I suppose that this information will help you.

Osteoporosis - a chronic, progressive system, metabolic diseases of the skeleton, or a clinical syndrome manifested in other diseases, which is characterized by decrease in bone density, a violation of their microarchitectonics and increased fragility, due to metabolic disorders of bone tissue with a predominance of catabolism of the processes of bone formation, decreased bone strength and increased risk of fractures.This definition refers to osteoporosis diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue (ICD-10) and completes his term "metabolic or metabolic diseases."

Osteoporosis is a condition wherein the bones become porous or brittle, which is the result from the overall reduction of the quantity of bone tissue. It occurs when the rate of bone reabsorption exceeds the rate of bone formation. The loss of bone mass makes the bones so porous and weakened that they become deformed and prone to fracture. One of the health issues that may be related to the cause of osteoporosis is the inadequate intake of dietary calcium. Individuals with osteoporosis often have insufficient intake of calcium, vitamin D, and vitamin C.

C. Insulating the body

Insulating the body is not a function of a protein.

Lipids are macromolecules which provide insulation.
<span>A macromolecule is a large molecule. There are four groups of macromolecules: carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids and lipids. Lipids consist of glycerol and fatty acids and are constructed from fats, oils, waxes, phospholipids and steroids. A lipid's function is to insulate the body and provide warmth in cold conditions. It can be concluded that a person with very little body fat gets very cold easily and a person with a lot of body fat gets very warm very quickly.

This condition is also known as nearsightedness:

Contact [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. Myopia is also known as nearsightedness.

Explanation:

Myopia is a refractive defect of the eye in which parallel light rays converge at a focal point located in front of the retina, instead of converging on the same retina; it is the inverse defect to farsightedness, in which the light rays reach the retina before converging.

A person with myopia has difficulty focusing well on distant objects, which causes visual acuity deficits and can also lead to headaches, strabismus, visual discomfort and eye irritation.

A mixture of the amino acids leucine, glutamate, and arginine, is added to a cation exchange column at neutral ph. in what order

natulia [17]

Cation-exchange chromatography is used when the molecule of interest is positively charged, the stationary phase is negatively charged and positively charged molecules are loaded to be attracted to it. So, the amino acids with negative charge will elute the first. Glutamate, leucin, arginine is the order of elution because of their pI values ~3, ~6 ~10.
