Answer:

C. The insertion is where a muscle attaches to the bone it wants to move

Explanation:

Skeletal muscles produce the movement by exerting force on tendons which in turn pull on the bones. Tendons are the connective tissues that serve to attach muscles to the bones. Muscle attachment site on bones are called as origin and insertion. Origin is the attachment site of muscles's tendon to the bone which is not in moving position. Other tendons of the muscle become attached to a movable bone; this attachment site is called as insertion.

Water can "defy gravity" and climb uphill? True or false. Why or why not
harina [27]
The answer is actually <u>true</u><u>.</u>

The starting point of all rivers is higher than their end point. However, under the right conditions, small amounts of water can be drawn upwards, against the tug of gravity, through a phenomenon known as "capillary action". For this to occur, however, the water must be confined into a small flow space.

Hope this helps!  If it does, would you mind marking my answer as Brainliest? Thanks :D

How could the tomato plants response to being eaten by a hornworm caterpillar be described as a function of homeostasis
sesenic [268]

Answer:

First, it's important to get clear on the meaning of Homeostasis.

In simple terms, it refers to the capacity of a living thing (plant or animal) to react or behave in such a way that enables it to continue to survive irrespective of changes in its immediate environment.

       

Explanation:

In humans, the body has a system which reacts to the external stimuli of temprature. When the weather is hot, the brain through a sequence of electrical and chemical signals tells the skin to open up the pore, then we experience venting of sweating which cools the body and regulates internal heat. This is an instance of homeostasis.

This does not mean that the plant or animal is completely immune to such external changes.

In the case of the tomato plant, the hair on the leaves and stem of the plant is an example of Homeostatic responses which have evolved over the years to discourage predators such as the hornworm caterpillar from defoliating the plant.

Cheers!
