HPEX 310 Final Exam Review
Benefits of Flexibility correct answersIncreased join mobility, efficient body
movement, and good posture
Limits of Flexibility correct answersThe shape of the bones, a stiff muscle,
connective tissue, tendons, or tight skin
Contributors of Lower Back Pain correct answersPoor lower back lumbar
flexibility, poor hamstring flexibility, poor gluteal flexibility, poor strength of
the anterior and lateral abdominals, poor flexibility of the back extensor
muscles
Good Posture correct answersThe result of holding positions that place
the least amount of strain on the supporting muscles and ligaments
around your joints
Stretch Reflex correct answersInvoluntary contraction of a muscle
due to rapid stretching of that muscle
Hypokinetic Disease correct answersDisease associated with a lack
of exercise
Dynamic Stretching correct answersStretching that involves moving the
joints through the full range of motion to mimic a movement used in a
sport or exercise
Ballistic Stretching correct answersType of stretch that involves sudden
and forceful bouncing to stretch the muscles
Static Stretching correct answersStretching that slowly lengthens a
muscle to a point where further movement is limited
Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation correct answersSeries of
movements combining stretching with alternating contraction and
relaxation of muscles
Fat Soluble Vitamins correct answersVitamins A, D, E, and K, stored in the
body fat and can therefore accumulate in body tissue
Water Soluble Vitamins correct answersInclude B and C vitamins, not stored
in the body and are eliminated by the kidneys
Major Minerals correct answersMinerals needed in higher amounts
Minor/Trace Minerals correct answersMinerals needed in very small
quantities
, Nutrients correct answersSubstances in food that are necessary for survival
and health
Saturated Fatty Acid correct answersSolid at room temperature, found in
both animal and plant sources; diets high in saturated fatty acids have
been shown to lead to heart disease
Unsaturated Fatty Acid correct answersFats found in plants and are liquid at
room temperature; they do not lead to higher cholesterol levels and do not
increase the risk of heart disease
Calories per gram of Fat correct
answers9 Calories per gram of Protein
correct answers4
Calories per gram of Carbohydrate
correct answers4
Water and its Function correct answersMakes up 60-70% of total body
weight and is important for numerous functions including temperature
regulation, digestion, nutrient absorption, blood formation, and waste
elimination
Essential Amino Acid correct answers9 amino acids that cannot be
manufactured by the body and must be consumed in the diet
Nonessential Amino Acid correct answers11 amino acids that the body can
make and are not necessary in the diet
Protein and its Function correct answersform a major part of lean tissue,
totaling 17- 20% of body weight, they serve as a structural unit to build
and repair body tissues
Complete Protein correct answersProteins containing all the essential
amino acids
Incomplete Protein correct answersProteins that are missing one or
more of the essential amino acids
Carbohydrate correct answersMacronutrient that is a key energy
source
Starch correct answersLong chains of glucose units; found in foods
such as corn, grains, and potatoes
Micronutrient correct answersVitamins and minerals; involved in many body
processes, including regulating cell function
Macronutrient correct answersCarbohydrates, fats, protein, and water;
necessary for building and maintaining body tissues and providing energy
Lipid correct answersCompounds that do not readily dissolve in water
