Answer:

Bones become less dense as we age for several reasons, including:

An inactive lifestyle causes bone wastage.

Hormonal changes – in women, menopause triggers the loss of minerals in bone tissue.

In men, the gradual decline in sex hormones leads to the later development of osteoporosis.

Alex Ar [27]

<span>B. Section headings</span>

Section headings serve as guide to the reader, marking the different subdivisions and topics to be discussed. By simply looking at a text with section headings, the reader can see the overview of the whole ­­article or essay. However, long paragraphs bore the reader and ruin the interest of the reader. Likewise, abstract technical vocabulary distracts the reader’s attention and makes the passage appear difficult to understand. Lastly, complex sentence structure is similar to long paragraphs. They make the reader lose interest in the material and often miss the main idea being explained.

saw5 [17]
Trees are helpful perennial plants.  They help combat climate change, clean the air, provide oxygen, cool the environment, and help prevent water pollution and soil erosion and a number of other benefits. Without trees, surviving life here on earth would be impossible. Trees absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen back into the air. They can also absorb odors and harmful gases and pollutants in the air by trapping them on their leaves and bark. They provide oxygen and have the capacity to cool the environment by bringing shades and releasing water vapor through their leaves. They help prevent water pollution, too, since they prevent rainfall from carrying pollutants to the ocean and other bodies of water. In preventing soil erosion, they have the capability to hold soil in place.
