Brut [27]

<u>Answer:</u>

Q: Which skeletal system <u>disorder</u> might she be suffering from?

A: <u>Osteoporosis</u>

Q: What <u>techniques</u> could be used to diagnose her condition?

A: <u>Bone mineral density (BMD) test</u> or <u>dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan</u>

Q: What treatments are available?

A: Medication, healthy food.

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u>The vertebral discs between vertebrae could shrink with age</u>. Therefore, a height loss up to 1-inch is normal. However, if the height loss is more then it is possibly due to <u>osteoporosis</u>.

A <u>bone mineral density test</u>, also known as <u>dual energy X-ray absorptiometry</u> scan, is a well-adapted test to measure the amount of calcium and other minerals in the bones. It uses <u>X-rays</u> to measure the content of calcium and thus strength of bones.

A person who is already suffering from osteoporosis should be treated with <u>medicine</u> right away so that it <u>stops</u> further <u>deterioration of the bones</u> and <u>avoid any future bone fractures</u>. Further, it can be handled by <u>eating a healthy diet</u> and <u>supplements</u> such as <u>vitamins D</u>. In case some of the bones/vertebrae are <u>already fractured</u>, <u>surgical approaches</u> might be necessary.

6) What process is shown in the diagram
marusya05 [52]
Answer: B

Why? It is not A or D for many reasons but cell differentiation is used for very specific functions as cell determination is used for different embryonic functions. Based on the diagram I seems to me that it is not very specific so that’s why I think it’s B
(If it’s not be then is 100% C but B makes more sense)

Hope this helps
