Glaucoma is a disease that results in blinding due to damage to the optic nerve. The damage is caused by the build up of eye-fluid, or aqueous humor, in the eye. The increased fluid exerts a pressure on the optic nerve, causing damage. Prostaglandin inhibitors act by increasing aqueous humor outflow, effectively draining the eye fluid and preventing damage.

Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

1. Mistletoe is parasitic to the mesquite tree, it steals from the tree without giving anything valuable back to it. In this case, only the mistletoe gains an advantage.

2. If the mistletoe population on the tree were to increase, the mistletoe would probably end up slowly killing the tree. I say this because its a parasite to the tree. Its constantly stealing water and valuable minerals that it needs and doesnt give back anything that could help the tree. With all the water and minerals being stolen and an uneven rate with no way for the tree to replenish it all quickly enough it'll die.

3. Its parasitic since the mistletoe just takes and takes harmfully

D) The blue parrot population has likely increased in the last 200 years.


The answer is B. This is because the graph shows the highest number of green parrots in the 'deep forest' category of environment, whereas the numbers in the 'grassland' and 'scrub forest' are less. Since the forested area in Brazil has decreased rapidly, this means that the preferred environment of the green parrot has decreased, probably resulting in a decline in the green parrot population
