How will the obstruction of the canal of Schlemm will result?

Obstruction of the canal of Schlemm can lead to increased intraocular pressure, which may result in glaucoma. Glaucoma can cause damage to the optic nerve and potentially lead to vision loss if left untreated. Treatment may include medications, laser therapy, or surgery to reduce intraocular pressure and prevent further vision loss.


WHat is most likely to cause an increase in a predator population?

An increase in prey availability is most likely to cause an increase in a predator population as more food leads to better survival and reproduction rates for the predators. Additionally, a decrease in competition from other predators or a decrease in predation pressure from other sources can also contribute to a rise in predator numbers.

Which one of the following situations would cause air pressure to rise an increase in temperature cold air entering the region moisture entering the air?

An increase in temperature would cause air pressure to rise. As air warms, its molecules gain more kinetic energy and spread further apart, leading to an increase in pressure. Cold air entering a region or moisture entering the air would not directly cause air pressure to rise.
