How has living in zero gravity affected the three teens?
A
They have very low bone density and brittle bones
B
They can’t walk
C
They don’t have muscles
D
They are really smart
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In the microgravity environment aboard the orbiting International Space Station, bones and muscles don’t have to support the body’s mass (weight on Earth). Without Earth-like exercise, astronauts would experience bone and muscle loss or atrophy during their stays in space.

Detailed explanation-2: -Osteoporosis is a bone disease that develops when bone mineral density and bone mass decreases, or when the structure and strength of bone changes. This can lead to a decrease in bone strength that can increase the risk of fractures (broken bones).

Detailed explanation-3: -Osteoporosis is a health condition that weakens bones, making them fragile and more likely to break. It develops slowly over several years and is often only diagnosed when a fall or sudden impact causes a bone to break (fracture).

Detailed explanation-4: -Eat foods that support bone health. Get enough calcium, vitamin D, and protein each day. Get active. Choose weight-bearing exercise, such as strength training, walking, hiking, jogging, climbing stairs, tennis, and dancing. Don’t smoke. Limit alcohol consumption. 15-Nov-2022
