(T/F) - Precise Answer ✔✔False
About 98% of the human body is composed of only six elements: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen,
nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorous. (T/F) - Precise Answer ✔✔True
The respiratory system is responsible for: - Precise Answer ✔✔- Supplying oxygen to the body

and passive structures involved
An isometric contraction is when: - Precise Answer ✔✔A muscle does not lengthen or shorten
as it contracts
True synergy occurs when a muscle contracts to stop the secondary action of another muscle.
(T/F) - Precise Answer ✔✔True
An example of an antagonist muscle is: - Precise Answer ✔✔Triceps during a biceps curl
Adduction is a movement of a body part away from the midline of the body. (T/F) - Precise
Answer ✔✔False
