What really causes Osteoporosis? The first thing is it is very common in women but not really for men‚ but they too can get Osteoporosis to. Another thing is when women stop menstrulating Bone loss will start to happen then after that there Estrogens leve start to go down really fast. Younger women that went through menopause cause of sports or they are anoxria are more likely to get Osteoporosis‚ the reason is they are slowly losing bone loss. People that had surgery to remove both of their Ovaries

Introduction A complex ion consists of a metal ion with Lewis bases attached to it. These Lewis bases form strong coordinate covalent bonds with the central complex ion in which both electrons of the bond are donated by the Lewis base. The Lewis bases that form this complex are referred to as ligands and they are typically either neutral molecules or anions. Polydentate ligands have multiple lone pairs of electrons that enable them to bond multiple atoms to the central metal atom. The stability

According to this article Gorham–Stout disease‚ is a rare disease of unknown origin‚ characterized by massive osteolysis and proliferation of small blood or lymphatic vessels.” This meaning occurs when an over overgrowth lymphatic vessels cause severe bone loss. The bone tissues are destroyed and reabsorbed into the body. This disease goes by many names‚ but its more common name is phantom bone. This rare disease tends to show up mainly in young adults and children. Gorham–Stout disease affects both

Which type of sponge absorbs the most water?If there are different materials in a sponge then there are different outcomes of how water is being absorbed. A Natural Sponge an aquatic invertebrate with a soft porous body. An Artificial Sponge is a piece of soft‚ light‚ porous substance made of synthetic material‚ now used to absorb liquid used for washing and cleaning. Sponge is combined with a scouring pad on one side and the fiber on the other. One of its main attractions is the embedded antimicrobial

March 2013 ABSTRACT This study aimed to determine the permanent water hardness in terms of calcium carbonate concentration of water samples from the Boys’ dormitory‚ Administration Building‚ Gymnasium‚ Girls’ dormitory‚ and Canteen of PSHS-IRC together with the commercial drinking water Nature Spring‚ Absolute‚ and Wilkins through indirect titration. Water hardness was identified by the amount of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) in ppm. The control group consisting of the branded commercialized drinking

increase in intracellular calcium led to skeletal contractions. However it was not until the early 1960s when the way calcium ions were stored in cells became clearer thanks to work from Ebashi and Lipmann. (Burgoyne and Petersen‚ 1997). Calcium signalling determines whether or not a cell is activated. It is determined by calcium-ON and calcium-OFF mechanisms. Calcium-ON is responsible for pouring Ca2+ into the cytoplasm‚ from both internal and external sources. The calcium-OFF mechanism however removes
