Explanation

Osteoporosis is characterized by reduced bone mass and changes in the chemical composition of the bone matrix. Estrogen deficiency contributes to its development, and bone resorption surpasses bone formation. It is also commonly seen in older adults. Therefore, the statement claiming no change in the bone matrix's chemical composition is incorrect.
