Question

osteoporosis results from. increased estrogen production estrogen decline increased osteoblast activity increased osteocyte activity decreased parathyroid hormone level drag and drop the correct answers into the boxes. you can also click the correct answer, then the box where it should go. reset n answers.

Explanation:

Osteoporosis is often linked to a decline in estrogen levels, especially in post - menopausal women. Estrogen helps maintain bone density by regulating osteoclast and osteoblast activity. When estrogen declines, bone - resorbing activity may increase relative to bone - building activity. Increased estrogen production would have a protective effect on bones, not cause osteoporosis. Increased osteoblast activity would lead to more bone formation and is not a cause of osteoporosis. Increased osteocyte activity is not typically associated with the development of osteoporosis. A decreased parathyroid hormone level would not cause osteoporosis; rather, abnormal parathyroid function (e.g., hyperparathyroidism) can contribute to bone loss.

Answer:

estrogen decline
