No two people suffering from this condition share the same measure of difficulty. In fact‚ though there are various forms

Problem What do additives – like citric acid‚ sugar‚ salt‚ baking soda‚ cornstarch‚ and powdered milk – do to the strength ̸̸̸density of gelatin? Hypothesis I hypothesize that the higher the density of the additive is‚ the higher strength/density the gelatin will have. The materials you will need for this experiment are; • 2 packs of unflavoured Knox gelatin (1 box) • A pencil/pen and paper to record data • 3 tablespoons of citric acid • 3 tablespoons of sugar • 3 tablespoons of salt • 3 tablespoons

definition of each. 1. Compression fracture occurs when bone surfaces are being forced against each other. This type of fracture is common with people suffering from osteoporosis. 2. Greenstick fracture is a break that does not extend through the bone. With greenstick fractures‚ the bone is broken on one side where as the other side is bent. This fracture is also known as an incomplete fracture. 3. Comminuted fracture occurs when a segment bone splinters or crushes due to great force applied. 4. Impacted

It occurs when blood supply is temporarily cut off from the bone. The bone begins to die‚ a process that doctors
