Predict Question 1: What effect will the saline injections have on the control rats vertebral bone density? Your answer : a. The saline injections will increase the rats vertebral bone density (indicated by a less-negative T score). Predict Question 2: What effect will the estrogen injections have on the estrogen-treated rats vertebral bone density? Your answer : a. The estrogen injections will increase the rats vertebral bone density (indicated by a less-negative T score).
Predict Question 3: What effect will the calcitonin injections have on the calcitonin-treated rats vertebral bone density? Your answer : a. The calcitonin injections will increase the rats vertebral bone density (indicated by a less-negative T score).
