Answer:

The best answer is "A"

Abnormality in extraocular movements on examination

Explanation:

a) Abnormality in extraocular movements on examination

Paralysis or weakness of extraocular muscles suggests a possible brainstem or cerebellar lesion.

Diplopia persisting in the right eye when the left eye is closed is incorrect. Diplopia in one eye while the other eye is closed suggests a problem in the cornea or lens. An associated conjunctivitis is incorrect. Conjunctivitis is an independent problem and generally a minor one. Worsening vision bilaterally on examination is incorrect. Worsening bilateral vision is common among elderly patients.

Symptoms of flashing lights is incorrect

What is the waste gas that the alveoli remove from the bloodstream<br>​
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a waste product of cellular metabolism. You get rid of it when you breathe out (exhale). This gas is transported in the opposite direction to oxygen: It passes from the bloodstream – across the lining of the air sacs – into the lungs and out into the open.

The smallest bronchioles end in tiny air sacs, called alveoli, which inflate during inhalation, and deflate during exhalation. Gas exchange is the delivery of oxygen from the lungs to the bloodstream, and the elimination of carbon dioxide from the bloodstream to the lungs.
