300

Name all the regions of the vertebral column

Cervical

Thoracic

Lumbar

Sacrum

Coccyx

300

what muscle is located in the chest

pectoralis major

300

Explain the importance/purpose of using a ParQ

Provide information about any known medical conditions and lifestyle choice and to create a suitable, safe exercise programme

300

How does blood doping increase performance

More oxygen is delivered to the working muscles, allowing performer to train for longer, increasing performance

300

What are 2 reasons why you need to cool down

Aids removal of lactic acid and carbon dioxide

lowers heart rate and breathing rate 

improves flexibility

helps avoid dizziness due to blood pooling in the lower limbs

400

Name all 4 classifications of bones and give examples

Short bone - carpals

Flat bone - cranium

Long bone - humerus

Irregular bone - vertebrea


400

What muscle contracts and relaxes during plantar flexion at the ankle and name whether they are the antagonist or agonst


gastrocnemius contracts and is the agonist

Tibialis anterior relaxes and is the antagonist

400

Name 2 advantages and disadvantages of 12 minute cooper test

Advantages: Large group can be tested, simple test to complete

Disadvantages: Need to access to facilities, keeping track of lap numbers can be difficult

400

Explain why blood doping might lead to infection

Blood doping inolves injecting another persons blood into the perfomers blood therefore as the blood is not the performer's own they could contract an infection

400

What are the  4 different types of injuries 

Abrassions

Concussions

Fractures

Sprains

Muscle tears

Dislocation

500
State the movements possible at each joint type and give a sporting example

Hinge joint - flexion and extension - kicking a football

Ball and socket - flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, rotation, - swimming butterfly

Pivot joint - rotation - turning head to breathe in swimming

Condyloid - flexion, extension, adduction, abduction - follow through of hands in netball shot

500

What are the adaptations of slow twitch and fast twitch muscle fibres and where are they used in sport

Fast twitch - less myglobin/oxygen, contract quickly, low resistance to fatigue

100m sprint

Slow twitch: contain more myglobin/oxygen, contract slowly, high resistance to fatigue

Marathon run

500

What type of training would games player do and give the advantages & disadvantages

Fartlektraining 

Advantages: not boring, can be done anywhere

Disadvantages: self motivation, difficult to measure progress

500

Explain why a peptide hormone would be more likely taken by a long distance runner than a sprinter

Peptide hormones increase red blood cell count which means long distance runners can carry more oxygen. This means they can maintain a higher pace for longer as o2 is used to release energy aerobically. Sprinters do not rely on o2 to complete their race as they respire anareobically so this hormone is not needed.  

500

Explain 1 prevention method that a performer could use when completing a ploymetric programme without injury

The performer could wear protective clothing and footwear relevant to her exercises such as anklet support. This can allow her to perform agile and powerful movements whilst her ankle remains supported to prevent injuries such as a sprain
