a childhood bone disorder in which bones soften and become prone to fractures. The main cause of rickets is a lack of vitamin D. Not having enough calcium in one’s diet can also cause rickets. Some childhood kidney and liver diseases can cause rickets. There are many symptom of rickets such as Bone pain‚ Bone tenderness‚ Bones break easily‚ Low calcium blood levels‚ Soft skull‚ there may be spinal‚ pelvic or cranial deformities‚ and toddlers may have bowed legs. Some causes of rickets is Genetic defect

first discovered in England during the year 1808 by Sir Humphry Davy. He was able to separate calcium into a pure metal by doing an electrolysis process on a mixture of lime HgO‚ which is mercuric oxide. However‚ Sir Humphry Davy was not able to do this until after he found out Berzelius and Pontin electrolysed lime into mercury which constructed calcium amalgam. Although he discovered calcium in 1808‚ calcium metal was not available in large amounts until the beginning of the twentieth century. Before

weakening of bones in children also known as Osteomalacia in adults‚ usually because of a vitamin D deficiency or genetic condition. Vitamin D is what promotes the absorption of calcium and phosphorous from the Gestational Intestines tract. When a person has a vitamin D insufficiency it makes it difficult to maintain proper calcium and phosphorous levels in the bones. There are several different

Experiment and Observation: In this experiment I developed a familiarity with the concept of water hardness‚ practice a titration technique using a titrator. By finding the total hardness‚ I was analyzing the water sample for the combined concentration of calcium and magnesium ions. When making the buffer‚ the sample turned blue‚ allowing me to get a sense of what color I would be looking for later on in the experiment. I tested my tap water for the total hardness by adding EDTA solution through a titrator

functions of nutrients help our bodies to maintain its daily functions. Iron‚ for an example is a very important mineral. This particular mineral is needed in the body because this would put us at risk of having anemia. Other minerals sources are calcium‚ phosphorus‚ and magnesium‚ which are needed for the bones. There are other minerals such as fluoride‚ which is important for the teeth as well as the bones. Then there is iodine‚ which is needed for the synthesis of the thyroid hormones. The other

maintains life. In reality there are 20 minerals that play a way bigger role than I ever knew in how healthy your body is and stays. Some minerals have a specific role it plays‚ where others play many different roles. Calcium is a good example of a mineral that has many roles. “Calcium alone keeps bones strong‚ regulates blood pressure‚ helps muscles contract‚ and transmits nerve signals from cell to cell” (Grosvenor & Smolin‚ 2006). Minerals have two functions in our bodies by either building
