Answer:

The phenomenon in which osteoclast results in the degradation of the old bones and encourages the generation of novel bones by the assistance of osteoblasts is termed as bone remodeling. The remodeling of bones takes place throughout life, that is, whenever it is required. Some of the elements that monitor the process of bone remodeling are the concentration of serum vitamin D, serum level of calcium, and the level of calcitonin and growth hormone in the blood.  

Thus, whenever the bone gets degrade or becomes useless it gets replaced by the process of bone remodeling. Hence, the hypothesis of 'use it' here signifies the usage of bones or else they will get useless or get degrade.  

In the process of bone remodeling formation of more dense bones takes place due to the renewal of the destructed bones. This results in the presence of both the damaged bones and the newly formed bones at the same time, hence, it can be concluded that more bones are present at the time of bone remodeling.

Answer:

in my oppinion its call a  

source of pergisol

Explanation:

What if climate change is self-sustaining? This is already the case, for example, with melting arctic sea ice. This reflects solar radiation, which allows the ocean, located under the ice, to stay cold. But when sea ice melts, the ocean absorbs heat from the sun, which melts more ice. In general, it is difficult to predict the tipping point where such a feedback loop will engage.

Spread over more than 23,000,000 km2, at the top of the globe, permafrost (permanently frozen ground) could enter such a vicious circle. Normally, up to 4 m of soil and plant debris cover the permafrost. This top layer (called the active layer) normally melts every summer, and freezes in winter. It thus protects the permafrost from the rise in heat outside. But in the spring of 2018, a team working at a research station in Tchersky, Russia, discovered that near-surface land had not frozen over at all during the long, dark polar night.
