The answer is the first one: joint stiffness.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Joint stiffness: As people age, the collagen in their joints undergoes changes that can lead to a decrease in elasticity and an increase in stiffness. This is a common effect of aging on the joints, making this option correct.

  2. Inflammation and pain: While aging can contribute to joint pain and inflammation, these symptoms are more directly associated with conditions like arthritis rather than changes in collagen alone. Therefore, this option is not the most accurate answer to the question.

  3. Increased flexibility: Aging typically results in decreased flexibility due to changes in collagen and other factors affecting the joints. Increased flexibility is not a common result of aging, making this option incorrect.

In summary, the changes in collagen in joints due to aging most commonly result in joint stiffness.

NASA had developed a completely new kind of rocket that could send the craft fro planet to planet the four planets were approximately aligned on one side of the Sun and we used th gravity of each planet to speed up the spacecraft to get to the next one in its path the spacecraft stopped off to collect fuel on the satellites of each planet before proceeding to the next one we used laser beams to propel the spacecraft into the outer solar system, where sunlight is dim you can't fool me, no spacecraft has ever explored four different planets Question 5 1 pts The first spacecraft which did not merely fly by a jovian (or giant) planet, but actually went into orbit around it for an extended period of time was
