Study Guide Questions And Answers Rated
A+.




List 8 health benefits associated with regular participation in physical activity. - correct
answer. Lower risk of coronary heart disease, lower risk of high blood pressure, lower
risk of Type 2 diabetes, lower risk of breast cancer, reduced depression, improved
cardiorespiraratory & muscular fitness, lower risk of colon cancer, prevention of weight
gain.

How can interval training improve aerobic performance? - correct answer. Maximizes
aerobic power and minimizes boredom.

List 3 physiological adaptations that occur to improve exercise performance and state
how or why improvements occurs. - correct answer. 1. Increased maximal blood flow -
Performing aerobic exercise forces large volumes of blood which increases stroke
volume.
2. Increased oxygen delivery and carbon dioxide removal - The cardiorespiratory
system saturates blood coming from the lungs with oxygen efficiently. The high
pulmonary ventilation assists with the removal of carbon dioxide during exercise.
3. Increased maximal oxygen uptake and aerobic power - Regular aerobic exercise
causes an increase in the number of capillaries per muscle fiber.

Energy Is....
Its food source..... - correct answer. Energy is the ability to do work and the source of
energy is the sun.

ATP - correct answer. Adenosine Triphosphate ATP.
Compound that releases energy necessary. for muscular contraction.

,1 mole ATP = 1/10 mile energy walk.

Energy Pathways - correct answer. Anaerobic and Aerobic

An anaerobic pathway consists of: - correct answer. ATP-CP - phosphagen system.
Fuel source = CHEMICAL creatine phosphate.

Intensity = very high.

Duration = very short 1 to15 seconds.

Activities = sprinting, jumping, throwing, kicking, lifting heavy weights.

An anaerobic pathway also consist of - correct answer. LACTIC ACID SYSTEM

Fuel source = GLUCOSE carbohydrate only.


Intensity = high, moderate.

Duration = short, medium 45-90 seconds.

Activities = prolonged sprints, soccer, basketball, hockey, swimming, cycling.

aerobic pathway consists of: - correct answer. AEROBIC SYSTEM

Fuel source = Carbohydrates, fat, protein.

Intensity = moderate, low.

Duration = medium, very long 3-5 minutes

Activities = sitting, reading, studying, watching TV, internet surfing, sleeping, walking,
biking, rowing, skating, distance running, aerobics.

Define:
Aerobic - correct answer. Aerobic is with oxygen or the presence of oxygen.

Define:
Anaerobic - correct answer. Anaerobic is without oxygen; usually w/short-spurt, high-
energy activities

Steady state: - correct answer. After first 3-4 minutes of exercise, oxygen uptake has
reached an adequate level to meet oxygen demand of the tissues; heart rate, cardio
output, and pulmonary ventilation have attained fairly constant levels.

, Excess post-oxygen consumption EPOC - correct answer. Oxygen debt referring to
oxygen uptake remaining elevated above resting levels for several minutes during
recovery.

Oxygen deficit - correct answer. Period in which the level of oxygen consumption is
below what is necessary to supply ATP production.

Anaerobic threshold - correct answer. Point at which the body can no longer meet its
demand for oxygen and anaerobic metabolism is accelerated.

Aerobic capacity - correct answer. Ability of the body to remove oxygen from the air
and transfer it through the lungs and blood to the working muscles; related to
cardiorespiratory endurance.

Lactic acid - correct answer. By-product of anaerobic metabolism of glucose; milk
sugar.

Stroke volume - correct answer. Volume of blood ejected by each ventricle of the
heart during a single systole.

Cardiac output - correct answer. Volume of blood pumped by each ventricle in one
minute.

Venous return - correct answer. Pumping action of the muscles in extremities and
respiratory system along with venoconstriction to move oxygen blood back to the heart.

Blood pooling - correct answer. Condition caused by ceasing vigorous exercise too
abruptly so that blood remains in the extremities and may not be delivered quickly
enough to the heart and brain.

Vital capacity - correct answer. Greatest volume of air that can be forcibly exhaled
after the deepest inspiration.

Valsalva maneuver - correct answer. Dangerous condition that can occur if an
individual holds their breath forming an unequal pressure in the brain. Dizziness,
temporary loss of consciousness may occur.

Blood pressure norms - correct answer. Resting Blood Pressure under

High Blood Pressure +

Anatomical Term
Joint - correct answer. Where two or more bones meet and movement occurs

Anatomical Term
Ligament - correct answer. Fibrous tissues that connects bone-to-bone
