Which kinematic consequence results when cheetahs pursue nimble prey?

💡 Explanation

Cheetahs in high-speed pursuit require rapid acceleration, resulting in increased reliance on stride frequency, rather than stride length, which elevates their center of mass. This reduces stability; therefore, turning radius is limited because the higher CoM reduces maneuverability, rather than optimizing respiration.
