Final answer:

When a jet turbine seizes suddenly, it is designed to fly apart rather than transfer angular momentum to the plane's wing.

Step-by-step explanation:

When a jet turbine seizes suddenly, it is designed to fly apart rather than transfer angular momentum to the plane's wing. This is because transferring the angular momentum to the wing could potentially tear it off. Instead, the turbine is designed with blades that are able to break away and disintegrate, effectively conserving angular momentum without causing damage to the wing.
