AND ANSWERS | VERIFIED AND WELL DETAILED ANSWERS |
LATEST EXAM UPDATE
sliding-filament theory - CORRECT ANSWER - Actin filaments at each end of
the sarcomere slide inward on myosin filaments, pulling the z-lines toward the
center of the sarcomere and thus contracting the muscle fiber.
motor unit - CORRECT ANSWER - a motor neuron and the muscle fibers it
innervates
proprioceptors - CORRECT ANSWER - specialized sensory receptors that
provide the central nervous system w/ information needed to maintain muscle tone
and perform complex coordinated movements.
bodily awareness of kinesthetics
muscle fiber types and uses - CORRECT ANSWER - type I = slow twitch
type IIa = fast twitch; muscular endurance -> middle distance runner
type IIb = fast twitch; explosive and powerful
role of nutritionist - CORRECT ANSWER - personalized nutritional counseling
dietary analysis of food records
nutritional education
referral and treatment of eating disorders
,micronutrient - CORRECT ANSWER - nutrients required by the body that it
cannot produce itself
macronutrient - CORRECT ANSWER - nutrients that are required in significant
amounts in the diet.
3 classes:
proteins
carbohydrates
lipids (fats)
vitamin - CORRECT ANSWER - organic substance that cannot be synthesized
by the body
mineral - CORRECT ANSWER - the chemical elements required by living
organisms other than the 4 elements carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen that

ingestion that includes one of the following:
a vitamin

, a dietary substance for use by humans to supplement the diet by increasing total
dietary intake
cori cycle (definition) - CORRECT ANSWER - lactate is transported in the blood
to the live where it is converted into glucose
krebs cycle (definition) - CORRECT ANSWER - takes place in mitochondria. A
series of reactions that continue the oxidation of the substrate begun in glycosis.
It's a way we can continue to produce energy.
Minimal essential strain (MES) - CORRECT ANSWER - the threshold stimulus
that initiates new bone formation
approx. 1/10 of the force required to fracture bone
Resting oxygen uptake (MET) - CORRECT ANSWER - estimated at 3.5 mL of
oxygen/kg of BW/min. (mL * kg ^-1 * min. ^ -1)
systolic blood pressure - CORRECT ANSWER - the pressure exerted against the
arterial walls as blood is forcefully ejected during ventricular contraction.
diastolic blood pressure - CORRECT ANSWER - the pressure exerted against the
arterial walls when no blood is being forcefully ejected through the vessels
five food groups - CORRECT ANSWER - grains
vegetables
fruits
dairy
