What is Muscular Strength?
The muscle's ability to apply force and overcome resistance.

What typically happens to muscle temperature during a warm up?


Remains constant




Increases




Decreases

Bone marrow

200


Which of the following functions of the cardiovascular system occurs in the veins?




Diffusion of gases




Carrying blood away from the heart




Carrying blood towards the heart

Capillarisation




Cardiac hypertrophy




Cardiac output

The main functions of the skeletal system

  1. Movement 
  2. Support 
  3. Protection 
  4. Mineral storage 
  5. Stuctural shape 
300

Which formula is correct for cardiac output?


Stroke volume × heart rate

300

A few seconds 

300
Why does body composition matter in some sports? Give me a specific sporting example where body composition matters.
In some sports you will not be able to participate or win without the correct body composition. Sumo wrestling, horse racing, basketball, etc.

What is the maximum heart rate of a 16-year-old person?

204

400

what happens in aerobic respiratory system during exercise?

Glucose + oxygen → energy + water + carbon dioxide

400
Give me three specific sporting examples where you use flexibility. Name the sport, the joint in the body, and the specific moment in the sport where flexibility comes into play.
For example, when getting tackled in lacrosse, you must be flexible at the shoulder joint in order to allow your body to go with the tackle and prevent injury.

Why is a person less likely to strain a muscle if they have warmed up before taking part in exercise?

Warming up increases the temperature of the muscles which makes them more pliable and therefore more likely to stretch rather than tear.

Functions of the cardiovascular system 4

  1. deliver oxygen and nutrients to the body
  2. remove the waste products such as carbon dioxide and lactic acid
  3. protection against disease and infection
  4. maintain body temperature

What is the difference between static and dynamic balance and give me an example of each.
Static = balancing while standing still Dynamic = balancing while moving or changing shape
