Answer:

the very long river

Explanation:

Larger rocks tend to settle out of the water flow sooner than smaller rocks do, so the rocks remaining at the end of a very long river would tend to be very small. A very short river may still be carrying somewhat larger rocks.

The very long river probably drops the smallest rock pieces near the ocean.

_____

Perhaps the implied assumption here is that a very short river will have a higher gradient than a very long river. Another assumption is that rocks are picked up nearer the headwaters, and the gradient decreases with distance.

If both rivers end at a waterfall into the ocean, they may very well carry the same sort of rock size distribution. If the short river traverses muddy terrain, and the longer river traverses rocky terrain, the answer may be reversed.

I NEED HELP The measure of how resistant a solid is to shape change when a force is applied.

enyata [817]

Hardness is a measure of how resistant solid matter is to various kinds of permanent shape change when a force is applied Macroscopic hardness is generally characterized by strong intermolecular bonds, but the behavior of solid materials under force is complex; therefore, there are different measurements of hardness: scratch hardness, indentation hardness, and rebound hardness. Hardness is dependent on ductility, elastic stiffness, plasticity, strain, strength, toughness, viscoelasticity, and viscosity. Common examples of hard matter are ceramics, concrete, certain metals, and super hard materials, which can be contrasted with soft matter.

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

1. Muscle Fibers

2. Bones

3. Joints

Explanation:

Muscle tissue is made of muscle fibers. The plasma membrane of a muscle fiber is called sarcolemma while its cytoplasm is known as sarcoplasm. Muscle cells are characterized by the presence of specialized endoplasmic reticulum which is called sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Muscle cells exhibit contractility and extensibility. The ability of muscle cells to shorten their length forcibly in response to a stimulus is their contractility. Muscle fibers have the ability to extend and shorten themselves.

Extension and contraction of muscle fibers are responsible for the movement of the human body and its parts.

Muscles are attached to bones via tendons which in turn are the fibrous connective tissues. Muscles are also part of our joints where they assist in the movement by pulling the bones as well as stabilize and strengthen the joints.
