Ornithologists talk about a bird's furculum which absorbs the shock of wing motion and helps birds breathe while they fly. What do the rest of us call it?

What is Born Oppenheimer Principle?
This is an approximation that is based on the fact that the electron is more than 1000 times lighter than the nucleus of the atom. It allows you to model the motion of electrons as being completely independent of the motion of nuclei because the motion of the nuclei is much much slower than that of electrons. For instance, when an molecule absorbs light such that its electronic configuration changes, that happens essentially immediately. Then the nuclei will move accordingly (either shortening or lengthening bond lengths for instance).
What are types of motion?
Linear Motion, reciprocating motion, rotary motion, and oscillating motion
The apparent westward movement of a planet is known as?
retrograde motion
Newton's laws of motion are all about what?
Newton's laws of motion are about motion.
The movement of particles?
Brownian motion is the random moving and mixing of particles.
Why is the liquid from the joints important?
Because it absorbs the impact of the motion of your joints
What do you breathe when you breathe out?
Humans breathe out carbon dioxide, the whole world runs in a motion, for example plants breathe carbon dioxide, we breathe in oxygen. Even fish breathe oxygen. They take the oxygen out of the water. So we breathe in what plants breathe out and plants breathe in what we breathe out.
Which may be true for a substance that absorbs energy?
The energy decreases the molecular motion and the kinetic energy of the substance.
What increases the volume of the chest when it contracts?
the lungs push against your chest when you breathe causing an almost flexing motion
How does a hammerhead shark breathe?
Sharks are fish, and virtually all fish breathe through the use of gills. These are the collection of slit-like openings on the sides of fish, located behind the head. Behind the gills are networks of complex capillaries. These networks of tiny blood vessels withdraw oxygen from the water as it passes over them.Swimming and BreathingMost species of shark breathe by swimming, using the forward motion to pass water over their gills. These sharks must be in constant forward motion, or they will suffocate. This is why dead sharks are frequently found in fishing drift or anti-shark nets. Once entangled in the net, the shark is unable to breathe and cannot free itself in the limited amount of time it has before "drowning.
How is the procedure of a motion?
Sit on a toilet, puff and blow and heave until you are red in the face, then breathe a sigh of relief, stand up, wipe your backside, pull your keks up and exit the room, not forgetting to flush the offending article away! Voila, a motion!
How does rubber moorings in a building help minimize damage during an earthquake?
Because rubber is flexible - so it absorbs a lot of the motion of the earth during a quake. Rubber moorings act as a kind of barrier between the building and the earth.
What muscles do lizards use to breathe?
Lizards breathe in the same way as all vertebrates do, via lungs. However, while in motion, reptiles cannot breathe in the same manner that humans do. This is because their spines (backbones) move from side to side, instead of up and down. We refer to this respiratory system of reptiles as mediolateral undulation, as compared to humans whose spinal movement during motion is called dorsoventral undulation.

How does motion relates to the three laws of motion?
Motion is already involves in motion because the motion is motion
What are the some examples of motion?
Some examples of motion are-random motion,periodic motion,rotatory motion,circular motion and osclitory motion
What are types of motion?
Linear Motion, reciprocating motion, rotary motion, and oscillating motion
