<span>A partially movable joint is a joint in which its movement is limited to a certain amount. They are usually supported by a layer of cartilages and fibrous connective tissues. They are also called amphiarthrosis joints. Example of this are the joints formed by adjacent vertebrae containing intervertebral disc of a cartilage. When the joints are moved, it limits its  movement because of this arrangement. Other examples of this are the ribs and the sternum. Notice that you cannot twist your upper body at 360 degrees without moving your lower body.</span>

Name 2 forces acting on an object at rest Only need 1 got gravity
mote1985 [20]

You mean like a box sitting on a table.

One force is the force of gravity, pulling downward on the box.

Now, you know that the forces acting on the box must be balanced, because
if they're not, then the box would be accelerating.  But it's just sitting there, so
there must be some other force, just exactly the right strength and direction to
exactly cancel the force of gravity on the box, so that the net force on it is zero.

The other force is the force of the table pushing upward on the box.  It's called
the "normal force".

I NEED HELP ASAP!!! 100 points if you answer these 7 questions:
netineya [11]

Answer:

#1. B. Alfred Wegener

#2. C. Volcanic activity at the ocean bottom.

#3. B, C. Continental, Sea floor (oceanic).

#4. B. Folding

#5. B. Tectonics

#6. C. Point underground where the earthquake starts

#7. C. Flood waters carrying away soil

Explanation:

#1. Alfred Lothar Wegener was a German polar researcher, geophysicist and meteorologist. During his lifetime he was primarily known for his achievements in meteorology and as a pioneer of polar research, and is also known as the father of plate tectonics.

#2. The most prominent feature of ocean topography discovered in the 1960s was: Volcanic activity at the ocean bottom. The continents have always been in their current positions.

#3. Tectonic plates are composed of oceanic lithosphere and thicker continental lithosphere, each topped by its own kind of crust. The two types of tectonic plates are continental and oceanic tectonic plates.

#4. Tremendous pushing forces exerted by two of Earth's plates moving together squeezed rock layers from opposite sides. This caused the rock layers to buckle and fold, forming folded mountains. Folded mountains are mountains formed by the folding of rock layers caused by compression forces.

#5. Plate tectonics is the scientific theory explaining the movement of the earth's crust. It is widely accepted by scientists today. Recall that both continental landmasses and the ocean floor are part of the earth's crust, and that the crust is broken into individual pieces called tectonic plates.

#6. The hypocenter is the point within the earth where an earthquake rupture starts. The epicenter is the point directly above it at the surface of the Earth. Also commonly termed the focus. See also epicenter.

#7. This process is known as erosion. In earth science, erosion is the action of surface processes that removes soil, rock, or dissolved material from one location on the Earth's crust, and then transports it to another location.

Hope this helps!

Have a nice day!
