Bone resorption inhibitors prevent the breakdown of bone tissues and are therefore used to strengthen bone affected by osteoporosis.

<h3>What is osteoporosis? </h3>

It is a condition in which the bones have become weak and turned brittle. The term osteoporosis means 'porous bones. Osteoporosis weakens the bones and thus increases the risk of bone fractures which are sudden and unexpected.

This disease causes a decrease in bone density. It usually starts without any symptoms and doesn't cause any pain and is only diagnosed when a fracture has been caused in a weak bone.

Bone resorption is a natural process of breakdown of bone tissue to supply calcium to the body and this process is usually carried out with bone formation.

During osteoporosis, medications suppressing bone resorption are prescribed to inhibit or slow down the process of breakdown of bones

Which factor when doubled would produce the greatest change in the centripetal force?
yaroslaw [1]
Let us consider the centripetal force equation,  
centripetal force F = mv² / r  
 f= force
 v= velocity
 m= mass
 r= radius.
 
 in all the factors only velocity has the power of 2. so when you double the velocity then it will become square of that. 
 if v= 2v , F = m4v² / r 
 so velocity is doubled it would produce the greatest change in the centripetal force.

According to slide 12, what is the relationship between opportunistic infections and the number of T cells a person has? Explain
podryga [215]

Answer:

The fewer number of T cells a person has, the more chances to be affected by an opportunistic infection. When the number of T cells reaches 200 cells/µl, the person is at risk of being infected by other infections.  

Explanation:

The whole immune system of a person who is infected with HIV infection seems to be severely affected.  When the person is not treated or the disease is in a very advanced stage, the depletion of the T- cells turns to be very sharped, especially CD4+ T cells. At this point, the immune system can not resist the attack of other microorganisms. The <em>lower is the number of CD4+ T Cells, the higher possibility the person has to be attacked by opportunistic infections. </em>

Classically, it has been suggested that opportunistic infections appear after the CD4 + T lymphocytes reach very low levels, such as 200 cells/µl. The number of circulating T cells can be used as an indicator and a measure of global "immune competence", and the previously mentioned amount of CD4 + T cells is an accepted universal reference used to predict the risk of having one of these opportunistic infections.
