Answer:

I like to read several things: newspapers, magazines, books, and poetry.

Explanation:

I used bold font where I edited the sentence. When you use the colon(:), you are about to use a list. That is exactly what happens in this sentence, so you replace the semicolon(;) which is used to join two or more ideas.

Whenever you are at the end of a list, you always add a comma(,) at the end of the last item before "and," so I put a comma there.

a rock climber climbs up the rock wall how do the bones and muscles in his arm interact to allow him to climb up. Which one

nirvana33 [79]

Answer: His arms muscles work in pairs so that one contracts while the other relaxes as he climbs up.

Explanation: when we exercise one muscle, there is usually another muscle that isn't the target of the exercise but it helps us maintain the form by doing the opposite movement. For example, when we do a bicep curl, the muscle that we are working is the biceps, and it contracts, but at the same time, the triceps relaxes, this is called antagonist muscles. The same thing happens when a rock climber climbs up the rock wall, the biceps contract as he pulls up and the triceps relax at the same time.
