Answer:
Explanation:
When osteocytes were experimentally destroyed, the bones showed a significant increase in bone resorption, decreased bone formation, trabecular bone loss, and loss of response to unloading. ... The osteocyte is an important regulator of bone mass and a key endocrine regulator of phosphate metabolism.
Answer:
I believe it is Adenosine 5'-triphosphate

Answer:
The ability of body systems to increase their function, given the need to adapt, is known as the <u>physiologic reserve.</u>
Explanation:
The ability of body systems to increase their function if the need to adapt arises is known as a physiological reserve. Frequently, this term is used to refer to the operating limits of a particular physiological system when under stress. When this stress exceeds the ability of a particular organ or system to compensate for it, organ failure occurs. Adaptation achieves its highest efficiency when changes are generated gradually/progressively rather than abruptly. In aging, this reserve is diminished and therefore the ability of the organs to adapt to stress is lower, that is, the ability to adapt is reduced in extreme ages.

Answer:
- light positioning: c. Extrinsic muscles; d. Pupil
- sensory processing: a. Photoreceptors; b. Occipital cortex; e. Bipolar cells
Explanation:
Extrinsic (extraocular) muscles are muscles that modulate both eye movement and position, whereas intrinsic (intraocular) muscles are muscles that focus the eye and control how much light enters into the eye. The pupil is the black center of the eye within the iris through which light passes before being focused onto the retina. Photoreceptors are specialized neurons located in the retina that respond to light, converting it into electrical signals that can stimulate biological processes. Photoreceptors in the retina are divided into two categories 1-rods (responsible for vision at low light levels), and 2-cones (active at higher light). Bipolar cells are neurons that transmit signals from the photoreceptors to the ganglion cells, thereby processing light signals received from rods and cones. The occipital cortex is a brain region that represents the visual processing center and contains most of the anatomical region of the visual cortex.
