2. as people age their bones become more porous, lose calcium and phosphorus and
are more likely to fracture. this condition is called:
a. osteomalacia
b. osteoma
c. osteoporosis

As people age there one become more porous due to loss of calcium and phosphate and osteoporosis.

Explanation:

Osteoporosis is a condition in which the bones become brittle and easy to break on injury which results due to the loss of calcium from the bones. Many health problems and aging can lead to the disease of osteoporosis like breast cancer, prostrate cancer, depression, rheumatoid arthritis, Sickle Cell disease, Parkinson's disease, thalassemia, and many others.

The decreased density of the bone can be detected with the help of bone density x-ray. In females osteoporosis is common after menopause in which the drop of estrogen hormone levels cause the loss of calcium absorption in the bones.

vascular tissue transports materials from the environment into the plant.

"1. it should be, it has been for about 20 years, and it's really not much different in the end than breeding animals to have particular traits. there are always concerns about genetically engineered animals/plants affecting the environment in unexpected negative ways, but i can't think of an example where the fears didn't turn out to be baseless.  

first, as you point out, it would be a great advance in pharmacology, to be able to tailor drugs and their doses to me. the pros involve better medical treatment. the cons involve privacy issues like insurance companies denying coverage to people with genetic risk factors. looking at dna markers wouldn't affect the frequency of genetic diseases, but it would allow detection of them earlier. and ok, actually i suppose that if people used this information to avoid having children with genetic diseases, some might decrease in frequency."
