The given question is incorrect. The correct question is:

Question: A metabolic bone disorder, particularly common in postmenopausal women, is called.......

1. osteoporosis.

2. lordosis

3. kyphosis.

4. osteitis

5. deformans.

Answer:

1. osteoporosis.

Explanation:

Osteoporosis refers to the decreased bone mass and the resultant increased susceptibility to fractures. Women of older ages are more likely to be affected as a result of decreased levels of estrogens. Production of estrogens in women declines greatly at menopause. Estrogens serve to stimulate osteoblast activity. Osteoblasts are the cells of the bones and serve to secrete the proteins of the bone matrix. This results in reduced bone mass after menopause in women and causes osteoporosis.

If he goes up too much, the meaning of this is when the gas diffuses into their blood and out the gills.

Which of the following statements is consistent with the principle of competitive exclusion?
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

D) Even a slight reproductive advantage will eventually lead to the elimination of the less well adapted of two competing species.

Explanation:

The competitive exclusion describes relationship between two species that compete for the limiting sources, and cannot coexist. It is enough for one species to have slightly advantage to be dominant over the other. As a consequence, other species (the weaker one) will be extincted (shift to a different ecological niche).
