Your body would be unable to sustain equilibrium without external and internal stimulation. Homeostasis is a characteristic of systems that manages their internal environment and tends to maintain a stable, continuous state despite changing external variables.

Without external and internal stimuli, your body would not be able to maintain homeostasis. Homeostasisis a property of systems that regulates their internal environment (blood levels, temperature, nutrient levels, etc.) and tends to maintain a stable, constant condition despite changing external conditions.

Diagnose: Mrs. Harris is a 60 year old white woman. She has noticed in recent years that her height has slightly decreased. Rece

Brut [27]

Answer:

Q: Which skeletal system disorder might she be suffering from?

A: Osteoporosis

Q: What techniques could be used to diagnose her condition?

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

Q: What treatments are available?

A: Medication, healthy food.

Explanation:

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

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

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

I need some help please! Compare and contrast covalent bonds and ionic bonds.

Tanya [424]

Covalent bonds are formed when two atoms are able to share electrons.

Iroinic bonds are form when two atoms are electrons from each other to complete the bond. This results in a pair of ions.

Covalent bonds:

Have a definite shape.
Have a low melting point.
At room temperature they are in a liquid or gas.
They occur between two non-metals.

Ionic bonds:

Have no definite shape.
Have a high melting point.
At room temperature they are solid.
They occur between a metal and a nonmetal.

8. Explain how cells move large particles into the cell by endocytosis.

Deffense [45]

It is possible for large molecules to enter a cell by a process called endocytosis, where a small piece of the cell membrane wraps around the particle and is brought into the cell. If the particle is solid, endocytosis is also called phagocytosis.
