Answer:

a. shorten

Explanation:

Inability or failure for joints to move through their entire range of motion is caused by constrictions. These constrictions often results when the excess adipose tissues that surrounds the muscles and ligaments are not in required adequate proportion. These constrictions can be caused by ageing, fatigue, muscular diseases etc. As a result of these constriction in the joints, let say for example, the knee joint, the muscle and ligaments tends to shorten in length.

How much of your DNA comes from your mother? How much from your father?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Genetically, you actually carry more of your mother's genes than your father's. That's because of little organelles that live within your cells, the mitochondria, which you only receive from your mother.

While women do inherit 50% of their DNA from each parent, men inherit about 51% from their mother and only 49% from their father.
