CARDIOVASCULAR

1 . Cardiac Output is the volume of blood pumped by each ventricle in one minute T 2 . Stroke volume is the volume of blood in the extremities F

3 . Vital Capacity is the greatest volume of air that can be forcibly expired in one breath T

4 . The Valsalva Maneuver can increase blood pressure to extremely high and dangerous levels . T

5 . An Artery is a blood vessel that carries blood away from the heart to the body T

6 . Systolic pressure is the vascular pressure created during the

br contraction of the left ventricle T

7 . Diastolic pressure is the vascular pressure created during the pulmonary resting phase T

8 . Arteriosclerosis the hardening and obstruction of the exterior arterial wall F

9 . Caffeine has the effect of stimulating the cardiovascular response T

10 . Hyperventilation is characterized by slow and shallow breathing F 11 . Raising the arms overhead during exercise increases the heart rate F 12 . Abruptly stopping intense exercise causes blood to pool in the lower extremities T

13 . The two anatomical sites for checking heart rate are the carotid artery and posterior wrist F 14 . Aerobic exercise increases cardiovascular output T 15 . Resting Heart Rate (RHR ) is determined immediately before exercise T

PHYSIOLOGY

16 . Anaerobic exercise utilizes oxygen for energy production F 17 . Aerobic exercise can utilize carbohydrate , protein and fat for energy production T

18 . Muscles require Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP ) for both aerobic and anaerobic activity T

19 . Anaerobic exercise can utilize only carbohydrates for energy production T

20 . Anaerobic energy production provides high power for a short duration T

21 . Aerobic energy production provides low to moderate power for a long duration T

22 . Anaerobic Threshold is the point at which aerobic oxygen demands exceed capability T

23 . Aerobic Capacity is the ability of the body to process carbohydrates for exercise F 24 . Lactic acid and heat are the by-products of aerobic exercise F

25 . Carbon dioxide , heat and water are the by-products of aerobic exercise T

26 . Glycogen is a form of glucose stored in the muscles and liver for exercise T

27 . Triglycerides are a form of fatty acids stored in adipose tissue for energy T

28 . Glucose is a simple sugar carried in the blood for long-term energy T

29 . Fast twitch muscles are for explosive type movements and are easily fatigued T

30 . Slow twitch muscles are for high power type activities T

KINESIOLOGY

31 . Tendons connect bone to bone F

32 . Ligaments attach muscle to bone F

33 . An inflamed tendon is called tendonitis T

34 . The Frontal plane divides the body from front to back T

35 . The Sagittal plane divides the body from front to back F

36 . The Horizontal plane divides the body from upper to lower T

37 . Anterior refers to the anatomical rear F

38 . The Prone position refers to face down T

39 . Isometric contraction means constant tension with no increase in muscle length F

40 . Isotonic contraction means constant muscle tension at a varying...
