse should look out for symptoms relating to the drug's antimuscarinic properties like blurred vision, constipation, difficulty with urination, skin rash and xerostomia.

Sinus Bradycardia is a condition whereby a person's heart rhythm is slower than normal ( in adults, it could be as slow as 50 beats per minute ). When this occurs, the heart pumps blood too slowly to supply the patient's body system with enough blood. it happens to mostly adults over the age of 60 years. If conditions persist despite respiratory support, atropine is administered.

Atropine is an anticholinergic drug used to increase the heart rate of a person having sinus bradycardia. When administered in large doses, the patient experiences adverse side effects due to the drug's antimuscarinic effects, like blurred vision, constipation and xerostomia.

Over time, what happens to a trait that is an advantage to an organism?
Charra [1.4K]
I remember back in 10th grade I learned that birds that had beaks that were easier to break the seeds carried those traits to their babies and the whole area had that type of beak since it was necessary to break some seeds. So the beaks that were a disadvantage no longer existed and the beaks that became an advantage passed along to all the other birds.

Side note: if they all had the same beak they could all fight for the same type of seeds and probably have some sort of intense competition but idk if that’s necessary

Adh helps to conserve water during dehydration. <br> a. True <br> b. False
AlladinOne [14]
The Anti-diuretic Hormone helps to control blood pressure by acting on the kidneys and the blood vessels. Its most important role is to conserve the fluid volume of your body by reducing the amount of water passed out in the urine. And so in times of dehydration it could help your body save more water. I think the statement is correct.
