Health
1 answer:
makkiz [27]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Quackery is defined as a dishonest practice from someone who claims to have knowledge and/or skill in a particular subject or <u>field</u>. This is most common in the medical field.

Fraud, on the other hand, is wrongful (illegal) or dishonest practice with the intent on gaining financial gain.

The difference between the two is that quackery typically only applies to medical practices, whereas fraud can apply to just about anyone who is involved in any sort of deceptive and/or fraudulent practice.

Explain what bursitis is and what characteristics the mentioned sporting activities have in common?
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

Explanation:

Bursitis occurs when the bursa inflames. This can happen due to some activities using some joints for a prolonged time and with a lot of force. This bursa is essentially a sac that is filled with synovial fluid and it is located where there is direct contact between bones. This is there to reduce friction between some tendons or muscles and the bones in a joint. Cycling, long-distance running, and tennis are all high impact sports and really overuse some joints like the knees or wrists.
