The girl is suffering from osteopenia.

The osteopenia is a condition, in which the bone mass of the person is significantly reduced. High amount of training and less intake of fats may cause a decrease in the hormone estrogen in young girls. this decrease in the hormone may lead to the irregular periods as well as decrease in bone mass, which eventually causes osteopenia. the osteopenia is a precursor of the osteoporosis, the osteopenia later, if untreated causes a further decrease in bone mass and porous bone (osteoporosis).

Axons of the nervous system are described as afferent and efferent according to the direction in which they carry information. W
Ahat [919]

Answer:

The correct option is b) motor output of the spinal cord

Explanation:

Motor neurons, also called afferent neurons, drive impulses from the brain and spinal cord to the receptors (eg, muscles). They are the motor output component of the spinal cord.

The spinal cord is a cord of nerve tissue that runs inside the spine. It conducts the nerve impulses that arrive from the receptors to the brain, and the responses with the motor orders from the brain to the effector organs. Thus, the brain receives the information and can develop an order that modifies the reflex response given by the spinal cord. A spinal nerve has two nerve roots: a motor and a sensory root. The motor root has nerve fibers that carry signals from the spinal cord, to the muscles to stimulate contraction and produce muscle movements, the fibers are efferent as they leave the medulla to the periphery through the anterior roots of the spinal nerves.

maw [93]

A community should use sustainable practices to produce food because "it protects the environment, farming communities and farmed species".

<u>Answer:</u> Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

The practice of sustainable food production is a united network that integrates several components with the development of each and every individual covered in the food chain in order to protect the environmental, economic and social well-being of a community.

The advantages of such practice are production of less greenhouse gases, fossil fuel utilization is minimized and more dependent on human labor inspite of chemicals and energy-intensive technology. Sustainable farms conserve scarce water resources, encourage biodiversity and build healthy soil through composting and planting techniques that cover crops.
