100

This system transports blood from the heart to the body's tissues then back to the heart

What is Systemic Circulation?

100

The enzyme responsible for the conversion of creatine phosphate to ATP

What is Creatine Kinase?

100

The 2 primary myofilaments responsible for cross-bridge cycling

What are Actin and Myosin?

100

The health-related components of physical fitness include body composition, muscular strength, flexibility, cardiorespiratory fitness, and this

What is Muscular Endurance?

100

The muscles of the rotator cuff include the supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor, and this muscle

What is the Subscapularis?

200

The major blood vessel that carries blood from the right side of the heart to the lungs

What is the Pulmonary Artery?

200

The series of proteins in the electron transport chain is located in this part of the mitochondria

What is the Inner Mitochondrial Membrane?

200

This type of contraction occurs when a muscle fiber lengthens and can produce greater amounts of force compared to the other types of contraction

What is Eccentric?

200

This measurement technique requires the use of calipers at varying sites of the body to estimate body fat

What is Skinfold?

200

The joint actions of this muscle are internal rotation, flexion, and, primarily, horizontal adduction of the shoulder

What is the Pectoralis Major?

300

This term is the product of the volume of blood pumped per beat and the number of beats per minute

What is Cardiac Output?

300

The term that describes the balance between fat to carbohydrate metabolism during exercise, specifically the shift in predominant substrate with increases in exercise intensity

What is the Crossover Concept?

300

The muscle architecture type of muscles like the gastrocnemius and the rectus femoris

What is Bipennate?

300

This health screening tool relies on the individual's current exercise participant; history and symptoms of CV, metabolic, or renal disease; and desired exercise intensity to determine if medical clearance is necessary

What is the ACSM Prescreening Algorithm?

300

The bony landmark that serves as the insertion point for the patellar tendon

What is the Tibial Tuberosity?

400

The "pacemaker" of the heart

What is the Sinoatrial Node?

400

This will be at a higher intensity in trained individuals since their muscles have a higher oxidative capacity to remove lactate

What is Lactate Threshold?

400

This principle describes how muscle fibers are progressively recruited to increase the amount of force produced by the muscle

What is the Size Principle?

400

This sign/symptom describes difficulty breathing when laying in the recumbent position, which is resolved by sitting up or standing

What is Orthopnea?

400

This cord-like ligament in the knee prevents translation of the tibia behind the femur and is most commonly injured due to knee hyperextension

What is the Posterior Cruciate Ligament?

500

This term describes how heart rate is able to increase initially up to 100 bpm

What is Parasympathetic Withdrawal?

500

The term for the delay in oxygen demands being met for the first 2 to 3 minutes of exercise

What is Oxygen Deficit?

500

This muscle fiber type is least resistant to fatigue, has the largest diameter, and has a low concentration of surrounding capillaries

What is Type IIx or Fast Glycolytic?

500

This technique is used to determine VO2max during graded exercise testing by measuring expired air

What is Indirect Calorimetry?

500

This carpal bone lays under the 5th metacarpal and has a distinct "hook" that helps form the carpal tunnel

What is the Hamate?
