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.
