Give an example and a brief description of a pathological condition that affects the skeleton

An example of a pathological condition that affects the skeleton is Osteoporosis .

Explanation:

Osteoporosis is a disease that affects the skeleton in which the quality and density of bone are reduced. In this condition, the chances are high for easy bone fracture as they become fragile. Bone density takes place in very silently but progressively.

Osteoporosis condition leads to higher bone loss (osteoblast) than the growth of new bone (osteoclast). Bones become like a honeycomb, fragile and easy to fracture. This pathological condition generally occurs due to the imbalance of hormones that are a parathyroid hormone, estrogen, and to a lesser extent of testosterone.

This condition can be prevented by proper diet and appropriate amount of protein and vitamin D.

this is a good question! i'll do some research and come back when i have the answer!

both male and female gametes are produced by meiosis of the germ cells. therefore, both male and female gametes are haploid. one male and one female gamete unite during the fertilization to form the diploid zygote. in seed bearing plants, pollen grain is the male gametophyte, which produces sperm cells.
