Answer:
The correct answer is: C) has ligaments present inside as well as surrounding the articular capsule.
Explanation:
<u>The knee joint is a hinge (ginglymus) type synovial joint</u> that is formed by three different bones: the femur, the tibia, and the patella.
Given the nature of the hinge joint, it should only allow flexion and extension, but it also grants a small degree of internal and external rotation. For this reason, the knee joint cannot be considered a multiaxial joint, since it only fully moves in one axis and slightly moves in a second one (this is why most people consider the knee joint a uniaxial joint, but some others say it is actually a <u>biaxial one</u>).
The knee joint isn't completely enclosed by a strong articular capsule. The knee joint is rather thin and it contains the patella, menisci, bursae, and ligaments of the knee.
The knee is not the simplest joint in the body. It is formed by three bones and there's also the menisci, which are fibrocartilaginous structures that help increase the stability of the joint and act as shock absorbers as well.
The knee does have ligaments both inside and outside the articular capsule. The intracapsular ligaments are two cruciate ligaments (one anterior and one posterior), which hold the tibia in place; the transverse ligament that connects both menisci; and the posterior and anterior meniscofemoral ligaments. The extracapsular ligaments are the patellar ligaments (connects the patella to the tibia), the two collateral ligaments (medial and fibular, one on each side of the knee, connecting the femur to the tibia and to the fibula, respectively), and the anterolateral ligament.

Viruses are <u>non - living things</u> that can only survive and reproduce by infecting living cells.
<u>Host</u> is an organism that shelters and nourishes others.

Answer:
Cellulose-digesting microorganisms live in the guts of termites and ruminant mammals. the microorganisms have a home and food, and their hosts gain more nutrition from their meals. this relationship is an example of mutualism.
Explanation:
Mutualism encompasses the ecological relationships between individuals of different species, in which both gets benefits and improve their biological functions. It usually occurs between species that have different nutritional and living requirements.
An example of this is also the nitrogen fixing bacteria (Rhizobia) and the legimunous plants, and the relationship between the Acacia and the Acacia ants.
It is respiration because all living things do it and have to do it because they have to make energy to survive. After all, respiring is just a reaction that makes energy to go into cells, doesn't matter if it's a plant or jellyfish or whatever.
