Name four of the five genetic risk factors for osteoporosis.

1) Sex 2) Age 3) Family history 4) Body frame size. If you are female, you have a greater risk of developing osteoporosis. The older you are, the greater your risk for developing the disease is. If you have a parent or sibling who has osteoporosis, this increases your risk for the disease. People with smaller body frames tend to have a higher risk for osteoporosis due to the lessened amount of bone mass.

List and describe the four types of bones, including function and examples.

1) Short bones: Small, cubical skeletal structures that provide limited gliding motions and serve as shock absorbers. i.e. the carpals and tarsals. 2) Flat bones: Skeletal structures that are largely flat in shape and protect underlying organs and soft tissues and also provide large areas for muscle and ligament attachments. i.e. the scapula 3) Irregular bones: Skeletal structures of irregular shape that fulfill special functions in the body. i.e. vertebrae and the sacrum 4) Long bones: skeletal structures consisting of a long shaft with bulbous ends that form the framework of the appendicular skeleton. i.e. the femur

Explain the female athlete triad.

The female athlete triad consists of the following diseases: disordered eating, amenorrhea (absence of menstruation), and osteoporosis (reduced bone mineral density that predisposes individuals to fractures). The female athlete triad involves a combination of the following factors: 1) low energy availability, which may occur with or without disordered eating, 2) menstrual dysfunction, with amenorrhea, or the absence of menses, being the worst case, and 3) diminished bone mineral density.

ACSM recommends children and adolescents to perform weight-bearing exercises during their pre-pubic years, increasing growth hormone and maximize bone density.

Explain Wolff's law, including why it is important.

Wolff's law indicates that bone strength increases and decreases as the functional forces on the bone increase and decrease.
