Elastic mechanisms in animals

ID: elastic-mechanisms-in-animals

Elastic mechanisms in animals refer to biological systems that utilize elastic materials or structures to store and release energy. These mechanisms are crucial for a variety of functions, including movement, locomotion, and the efficient use of energy during physical activities. Here are some key points about elastic mechanisms in animals: 1. **Tendons and Muscles**: Many animals have tendons that act elastically. When a muscle contracts, it can stretch the tendon, which stores potential energy.
