Your friend isn't convinced her workouts should include bone strengthening exercises, and she questions spending time and energy

on them. What should you tell her?
Now is the perfect time because peak bone mass happens at our age.

Activity will protect against bone density loss but not osteoporosis.

As much as you strengthen now, it will hardly affect you later.

Teen bone mass development is minimal so waiting is smart.

Answer:

Now is the perfect time because peak bone mass happens at our age.

Explanation:

Adolescence stands out for being a determining step for the process of bone growth and development. Approximately 15% of the final bone size and 48% of total bone mass are reached in adolescence. The peak bone mass is reached around 20 to 24 years. Therefore, it is essential to ensure adequate calcium, vitamin D intake and bone strengthening exercises even when we are young. Building quality bones allows us to ensure that we get a good initial reserve, which slowly runs out over the years.

I would say hat now is the perfect time because peak bone mass happens at our age. Bone strengthening exercises are always good for your body no matter what, so encourage her/him to do it. I'm guessing the age is about 11-18 maybe...

Hope this helps... mark as Brainliest plz

What of the following terms describes how quickly glucose is absorbed from a food after ingestion, how high blood glucose rises
suter [353]

Answer:

Glycemic response

Explanation:

The glycemic response is the term that describes how quickly glucose is absorbed from a food after eating and how blood glucose rises as a result and how quickly glucose returns to normal.

The glycemic response is used as a way to classify foods based on their potential to raise glucose (blood sugar), since the glycemic response is a measure of the impact of a given food on the blood sugar level. Foods with faster rates of digestion and absorption of carbohydrates cause blood sugar levels to rise faster than those foods with a lower glycemic response, when glucose is released slowly into the blood.

In this image, what must the students' muscles do to pull the rope? twitch and tighten relax and twitch tighten and contract con
il63 [147K]
The correct answer is: tighten and contract
This is is the correct answer because muscle fibers need to first reach an optimal length and tension ratio or "tighten" in order for the muscle to perform work. After the muscle has tightened, it can then "contract" which leads to a decrease in the angle of the joint through force. If the muscle being used to pull the rope is the bicep on the arm, then the angle between the forearm and upper arm will decrease, causing the rope to be pulled.
