The right answer is Iatrogenic illness.

Glaucoma is an eye disease that affects mostly people over the age of 45. It is characterized by an increase in eye pressure leading to an impairment of the optic nerve and the visual field. They are treated with antiglaucomatous agents.

Some antiglaucomatous agents are betablockers, they certainly act on the ocular level by decreasing the ocular tension, but the long-term treatment makes that the drug goes to the blood level and acts at the level of the heart to cause a bradycardia.

He is experiencing an overdose of drugs to treat could occur if they are taken improperly, or if decreased liver or renal function occurs. Symptoms of overdose include severe nausea/vomiting, sweating, salivation, hypotension, bradycardia, convulsions, and increased muscle weakness, including respiratory muscles. This patient has diabetes and thus may have glycaemic issues. Bradycardia and muscle weakness.  Abdominal pain and dry mouth. Tachycardia and hypertension.  Emotional withdrawal and tachypnea.

What is an Obligate anaerobe? How do obligate anaerobes, like the bacteria C. Botulinum, get energy ?
Daniel [21]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>Obligate anaerobes are microbes that can only survive in oxygen-deficient environments. They are killed by the normal atmospheric level of oxygen and will only thrive in environments whose oxygen levels are lower than that of normal atmospheric level. </em>

Obligate bacteria such as <em>Clostridium botulinum </em>obtain their energy through <u>anaerobic respiration processes such as fermentation and anaerobic respiration.</u> During this process of fermentation, the lactic acid pathway is mostly used but other fermentation pathways such as propionic acid, mixed acid, acetogenesis, and methanogenesis pathways can be used.

How do microorganisms that act as producers benefit the rest of an ecosystem in terms of energy transfer? What about microorgani
malfutka [58]

Answer:

In an ecosystem, all organisms benefit in the process of transformation of energy.

Explanation:

An ecosystem works thanks to the constant transformation of energy. In the case of microorganisms that act as producers, they benefit the rest of the ecosystem in terms of energy transfer because they acquire the energy from a lowest trophic level to make it available for higher trophic levels.

In the case of the primary consumers, they are feeding from the primary producers, incorporating that energy to be part of the food chain. For example, bacteria in the soil are primary producer microorganisms; they transform organic material to make it available for small individuals. A soil worm is a primary consumer microorganism which will feed from this organic material transformed by the bacteria. The worm will then produce food and will be food for herbivores to continue with the flow of energy in the food chain.
