There is no difference in the water heated by microwaves compared to water heated by another source (like a gas flame, or electric element). Microwaves are non-ionizing radiation, so do not alter the substance other than exciting it to higher temperatures.. Below is a Science fair project presented by a girl in a secondary school in Sussex. In it she took filtered water and divided it into two parts. The first part she heated to boiling in a pan on the stove, and the second part she heated to boiling in a microwave.
An avulsion fracture is an injury to the bone in a location where a tendon or ligament attaches to the bone. When an avulsion fracture occurs, the tendon or ligament pulls off a piece of the bone.
