The maximum energy that a bone can absorb without breaking depends on its characteristics, such as its cross-sectional area and its elasticity. for healthy human leg bones of approximately 6.0cm2 cross-sectional area, this energy has been experimentally measured to be about 200 j. (a) from approximately what maximum height could a 60-kg person jump and land rigidly upright on both feet without breaking his legs? (b) you are probably surprised at how small the answer to part (a) is. people obviously jump from much greater heights without breaking their legs. how can that be? what else absorbs the energy when they jump from greater heights? (how did the person in part (a) land? how do people normally land when they jump from greater heights? ) (c) in light of your answers to parts (a) and (b), what might be some of the reasons that older people are much more prone than younger ones to bone fractures from simple falls (such as a fall in the shower)?

name and explain one of the event that occurs during meiosis that increases the variation in offspring even more than simple reproduction?

answer: grassland biomes are closer to the equator and receive more rain.

grasslands are biomes that are dominated by grasses rather shrubs and trees. savanna are biomes that exhibit grasses, shrubs and small tree as vegetation. grasslands are located near the equator of the earth. these are found in north america. savanna biomes are found in africa, south america, australia and india. grassland exhibit moderate climatic conditions, it receives   amount of rainfall higher than savanna.   therefore, savanna exhibit dry and hot climatic conditions.
