Answer:
The correct answer is D. Reduced levels of circulating estrogens.
Explanation:
Estrogens prevent the loss of calcium and ensure its proper mineralization, thus preventing the bones from becoming brittle, maintaining the consistency of the skeleton and preventing osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is a skeletal disease in which there is a decrease in bone mass density. Thus, the bones become more porous, the number and size of the cavities or cells that exist inside them increases, they are more fragile, they resist shocks worse and they break more easily. Menopause is the definitive cessation of ovarian function that, externally, results in the disappearance of the menses and usually occurs around 50 years (the interval goes from 45 to 55 years). It is the gradual loss of calcium in the bones, which accelerates in the first years of menopause due to estrogen deficiency. At the beginning of the disease, there are no symptoms and, as it progresses, there is a tendency to suffer fractures, which leads to a decrease in height.
Answer:Radiometric dating allows us to indirectly date fossils up to billions of years old based on minerals in surrounding volcanic strata. The correct option is D.
Explanation:
Radiometric dating was first used by geologist after being published by Bertram Bollywood in 1907. During volcanic eruption, some minerals ( carbon) are trapped within the volcanic strata. These minerals are made up of radioactive isotopes which are unstable as they form decay products with a known constant rate of decay. This enables them to :
- access information about the absolute age of rocks,
- date a wide range of natural and man-made materials
- know even the age of earth. I hope this helps. Thanks
Answer:
it reacts easily with other substances. This is why they easily rust and oxidize when in contact with oxygen, and tarnish when meets water.
