Which of the following is NOT a way that models can be useful?
AlekseyPX

A way in which models cannot be useful is: B). being a perfect representation of a situation.

<h3>What is a model?</h3>

A model can be defined as the creation of a physical object either from kits, components or other applicable materials that are acquired by the builder, so as to simulate a phenomenon or process.

This ultimately implies that, a model should be probabilistic in nature rather than being perfect, so as to effectively illustrate or describe the relationship that is existing between an independent variable and the dependent variable.

Generally, some of the ways in which models cannot be useful include the following:

  • Building intuition for situations.
  • Making predictions that can be verified.

In conclusion, we can infer and logically deduce that way in which models cannot be useful is being a perfect representation of a situation.

If our muscles didn’t generate opposing forces, in what specific ways would that limit us?
shusha [124]

If muscles did not generate opposing forces, then the contraction and relaxation of muscles leading to movement will be limited.

Explanation:

Basically skeletal muscles work in pairs of agonist and antagonist muscles which work together but with opposing forces to contract and relax respectively. These opposing forces help to facilitate movement. Like in a bicep curl, the biceps work as agonist and triceps work as antagonist. The muscular strength is the force that acts against the opposing force of muscles. This strength is regardless of age, sex, weight or size of an individual.
