Why is it important that the outside surface of a plane is smooth?
For it to glide through the air.
What Convex and concave rule of the joint?
When a concave surface is moving the roll and the glide occur in the same direction and that when a convex surface is moving the roll and glide are opposite. Here's an example: If the tibia moves on the femur since it is a concave surface it is said the glide is anterior only; however, is the motion is closed chain and the femur is moving on a stationary tibia then the femur which is a convex surface glides posterior and rolls anterior on the tibia's plateau. hope this helps!
What are the adaptations for water strider?
Water striders have adaptations such as hydrophobic hairs on their legs that trap air, allowing them to float on water's surface tension. Their long legs help distribute their weight and prevent them from breaking the water's surface. Additionally, their bodies are streamlined and lightweight, enabling them to glide effortlessly on the water's surface and capture prey.

What are examples of glide reflections?
Examples of glide reflections include sliding a shape along a line while also reflecting it across that line. For instance, sliding and reflecting a triangle across a mirror line simultaneously creates a glide reflection. Another example could involve sliding and reflecting a letter along a surface, resulting in a glide reflection transformation.
What is a glide reflection?
