Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases which result in damage to the optic nerve and vision loss. A major risk factor is increased pressure in the eye. The disorders can be roughly divided into two main categories:  open-angle  and  closed-angle  (or  angle closure ) glaucoma.laucoma is a group of eye diseases which result in damage to the optic nerve and vision loss.

Q: A geochemical cycle that cycles material by mantle convection, subduction, and seafloor spreading is A: A geochemical cycle that cycles material by mantle convection, subduction, and seafloor spreading is TECTONIC. Weegy: erosion. The rock cycle includes the formation, breakdown, and reformation of a rock as a result of sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic processes.
It is the largest layer of the Earth, 1800 miles thick. The mantle is composed of very hot, dense rock. This layer of rock even flows like asphalt under a heavy weight. This flow is due to great temperature differences from the bottom to the top of the mantle.hen the convection currents flow in the mantle they also move the crust. The crust gets a free ride with these currents. A conveyor belt in a factory moves boxes like the convection currents in the mantle moves the plates of the Earth.
