Answer: This is TRUE for me. Osteoporosis is a preventable disease.
Explanation:
In this condition, bone density ( the amount of bone tissue) is reduced because it's deposition does not keep pace with resorption. Although the bone is adequately mineralised, it is fragile and microscopically abnormal, with loss of internal structure.
Peak bone mass occurs around 35 years and then gradually declines in both sexes. Lowered oestrogen levels after the menopause are associated with a period of accelerated bone loss in women. Thereafter bone density in women is less than in men for any given age. That is why in North America, one-third of all women experience fractures because of this disease, amounting to about 2 million bone fractures per year.
Common features of osteoporosis are:
--> skeletal deformity: gradual loss of height with age, caused by compression of vertebrae.
--> bone pain
--> fractures: especially of the hip ( neck of femur), wrist and vertebrae.
It is TRUE for me that some risk factors can't be changed ( which is the low oestrogen levels that occur after menopause in women) but others, such as poor calcium intake, can.
Exercise and Calcium intake during childhood and adolescence are important in determining eventual bone mass of an individual and in preventing risk of osteoporosis in later life.

Answer: In part (A), Pgas>Patm, as evidenced by the column of mercury being "pushed up" in the manometer on the side of Patm - in this case, you'll need to add (the amount it's "pushed up") to atmospheric pressure (i.e., 764 mm Hg). You state that you tried to subtract 40.0 from 764.0: Look at the graphic again (I hold it's 7 cm - or 70 mm - Hg) and try adding that number to 764 mm Hg instead of 40 mm Hg.
Explanation:
The skin over your belly is cleaned. An incision is made in your belly. The tissue, blood vessels, and organs in your belly are carefully looked at and checked for problems. Tissue samples (biopsy) may be removed and sent to a lab for study.
