Chapter 4 - The biomechanics of human bone growth and development. This chapter explain how the material constituents and structural organization of bone affect its ability to withstand mechanical loads; describe the processes involved in the normal growth and maturation of bone; describe the effects of exercise and of weightlessness on bone mineralization; explain the significance of osteoporosis and discuss current theories on its prevention; explain the relationship between different forms of
