In "The Light of Gandhi's Lamp," Hilary Kromberg Inglis writes about how she feels before meeting her sister's jailer: And here

I was, wanting to reach out, to take his hands in mine, to make him gentle, to settle the demons he thought he saw in my sister’s face. I wanted to tame him—to save my sister’s life. Could I do that, only nineteen years old, a white girl “on the other side”—in his eyes, a traitor, a communist, with viciously dishonorable intentions of overthrowing the white apartheid government? What does this passage suggest about Inglis's view of her situation?

This passage suggests that Inglis, despite her goals for change, is afraid, and realizes the challenge of her situation. 

She wants to not only change Apartheid, but change the heart and perspective of the guard at her sister's jail, though she knows fully-well that this is going to be a difficult task. She also fears what will happen if she is unable to soften him.

It suggests, with great subtlety, her feeling that the authorities were wrong to think that she wanted to overthrow the government.

krok68 [10]

Answer:

The author presents the Reverend as an eyewitness to multiple examples of Scoresby's good fortune, which adds reliability to his account.

Explanation:

According to the book "Luck" by Mark Twain, the story is told of an English war hero Lord Scoresby who is a total idiot but managed to achieve legendary status by sheer luck. The Reverend was an instructor to Scoresby at military academy and tells how Scoresby somehow got through military school even though he is a complete idiot.

Therefore the author advances the plot through the use of the Reverend character by presenting Reverend as an eyewitness which adds reliability and credibility to his account.

find out any three bone diseases write their causes and what you can do to stop the contition of bone becomeing worse
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

1. Osteoarthritis. The most common type, osteoarthritis is the "wear-and-tear" form that increases with age. Cartilage that normally cushions the joint breaks down over time, leading to stiffness and pain, especially with movement. With hip arthritis and knee arthritis, walking becomes more difficult as pain builds, and flexibility decreases. Adults in their 50s and older are more likely to develop this chronic, progressive disease, and women are more vulnerable. Surgical replacement of large joints, such as hip replacement or knee replacement, is needed in some cases.

2. Metabolic bone diseases. Osteoporosis is one of several metabolic bone diseases. These are disorders of bone strength caused by mineral or vitamin deficiencies (such as vitamin D, calcium, or phosphorus) that result in abnormal bone mass or structure. Osteomalacia (softening of the bones), hyperparathyroidism (overactive gland leading to bone calcium loss), Paget disease of bone (abnormally large, weakened bones), and developmental bone disorders affecting children are all different types of metabolic bone diseases.

3. tress fractures are more common in active people like runners.

Explanation:

For rheumatoid arthritis, medications to slow the disease process include older drugs like methotrexate (Trexall and others) and sulfasalazine (Azulfidine). Biologic drugs such as adalimumab (Humira) and etanercept (Enbrel) reduce inflammation by targeting the immune system. Low-dose steroids are sometime used for short-term treatment.
