Study Notes
Alveoli Function
- Alveoli are critical for gas exchange but do not transfer all substances; option B is excluded.
Power Test Explanation
- The standing long jump effectively measures power, exemplifying explosive strength; choice A represents the best explanation.
Skill Development
- Skill development is essential in sports, with the brain managing actions through learned motor skills, emphasizing the importance of training.
Exercise Principle of Progression
- Continuous running for three miles daily over 10 weeks does not exemplify the principle of progression; marked as false because it lacks variation.
Mental Commitment in Sports
- Mental commitment is crucial for athlete performance under stress. It involves focus on objectives with four key components: concentration, confidence, control, and commitment.
Workout Routine and Overload Principle
- To incorporate the overload principle, gradually increase the workout intensity:
- Week 1: Run 1 mile at 10 min/mile.
- Week 2: Run 1.2 miles at 10 min/mile.
- Week 3: Run 1.5 miles at 9.5 min/mile.
- Alternative: Increase weight lifted weekly (e.g., 50lbs to 60lbs).
Skill-Related Fitness Influences
- One influence on skill-related fitness cannot be modified for improvement; option A indicates an unchangeable factor.
Healthy Diet Characteristics
- An aspect that does not characterize a healthy diet is identified as option C.
Anaerobic Exercise
- Weight lifting is categorized under anaerobic exercise, contributing to muscle development and strength.
Hypertension Outcomes
- Potential results of hypertension are noted in option A, highlighting health risks.
Anaerobic vs. Aerobic Exercises
- Both exercise types are vital: anaerobic focuses on muscle mass and strength while aerobic enhances endurance and cardio fitness.
Larynx Significance
- The larynx, or voice box, enables speech and provides protection to the trachea, reinforcing its biological significance.
Healthy Blood Pressure Levels
- Healthy blood pressure is defined by option C, establishing a baseline for cardiovascular health.
Reaction Time
- The duration taken to respond to a stimulus is referred to as reaction time; represented by blank in the statement.
Cardiovascular System Structure
- The cardiovascular system is a one-way transport system for blood, ensuring efficient circulation throughout the body.
