How would the world have to look different if people did not have knees? How would your lives be different?

a world with out knees would be anoying because you wouldn’t be able to get up from siting. and every one would walking with there legs completly strait. if you’d drive a car won’t be able stop.
With out knees we cant walk the stairs up or down. But if stairs became slides we coud just slide down. We can drive a car by using buttins instead of peddles. We can get up by taking turns for example if Lesley sat down and Noa was waiting then when Lesley wants to get up Noa will help her. Then it could be the other way around.
If we didn’t have knees we wouldn’t be able to run, walk, skip, or jog. We wouldn’t be able to get up from the carpet. We wouldn’t be able to sit on the toilet. We wouldn’t be able to drive cause you can’t reach the peadle. We wouldn’t be able to sit down on a chair or sit in a funny style on a chair. We wouldn’t be able to bend down to pick something up off the groud. We wouldn’t be able to jump up and jump down. We wouldn’t be able to cuddle in our bed. We wouldn’t be able to swing our legs back and forth. We would be able to get in and out of the car because we got to bend our knees to get out. We wouldn’t be able to dance. My dog wouldn’t get smacked in the butt so much if he humps is bed.
If their was a world without knees all chairs would have to have places to put your legs, cars would have to have the pedals on the car wall not on the floor, their would have to be a button to press so you could get up off of the floor, stairs would have to be like a slide to slide down and the only way to climb up would have to be by an elevator, latter’s would only have to have one step on the bottom with a crank on the side to turn to make the step move up, and you would have to walk like a penguin.
A world without knees would be ehhhhhhhhhh would be weird.People would not be able to walk,dance,run or even drive to well which would be baaaaaaaad because they would not be able to stop thier cars.Do you know what that can cause?I know that you know what it can cause but I will just remmind you what it can cause. A bbbbbbbaaaaaaad accident.It will be ocworddddddddddddddddd and also scary.Will in my point of view.
I think the world would be very different if we didnt have knees we wouldnt have stais or lots of other things like toilets and chairs they would need to be made differently We also wouldnt be able to run around on the playground very easily. Or drive a car or bike and other vehicles. Many things we do involve our knees!!!
I defiently agree with chanel ewwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!! If we didnt have knees, earth will be a very weird planet. We could’nt go down the stairs, we could’nt run, hop, jump and so much more. But we can go to the bathroom but very acwardly(you dont want to know)!!!!! We could do stuff but, its not the end of the world but everybody would get a little shorter. Well you could still eat, drink play and sleep. Its not like your dying.
I think that the world would be very different if we didn’t have knees. For one thing, we couldn’t play soccer, kickball, and it would be really hard to get up and down stairs. Also, it would be hard to go to the bathroom or even sit. It would be really hard to get up also.
Our lives would be different because we could not bend our legs.We coudn’t sit in a chair or in a car with our legs bent. We would have to sit with our legs straight. If they sit on a sofa they must put there legs up. It would be hard to get in bed. Everyone will have to walk straight, and everyone will not be able to do certain types of activities.
If we had know nees we would not be aple to sit on chairs we would not be able to sit on chairs,dance run, jump,climp,drive because we had know nees. It would be hard to do things we would always have to be straight alway. we would not be able to go to the bathroom we would not be able to couldle in to our beds dogs would not be able to jump into our beds dogs wold not be able to sleep.every thing wold be biuld differntely. Be would not be aple to swing or move our feet and hands back and fourth. we wold not be able to climp on our beds our go on stairs we wold have to slide down in stead of stairs.We wold have to have long chairs instead of short chairs.It would be very hard with out nees
There are some wonderful responses up here. You are doing some great thinking. I’m proud of you!
Some of you have suggested that if there were no knees, we would not be able to go up and down stairs or drive cars. Here’s something to think about:
If we had no knees, would there even BE stairs? Would a person have invented something that people couldn’t use? Or would somebody have invented something ELSE to help us get from one level to another? (Would we even build things with more than one level?)
Cars are the same idea. I like Elliot’s idea about having buttons instead of pedals, so let’s take it a step further. Do you think cars would be look the same if people didn’t have knees? I doubt it. How would we sit? If we still had cars, I bet they’d look COMPLETELY different. What do you think they would look like?
How would sports be different? Furniture? What else….?
A world without knees would make earth really,really wierd. You wouldn’t be able to go play, hop, jump,go down the stairs,drive cars, and many other things. You could go to the bathroom but in really wierd way. You could do things but few things. If you don’t have knees it’s totally not end of the world and like you would be dying. But you really need your knees and most of the things do involve the knees.
I think if we did not have neens. We would be at home almost evey day. Because we could not get up we would die. Because we would have no food. Soon we would run out of suplies. Because we would have no car.
the world will be very different because you play any running games. You cant get out of bed and lots and lots of other things you cant do with out knees
A world with out knees would be really strange.One reason is that you would n’t be able to go down the stairs properly because if you do you would have to hop mostly.Another one is because if you sit you would have to fall backwards, and when you do have knees you sit down gently on the chair. You wouldn’t be able to hang upside down from a bar because you have to bend your knees. When I imagine myself with out knees I think I would feel wierd because I would walk like a penguine side to side.Just talking about this makes me think that maybe penguines don’t have knees.All this thinking makes me want to say ewwwwwwwwwwwww because if you don’t have knees it might look flat and disgustingggggggggg.I hope every single person in the world would have knees because it will be much more easy in our lives.We wouldn’t be able to do lots of fun sports becase you have to run mist of the time and if your runnig you have to bend your knees.That is why I think evryone in th world should have kneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees!
I think that the world might have cube cars because it would make it much easyer to drive. and we would have ramps instead of stairs.I also think we would have extended chairs so we could sit easyer.
If we didn’t have knees we could have exdended chairs to make it easyer to sit. And we could have cars with a keyboard so you could have an easyer time driving. farmers insted of beanding down to milk a cow they could lay down on a skate board and roll under the cow.
Without knees our whole life would be very strange it will be so hard to drive the peddles would have to be on the sides and you would have to strech your legs to reach them, if we hall it would be very difficult to get up, and we would have a hard time walking side to side, we couldnt play sports well like basketball, soccer, laccrose, and football. We would also have make our furniture different, we also coudnt swim very well or make underwater discoveries like fish or old treasures, also to hunt grow food and get food and water.it will be very hard to live are lives.
I think a world without knees would be very strange because you wouldn’t be able to ride your bike or sit on the toilet or dance,play basket ball or basball,run,play duck duck goose,drive ,get of of the carprt,bend down or pet mt dog cubbie. we would use a ramp and to start the car we use buttens.
The world would be really hard if we didn’t have knees. It would be hard because we couldn’t do things we could do with legs. For example we couldn’t walk, run, play tag, do sports and other things. The world would look different because nobody could drive and there wouldn’t be Global Warming. The world would be very complicated for most of the people since they don’t have the ability to walk.
The world would look different because we are not used to looking at people without knees. It would look pretty silly. We would walk like a giraffe and a robot. Cars would have to be built differently. The cars would be taller and we would have to stand up to drive. The gas and brake pedals would be on the steering wheel. Playing sports like soccer, basketball and football would be difficult because you wouldn’t be able to run. The only way you would be able to play is if you ride a motor bike or a motor scooter. You would have to eat and drink standing up. Now I realize how hard it would be to have no knees.
Mr.Sklar it would be wierd if no one had knees because they can’t go to the bathroom, but if they do need to go that would be strange because they don’t have any knees. Playing will not be fun because most of the games we do is using our knees. Also when you pray in church we use our knees to kneel. IAM GLAD THAT I HAVE KNEES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A world with out any knees. You can’t play any sports. The reason that you can’t play any sports is that you need your knees.
If people didn’t have knees, they wouldn’t be able to do as much as they can now. They wouldn’t be able to do sports. But if people really didn’t have knees, there would be a certain kind of transportation.I agree with Lesley. Even if you don’t have knees, you can still do other things because scientists will invent specific things for kneeless people. It’s not like you’re dying. You should be thankfiul that you have knees. I will be scared if I wake up and I don’t have knees, but I know that people will invent things tthat I can use. Hey, Neil, good question to ask!!
