Who experiences a greater amount of bone deposition: a person who routinely exercises or a sedentary person? Explain your choice
What will be an ideal response?
The person who routinely exercises will experience a greater amount of bone deposition due to the stresses experienced by the bones. The heavier load a bone must carry, the more bone tissue is deposited to that bone. The sedentary person will experience a lesser amount of bone deposition since there is less stress applied to the bones.
