Abductors enable efficient bipedal motion by contracting parts of the gluteals that attach to the ilium and allow humans to step

miss Akunina [59]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

Since , abductions, particularly the minimus and gluteus medius , are active on the side of the leg which is in contact with the ground . This is to avoid the tendency of gravity to cause the downward motion of the hip on the opposite side . In addition, the lateral muscle and  paraspinal muscles  of the trunk are active on the side of the swinging leg to avoid the downward motion of iliac crest on side .

Why are angiosperms better able to produce offspring than other plants
AfilCa [17]
The answer to your question is flowering plants are the most recently evolved of the major groups of plants, arising only about 130 million years ago. Despite their geological youthfulness, angiosperms are the dominant plants of the world today: about 80% of all living plant species are flowering plants. Furthermore, they occupy a greater variety of habitats than any other group of plants. The ancestors of flowering plants are the gymnosperms , which are the other major group of plants that produce seeds. The gymnosperms, however, produce their seeds on the surface of leaf-like structures, which makes the seeds vulnerable to mechanical damage when winds whip the branches back and forth, and to drying out. Most importantly, conifer seeds are vulnerable to insects and other animals, which view seeds as nutritious, energy packed treats. In angiosperms, the margins of the seed-bearing leaves have become inrolled and fused, so the seeds are no longer exposed but are more safely tucked inside the newly evolved "vessel," which is the ovary.

The other major advance of the angiosperms over the gymnosperms was the evolution of the flower, which is the structure responsible for sexual reproduction in these plants. The function of sexual reproduction is to bring together genetic material from two individuals of differing ancestry, so that the offspring will have a new genetic makeup.
