Bending our knees both contracts the hamstrings and extends the quads. This build up in tension is stored energy, when the muscles reverse, it releases that energy through our feet into the ground, propelling us upward.
Bending the knees before jumping allows the leg muscles to generate more power and store potential energy, which can then be released quickly to propel the body higher into the air. The bending and straightening of the knees help produce a more explosive jump and maximize the height achieved.
When you make a curtsy, you bend both knees while keeping your back straight. The movement is a sign of respect or deference, typically performed by women by lowering the body briefly.
When lifting heavy objects, you should bend your knees and keep your back straight to use your leg muscles instead of your back. Hold the object close to your body and lift with your legs rather than your back to avoid injury. Make sure to ask for help if the object is too heavy to lift on your own.
When lifting a heavy object, you should stoop down to the object while keeping your back straight. Bending over the object can put strain on your lower back and increase the risk of injury. Make sure to bend at your hips and knees to lift with proper form.
Bending your knees when picking up an object helps to maintain a straight back and reduces strain on your lower back muscles. Keeping your back straight and using your leg muscles to lift the object can help prevent injuries and promote good posture.
The Arrival and District 9 both feature aliens whose knees bend backwards, but in real life, camelids fron knees bend forward, and rear knees bend backwards

You have to bend your knees so your weight shifts forward and gives the hit more power.
They're not really called knees, but yes, they are on the front legs, they bend like our knees, and the back legs bend like our elbows. :) hope i helped

They need to have knees to walk. And to swim. And occasionally to bend down and drink.
When squatting, your knees should not bend past a 90-degree angle to prevent strain and injury.
Yes, the knees of dwarfs bend just like those of individuals of typical height. Being a dwarf does not affect the structure or function of major joints like the knees.
