Incisors (front teeth) act as wedges in the human body. Which change would increase the mechanical advantage of incisors?
1 a decrease in the distance of the teeth from the fulcrum,
2 an increase in the distance of the teeth from the fulcrum,
3 an increase in the thickness at the widest part of the teeth and no change in the length of the teeth,
4 an increase in the length of the teeth and no change in the thickness at the widest part of the teeth

Respuesta :

To increase the mechanical advantage of incisors (front teeth) so that they act as wedges in the human body is through 2. an increase in the distance of the teeth from the fulcrum.

 

The decrease in the distance will decrease the mechanical advantage of incisors. The increase in the thickness at the widest part of the teeth will not necessarily support the incisors to become more effective wedges.  

 

Thus, incisors will acquire some mechanical advantage by increasing the force that it exerts. This advantage can be achieved by increasing the distance of incisors from the fulcrum.
