Answer: This is TRUE for me. Osteoporosis is a preventable disease.
Explanation:
In this condition, bone density ( the amount of bone tissue) is reduced because it's deposition does not keep pace with resorption. Although the bone is adequately mineralised, it is fragile and microscopically abnormal, with loss of internal structure.
Peak bone mass occurs around 35 years and then gradually declines in both sexes. Lowered oestrogen levels after the menopause are associated with a period of accelerated bone loss in women. Thereafter bone density in women is less than in men for any given age. That is why in North America, one-third of all women experience fractures because of this disease, amounting to about 2 million bone fractures per year.
Common features of osteoporosis are:
--> skeletal deformity: gradual loss of height with age, caused by compression of vertebrae.
--> bone pain
--> fractures: especially of the hip ( neck of femur), wrist and vertebrae.
It is TRUE for me that some risk factors can't be changed ( which is the low oestrogen levels that occur after menopause in women) but others, such as poor calcium intake, can.
Exercise and Calcium intake during childhood and adolescence are important in determining eventual bone mass of an individual and in preventing risk of osteoporosis in later life.
If they understand how they work, it helps them with create new vaccines, medicines, etc.

Answer:
D.6
Explanation:
because the order was 1200 mg and when you went the available strength was 200 mg , so 200 divide by 1200 is 6
Answer:
The answer is: Testosterone
Explanation:
Testosterone is an androgen and primary male sex hormone produced by the gonads. In males, this hormone is responsible for the development of the male reproductive tissues, and promoting the secondary sexual characteristics in males such as growth of body hair, increase in the bone mass and muscle mass.
