Why is the ulna less movable than the radius?

Biology
1 answer:
vaieri [72.5K]2 years ago
6 0
Ulna is less moveable than radius because it has a hinge joint with the humerus in the process of olecranon. This joint only enable you to extend or flex the lower hand but not rotation. This cause it becomes more stable and less prone to subluxation. Radius joint with the metacarpophalangeal bones in the hand is also a loose one that allows rotation movement.

What are the structures in the leaves that are unutilized in transpiration? ( pls hurry)
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

Stomata – Stomata are pores in the leaf that allow gas exchange where water vapor leaves the plant and carbon dioxide enters. Special cells called guard cells control each pore's opening or closing. When stomata are open, transpiration rates increase; when they are closed, transpiration rates decrease.
