Answer: b. The radius forms the point of the elbow

c. The radius articulates to the wrist closest to the thumb

Explanation:

Ulna and radius are the two bones of the forearm. These bones articulates with the humerus and carpels of the hand.

b. The radius forms the point of the elbow: The elbow joint is the hinge joint that forms between the proximal ends of the radius and ulna in the forearm and distal ends of the humerus. The radius forms a pointed end.

c. The radius articulates to the wrist closest to the thumb: The wrist forms a complex joint. It forms a transition between the hand and the forearm. The radial deviation in the wrist forms the basis for the movement of the tilting of the wrist joint towards the thumb.

Answer:

Axis - B

Rotation - E

Revolution - D

Latitude - A

Gravity - C

Explanation:

The axis is the line that a body spins on. The axis will line up with the north and south poles. For Earth, the axis is tilted, which is why seasons exist.

The definition of rotation is "the action of rotating around an axis or center." So, rotation is the spinning of a body on its axis. On Earth, one rotation is equal to one day.

Revolutions are when a body spins around another. For Earth, one revolution around the sun is one year

Latitudes are invisible lines that separate the world into degrees from North to South. They are also called parallels.

Gravity is the force that keeps things together. Large masses have gravity that attract other masses.

When muscle tissue is exercising under anaerobic conditions, the production of ______ is important because it ensures a continuo

MatroZZZ [7]

Given what we know about the biological mechanisms behind anaerobic exercise, we can confirm that the production of lactate ensures a continuous supply of NAD.

In order for us to undergo any physical exercise, it is imperative that we are able to produce energy within our cells. The energy used by cells is in the form of a molecule by the name of ATP, which is produced primarily through a process known as <em>Glycolysis</em>.

This is relevant given that in order for glycolysis to happen, a key protein is required known as NAD+. Lactate is produced from pyruvate only under anaerobic conditions because these are conditions that lack oxygen which is the only other source of NAD+, therefore, pyruvate must be converted to lactic acid to make it possible to continue glycolysis and the production of ATP.
