Conn disease, also called primary aldosteronism, is characterized by excretion of excessive amounts of aldosterone.
Aldosterone is a hormone secreted by the adrenal gland, specifically in its cortex. It influences the hydroelectrolytic equilibrium by increasing the reabsorption of sodium (and by the way water) and elimination of potassium in the <span>distal convoluted tubule in the kidney.
In Conn's syndrome, there's an increase of aldosterone due to a tumor, carcinoma of hyperplasia, its most important symptom is neuromuscular trouble due to hypokalemia.</span>

natta225 [31]

The term that describes the sheep in this scenario is prey, consumer and primary consumer.

A. Prey

B. Consumer

C. Primary consumers

<u>Explanation:</u>

It is given here that the sheep graze on the grass. Thus sheep is a consumer. When we get into the details of trophic levels in the ecosystem we can understand that autotrophs are the producers of an ecosystem. The organisms that feed on autotrophs are primary consumers.

Here grass is the producer and sheep is the primary consumer since it feeds on the grass. It is also given here that the ranchers have to keep the sheep away from predators. This makes the sheep a prey too. The animals that feed on primary consumers are called secondary consumers.
