Question 7 • Biology - SC3209 IC

Kyle explains that the body of an airplane is like the appendicular skeleton and the wings of an airplane are like the axial skeleton. Which demonstrates how he could change his statement so it is accurate?

Answer
A
Airplanes are not like skeletons.
B
The body of an airplane is like the axial skeleton, and the wings are like the appendicular skeleton.
C
The body of an airplane is like the appendicular skeleton, and the tail is like the axial skeleton.
D
Both the body and wings of an airplane are like the axial skeleton.

Explanation

The axial skeleton forms the body’s central framework, including the skull, spine, and rib cage. The appendicular skeleton consists of the limbs and the structures that attach them to the body. So the airplane’s body is like the axial skeleton, while its wings are like the appendicular skeleton; this matches choice B.
