A layer of smooth cartilage at their ends, which cushions the bones and prevents them from rubbing directly against one another. The whole joint is also enclosed in a synovial capsule, which is full of synovial fluid. The synovial fluid acts like the oil in an engine, lubricating the joint and preventing the cartilage from becoming worn down.

The way joints are made, they naturally should not have trouble with west and tear. The other factor is the cartilage which acts as a kind of shield for the bone and this keeps you from getting arthritis unless you are unhealthy

Describe how humans’ way of life has changed. Begin with hunter-gatherers and end with life after the Industrial Revolution.
iragen [17]

Answer:

Ever since the existence of life of humans on Earth, the humans have been making progress to understand themselves and the mother nature.

In the start, the humans were hunter- gatherers. Hunter- gatherers can be described as humans which use wild life plants and animals for food. The humans used to live in jungles and eat the wild- life plants and animals. They used leaves from the trees to cover their bodies. Heat was produced by rubbing the rocks.

After this time, the humans learned the techniques of cultivating plants for food. They started cultivating crops and depend on them for living. During this time, humans learned the art of farming and agriculture. But they couldn't understand the effects of various pathogens infecting the crops and humans at that time.

After this time, humans learned the art of preserving foods in different forms like pickles etc. They also learned that certain types of plants could be used to treat wounds and other diseases.

With the passage of time, people learned to make and use machinery for making their tasks easier. The usage of machinery progressed rapidly and the industrial revolution began. People became more diverted to this sector rather than farming. They started to move towards the cities to find better jobs in industries.

Life after industrial revolution was much easier as humans had made a lot of equipments which aid them to have a better life style. Science has been developing since that time day by day.

Water has special characteristics because of the nature of hydrogen bonds what are they?
Amanda [17]

Water has special characteristics because liquid water is denser than ice and ice floats on top of liquid water​.

Answer: Option A & D

<u>Explanation:</u>

A water molecule is formed by the covalent bonding between two atoms of Hydrogen atom with one atom of Oxygen. In water, the Hydrogen bonds are the one that keeps the water molecule intact.  

When the water molecule freezes the bonding becomes weak as they are separated and set apart which makes the liquid water denser than ice. Normally a substance floats if it is less dense. Ice floats because it is less dense than water.
