CBSE Class: 6 NCERT Science Chapter: 8 free notes | extra questions | in-text questions | BODY MOVEMENTS | Part I
ANSWER:
In the body, places where two parts are seemed to be joined together, which are able to move, bend or rotate, are known as joints.
ANSWER:
- ball and socket joints
- pivotal joints
- hinge joints
- fixed joints
The rounded end of one bone that fits into the cavity (which is a hollow space) of the other bone, and also allowing movements in all directions, are known as ball and socket joints.
A cylindrical bone that rotates while being in a ring type of bone, such joints are known as pivotal joints.
What are hinge joints?

What are muscles?
ANSWER:
The swollen region inside different body parts surrounding around them, that helps the bones to move and works in pairs by pulling each other, such is known as muscles.
How do muscles movement help our bones to move? explain.
ANSWER:
The muscles in our body helps us to move by the following reasons,
- they work in pairs, only by pulling
- they bulge (becomes smaller in the length) due to contractionAs when one of them (the muscles) contracts, bone is pulled in that direction, while other muscles tend to relax.
- to move the bones in other directions, the relaxed muscle contracts to pull the bone towards its original said position, while the other relax
- Thus, the said two muscles have to work together to move a bone in order to initiate movement.
What is the body structure of an earthworm?
ANSWER:
The body structure of an earthworm can be defined below,
- are said to be made up of many rings joined together
- it doesn’t have bones
- secretes a slimy structure, that makes it feel slimy upon touch.
- has large number of tiny bristles (that are hair like structures) projecting out under it’s body
How are earthworms able to move?
ANSWER:
The earthworms are able to move
- they have muscles which help in extending and shortening the body for its movement
- also, secretes a slimy structure that helps in the body movement.
- They extend the front part of the body, while keeping the rear portion fixed on the ground.
- then it fixes the front and thus releases the rear end, as it shortens the body and pulls rear part out making it move forward by small distances
- Thus repeating such muscle expansions and contractions, it moves through the soil.
How do earthworms fix their body?
ANSWER:
The earthworms fix their body by
- the large number of bristles (that are hair like structures) under their body projecting out, that are connected with their muscles
- this helps in getting a good grip on the ground
How does an earthworm receives nutrition?
ANSWER:
The earthworms receive nutrients by eating the soil, and later throws the undigested and waste parts.
How does an earthworm plays an important role in the growth of plants?
ANSWER:
Earthworms play an important role in the growth of plants by eating its way through the soil and later throws the undigested part of what it eats, such activities of it helps making the soil more useful for plants.
What is the body structure of a snail like?
ANSWER:
The body structure of a snail can be defined below,
- has a round structure, shell, that it carries on its back all the time
- also the outer skeleton, is not made up of bones
- has a thick structure of foot, made of strong muscles and head
