Answer to Question 1

1
Open-angle glaucoma is characterized by a gradual increase in pressure and a gradual loss of vision. Closed-angle glaucoma presents with a sudden onset causing headache, blurred vision, and eye pain.

Answer to Question 2

3
In response to exercise, the body will release endorphins from the pituitary gland, thalamus, spinal cord, and hypothalamus. This neurotransmitter aids to inhibit pain. Exercise does not reduce serotonin, acetylcholine, or dopamine.
