storchak [24]

Answer:

Multiaxial joint

Explanation:

Joint is understood as the set of structures that allow the union of two or more bones and / or cartilage with each other. The synovial joint is a union that is established between bones that have different articular surfaces. There are factors that determine the axes of space in which a joint can be mobilized, in such a way that uniaxial, biaxial or multiaxial joints are identified. The multiaxial joint is movements in around three axes or three degrees of freedom. These joints can perform any movement. This movement that is carried out in the three axes is called circumduction movement (in a circle). The movements that a synovial joint can carry out are sliding, extension, flexion, abduction, adduction, medial rotation, lateral rotation, circumduction, protrusion, retrusion, diduction, pronation, supination, inversion, eversion, among others.

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

Processing and storing food.

Explanation:

The coelom is the hollow structure formed in the organisms filled with the coelom fluid. The coelom is formed during embryogenesis which may be lined by the mesodermal layer or not.

The formation of coelom serves many functions in different organisms like it allows the internal movement of the organs in the body, allows the independent movement of the digestive tract, the fluid present in the cavity acts as a hydrostatic skeleton in the lower organism and cushions the internal organs.

The function that is not performed by the coelom is that it is not involved in the processing and storing food in organisms.

Thus, Processing and storing food is correct.
