Where is the femur particularly susceptible to a fracture

1 answer:

7 0

The femur, whilst the strongest bone in the human body does have two week spots. The Neck and head of the femur, which connect to the Hip, is usually the cause of a broken "hip". This area is much weaker and less dense than that of the rest of the femur, making it fairly susceptible. <span />

They demonstrated that dissonance created by hypocrisy can change both attitudes and behaviors.

Explanation:

"As originally formulated (Festinger, 1957), cognitive dissonance is induced when a person holds two contradictory beliefs, or when a belief is incongruent with an action that the person had chosen freely to perform. Because this situation produces feelings of discomfort, the individual strives to change one of the beliefs or behaviors in order to avoid being inconsistent. Hypocrisy is a special case of cognitive dissonance, produced when a person freely chooses to promote a behavior that they do not themselves practice."
