The two muscles of mastication that that are involved in closing of the mandible are the masseter and pterygoid muscles.

Actually, three muscles that work together are involved in movement of the mandible: Temporalis, Masseter and Pterygoid Muscles.

Temporalis muscle - assists in closing the mouth and moving the mouth from side to side during the chewing.

Masseter muscle- the main chewing muscle and one of the strongest muscles in the body.

Pterygoid muscles- with the Masseter muscle to assist in  the chewing action and jaw rotation.

BARSIC [14]

Correct answer: D). Tides

The tidal force is generated by the combination of gravitational attraction between the earth, moon and the sun and the rotation of Earth-sun and the earth-moon system. The tides rise and fall on the ocean surfaces. The moon has a large effect on the generation of the tides than the Sun.

Thus, the correct answer would be option D.

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Water and temperature

Explanation:

Water and temperature are the two most important factors that regulate the distribution of organisms in terrestrial habitats. Water is required for survival by living beings. The availability of water is limited in many habitats such as desert habitats. In such land habitats with water scarcity, the organisms adapted to withstand the limited water availability are found.

Likewise, temperature also affects the distribution of organisms in terrestrial habitats. The presence of temperature conditions below and above the tolerance range of the organisms restricts their geographical distribution. Temperature regulates the enzyme kinetics. Metabolic pathways are catalyzed by enzymes that function under optimal temperature conditions only. Water serves as a medium for metabolic reactions and also regulates body temperature.
