Plate knocked over: drawer for it? (6,9)
I believe the answer is:
animal magnetism
'it?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'plate knocked over drawer' is the wordplay.
'plate' becomes 'lamina' (anatomical term for a plate or layer).
'knocked over' says the letters should be written backwards.
'drawer' becomes 'magnetism' (magnets draw or attract things).
'lamina' reversed gives 'animal'.
'animal'+'magnetism'='ANIMAL MAGNETISM'
'for' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for animal magnetism that I've seen before include "Physical attractiveness" , "Zoo attraction" , "Sexual attraction" , "Polar bears might exert such a pull" .)
