A

Moderate intensity.

41
Q

What is ATP?

A

Adenosine Triphosphate, a high energy compound that is synthesized and stored in small quantities in muscle and other cells. The breakdown of ATP results in a release of energy that can be used to fuel muscular contraction.

42
Q

Define anaerobic?

A

WITHOUT oxygen; in cells, pertains to biochemical pathways that do not require oxygen to produce energy.

43
Q

What is aerobic?

A

WITH oxygen; in cells, pertains to biochemical pathways that does require oxygen to produce energy.

44
Q

What does a tendon connect?

A

Muscle to bone

45
Q

What does a ligament connect?

A

Bone to bone.

46
Q

Define flexibility.

A

The ability to move a joint through the full ROM.

47
Q

What is a stretch reflex?

A

Involuntary contraction of a muscle due to rapid stretching of that muscle.

48
Q

What are proprioceptors?

A

Receptors that sends feedback to the brain about positions of body parts.

49
Q

What triggers the stretch reflex?

A

Muscle spindles being stretched rapidly.

50
Q

What is the disease related to lack of exercise?

A

Hypokinetic disease.

51
Q

What are some benefits of flexibility?

A
52
Q

54
Q

Define static stretching and provide an example.

A
