2. epiphyseal plates
3. bone mineral density (BMD)
4. obesity
5. food insecurity
6. life expectancy
7. arthritis
8. congregate meal
Explanation:
Picky eating is a behavior in early childhood when they refuse to eat certain foods and only want the same foods, while food jag is when a child only eats a small group of foods, meal after meal. The epiphyseal plate is a specialized layer of hyaline cartilage where chondrocytes (i.e., the only cells found in healthy cartilage) proliferate and differentiate during longitudinal bone growth. Arthritis is an inflammation of the joints caused by different reasons (e.g., injury, genetic causes, infections, immune system dysfunction, etc), whose risk increases with age. Bone mineral density (also known as bone density), is the amount of mineral in bone tissues, being the best manner to measure bone health. Obesity can be defined as an excessive amount of body fat that presents a risk to health. Over the past 30 years, the prevalence of obesity has doubled in children and tripled in adolescents, representing a serious health problem (especially in developed countries). Moreover, food insecurity is a social condition of limited access to food for individuals in a household to live an active, healthy life, which can be used as a metric of how many people cannot afford food. Life expectancy is an estimation of the number of years a person can expect to live in a given country/region. Life expectancy around the world has increased for nearly 200 years especially due to medical progress and access to food. Finally, a congregate meal refers to a healthy meal provided to anyone age 60 or over that encourages older adults' social connections with other persons at the meal sites.
This is called a joint. A place where two bones meet or come together is called a joint. The two bones are separated by cartilage to keep them from rubbing together.

Answer:Both plants and animals reproduce sexually, producing a male and female gamete, which fuse to form a zygote. However, plants are also able to reproduce asexually, unlike most animals. ... In sexual reproduction in animals, the two gametes are the spermatozoa and the oocyte, which when fused become the ovum.

Answer:
<u>In the mitochondrial matrix</u>
<u></u>
Explanation:
The mitochondria is an organelle within the cytoplasm of the cell. It consists of an outer membrane, inner membrane, and matrix containing a gel-like substance. During aerobic respiration in mitochondria, cells break down sugars in the form of glucose into
(carbon dioxide) and
(water) to obtain energy in the form of ATP or adenosine triphosphate.
aerobic respiration:
C6H12O6+ 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ≅38 ATP
(glucose) (oxygen) (carbon dioxide) + (water)
The Kreb's cycle involves several enzymatic reactions, where pyruvate derivatives obtained from glycolysis, are reduced and oxidized to harvest energy as ATP.
