    • Life science
    • Behavioral science
    Reveal answer

    Answer: Physical science

    Source evidence

    PDF page 62: Mechanics is a branch of physical science that deals with energy and forces and their effect on bodies. When researchers apply the principles of mechanics to living organisms and systems, it creates the discipline of biomechanics. Biomechanics takes the general principles of mechanics

  4. Biomechanics takes the general principles of mechanics and applies them to what?

    • Buildings
    • Living systems
    • Chemical reactions
    • Machines
    Reveal answer

    Answer: Living systems

    Source evidence
