What is Atropine used as an antidote for?

Avian hazards
Arachnids infestations
Organophosphate and carbamate poisoning
Attracting pests

The correct answer is: Organophosphate and carbamate poisoning

Atropine is used as an antidote for organophosphate and carbamate poisoning. These substances are often found in pesticides and exposure to them can cause serious health hazards. Therefore, atropine is not used for avian hazards (A), which typically refers to potential dangers posed by birds, or for arachnid infestations (B), which are infestations of spiders or other arachnids. Additionally, atropine is not used for attracting pests (D), as it is used as an antidote and not a means of attraction or control.
