How does space travel affect bones?

How do astronauts overcome the negative impact of space on bones?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Question Number 1 :- In the microgravity environment of space, astronauts lose on average 1% to 2% of their bone mineral density every month. ... Just like muscles, if you don't use your bones, they will weaken. Bone loss occurs in the weightless environment of space because bones no longer have to support the body against gravity.

Question Number 2 :-

Bone loss and kidney stones are well-known as essential problems for astronauts to overcome during extended stays in space. Crew members engage in physical exercise for 2.5 hours a day, six times a week (15 hours a week) while in orbit to avoid these issues.
