Osteoporosis refers to a disorder featured by diminished bone mass and loss of bone tissue, which may result in fragile and weak bones.  


Osteoporosis can be caused by having an excess amount of calcium year after year. Thus, in order to inhibit the consumption of additional calcium, the body constitutes as less vitamin D as probable. Hyperthyroidism greatly enhances both the consumption of calcium into the bones and expulsion from the bones, ultimately resulting in osteoporosis.  


In an experiment, Dr. Travis examined the effects of calcium intake on osteoporosis, a condition that causes an increased risk of bone fractures. The amount of calcium is the independent variable. The risk of bone fractures is the dependent variable .

Answer:

The risk of bone fractures is the dependent variable.

Explanation:

A dependent variable is a variable that needs something to happen, in other words, this variable depends on a condition, this condition is the independent variable. In the case of the experiment set out in the question, Dr. Travis examined the effects of calcium intake on osteoporosis, a condition that causes an increased risk of bone fracture, in which case the risk of bone fracture depends on the existence of calcium intake. For this reason, we can conclude that the risk of increased bone fracture is a dependent variable, because it needs the occurrence of calcium intake, which is the independent variable.

​Trace how the Watergate crisis brought an end to the Nixon presidency.
Tamiku [17]
The Watergate break-in started when a group of men, known as the "plumbers," broke into the Democratic headquarters. They were arrested for this break-in.

Shortly after this two reporters from the Washington Post (Woodward and Bernstein) found that the current US president, Richard Nixon, might have been involved in ordering this break-in. Their confidential source provided details on how Nixon was involved.

Nixon denied these claims. However, a full scale investigation was launched. During this investigation, the court ordered Nixon to hand over recorded conversations from his office in the White House. He refused, was brought to court, and the Supreme Court ruled that he must turn over the recorded conversations.

These tapes showed Nixon's guilty, causing him to resign shortly after the court case.

What are the rock chambers in ancient india used for
Papessa [141]

Answer:

It is there history of there creativity of making the design of the Rock for Kings and other richer people so that their place can look better then any other

Explanation:

Indian rock-cut architecture has more examples than any other form of rock-cut architecture in the world.

[1] Rock-cut architecture defines the practice of creating a structure by carving it out of solid natural rock. The craftsman removes rock not part of the structure until the architectural elements of the excavated interior constitute the only rock left. Indian rock-cut architecture, for the most part, is religious in nature.

[2] In India, caves have long been regarded as places of sanctity. Enlarged or entirely man-made caves hold the same sanctity as natural caves. The sanctuary in all Indian religious structures, even free standing ones, retain the same cave-like feeling of sacredness, being small and dark without natural light.

Curiously, Buddhist monks created their cave hermitages near trade routes that crossed northern India during the time of Christ. As wealthy traders became aware of the Buddhist caves, they became benefactors of expansion of the caves, the building of monolithic rock-cut temples, and of free-standing temples. Emperors and rulers also supported the devotional work and participated in the spiritual devotional services. Very likely, traders would use the hermitages for worship on their routes. As Buddhism weakened in the face of a renewed Hinduism during the eighth century C.E., the rock structure maintenance, expansion, and upgrading fell to the Hindus and Jains. Hindu holy men continued building structures out of rock, dedicating temples to Hindu gods like Shiva, until mysteriously they abandoned the temples around the twelfth century C.E. They abandoned the structures so completely that even local peoples lost knowledge of the awesome structures in their midst. Only in the nineteenth century, when British adventurers and explorers found them, did India rediscover the awesome architecture that comprises world treasures.
