The answer is Parathyroid Hormone (PTH). Steroids reduce calcium levels in the blood. This results in activation of the parathyroid hormone that is essential in the metabolism of calcium in the blood. PTH induces reabsorption of calcium from bones to restore homeostasis Ca2+ levels in the blood hence causing osteoporosis. Osteoporosis causes an increased risk of bone fractures.

givi [52]

Answer: Increase in compactness of the material.

Explanation:

Evaporites are the sedimentary rocks that are formed by the sediments and brines of the materials being degraded or withered from the parent and pre-existing rocks. The water is also lost from the withered material due to evaporation. The borax and gypsum also lose water to become evaporites and the increase in compactness due to loss of water molecules and increase in intramolecular forces between solid substances in the rock helps in sedimentation of the rock.

sladkih [1.3K]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

"Scientists are testing the effect of different scrubber technologies on the removal of pollutants from coal power plants. The scrubbers use a slurry of limestone and water. Which of the following best describes the impact of modifying the slurry by increasing the amount of limestone? The amount of sulfur dioxide released will decrease. A The amount of ground-level ozone released will decrease. B The amount of water released will increase. C The amount of carbon monoxide released will increase. "

Answer:

The amount of sulfur dioxide released will decrease.

Explanation:

As you may already know, coal is a fossil fuel and burning it releases many toxic gases into the atmosphere, including sulfur dioxide.

A suspension of water and limestone, allows the calcium present in limestone to enter into reaction with sulfur dioxide, forming calcium sulfide and decreasing the emission of sulfur in the atmosphere.

The greater the amount of limestone in this suspension, the less sulfur dioxide will be released into the environment.
