Answer:

The correct answer is: A. Hinge.

Explanation:

  • A Hinge joint can be defined as the joint between two bones where the rounded surface for articulation or attachment  of one bone is integrated or fitted into the concave surface for articulation or attachment of another bone.
  • The two bones get attached in such a way that they are capable of moving in only a single plane.
  • They are capable of undergoing two types of movements which are Flexion and Extension.
  • Flexion can be defined as a type of movement where the angle between the two bones which are articulated at the hinge joint decreases.
  • Extension can be defined as a type of movement where the angle between the two bones which are articulated at the hinge joint increases.
  • An example of a Hinge joint is the Elbow Joint, where the distal terminal of the humerus bone located in the upper arm is articulated to the proximal terminal of the radius and ulna bones located in the forearm.

How are primary and secondary succession similar?
anzhelika [568]

Answer;

B. Both primary and secondary succession involve ecosystems recovering from a disruptive event.

Explanation;

-Primary succession occurs following an opening of a pristine habitat, for example, a lava flow, an area left from retreated glacier, or abandoned strip mine. In contrast, secondary succession is a response to a disturbance, for example, forest fire, tsunami, flood, or an abandoned field.

-Primary succession begins in barren areas, such as on bare rock exposed by a retreating glacier. Secondary succession follows a major disturbance, such as a fire or a flood.
