Answer:

Regarding swimming, locomotion in the aquatic environment is a requirement to be able to perform well in this sport, thus triggering a good posture for the farthing of a large number of muscles, mainly those of the back and finally in this sport, biomechanical principles. they are important for the coordination of simultaneous movements between the legs and arms.

As for surfing, posture is essential, because it is a sport that requires a lot of balance on the board to be able to descend the wave, that is why if someone presents bad posture, bad footfall on the board and consequently poor balance (in This sport, the biomechanical principles and locomotion are also important for coordination movements, punctually at the moment when the body goes from being in a lying position on the table to standing vertically on the table).

Finally in soccer the fundamental factor is the biomechanical for coordination with the element that in this case is the ball. The locomotion is very important since it is not only a sport where it consists of a lot of locomotion but also it is locomotion with object with a specific direction.

And finally, in this sport, posture is also important for the preservation of the joints in the moments of action and reaction that football has.

Step-by-step explanation:

In biomechanics, animal locomotion is the study to know how animals move. Not all animals move, but the ability to move is widespread anywhere in the animal kingdom. Since all animals are heterotrophs, they have to obtain food from their environment. Some animals, such as sponges, are sessile and move fluid, which is through their bodies (this is known as filter feeding). Still, most animals have to move to find food, to mate, and for other needs, therefore the ability to move efficiently is essential for their survival.

Body posture is the relationship of the positions of all the joints of the body and their correlation between the position of the limbs with respect to the trunk and vice versa.
