A pun on the laws passed by Congress under the "elastic clause" (Article I, section 8) and a freestyle/salsa band based out of New York.
A cat's claws are retractable due to an elastic ligament and tendon in their paw that allows the claws to extend and retract as needed. When a cat is resting or walking, their claws are retracted to prevent them from getting damaged or becoming blunt. The ability to retract their claws also helps cats maintain stealth and agility while hunting or climbing.
Cats have retractable claws, meaning they can extend them for climbing, jumping, or hunting and retract them for protection or grooming. Retractable claws help keep their nails sharp and reduce wear and tear when not in use, which is especially useful for hunting.
Dogs main use of their claws is for traction when running, so there would be a disadvantage to them in having retractable claws. When compared with cats, dogs generally use their very strong jaws and teeth as the main tool, and do not use their claws or paws to grab hold of prey. Dogs usually hunt as packs, so they can surround their prey, rather than one animal having to hold the prey still while it is killed. Cheetahs do not retract their claws, but their speed is very important for catching prey, so the extra traction gained is at the sacrifice of very sharp holding claws.
Most cats have five claws on each of their front paws, and four on each of the rear paws, for a total of 18 claws. Some cats have more toes and claws, the total number can vary from one to many extras. These cats are called "polydactyl."

Kittens' claws are always out because they use them for climbing, hunting, and self-defense. Their claws are retractable, meaning they can extend and retract them as needed.

Yes, momentum is conserved in an elastic collision, meaning the total momentum of the system before the collision is equal to the total momentum after the collision.
It is a protein that is stretchable during dissolutions.
Rubber bands, springs, and bungee cords are examples of materials that exhibit elastic behavior, meaning they can deform under stress and return to their original shape once the stress is removed.
The elastic modulus is a measure of a material's stiffness. It quantifies how much a material will deform under stress. A higher elastic modulus indicates a stiffer material, meaning it will deform less when subjected to a force.
x is elastic to y: when y changes, x tends to change a lot with it. x is inelastic to y: when y changes, x does not change much with it.
Gold has a high elastic limit, meaning it can be deformed significantly before permanent deformation occurs. Under normal conditions, gold can be stretched to about 20-30% of its original length before it reaches its elastic limit and starts to deform permanently.
Yes, kinetic energy is conserved in an elastic collision, meaning the total kinetic energy before the collision is equal to the total kinetic energy after the collision.
