Can you think of any sports where bone mass or bone mineral density might be higher in one limb compared to the same limb on the opposite side of the body? Why would this happen?

Answer:

I would say volleyball or any other high impact sport.

Step-by-step explanation:

Any exercise that places force on a bone will strengthen the bone. A lot of strain happens in the legs of a volleyball player, an example of somethng that would eventually increase bone densiy in the lower half of your body is jumping.
