NUR 6130 EXAM 2 2026 WILLIAM PATERSON
UNIVERSITY FULL QUESTIONS AND 100%
CORRECT ANSWERS GRADED A+
◉ Benefits of PA: Prevents and Manages Chronic Diseases. Answer:
Chronic low grade inflammation negitavely effects nearly all organ
systems of the body
Repeated exposure reduces chronic low grade inflammation
Regulates immune system with acute and chronic PA
CVD
Hypertension
Dyslipidema
Type II Diabetes
Cancer
Obesity
Arthritis
Neurodegenerative disease
◉ Benefits of PA: Improves brain health and function. Answer:
Cognitive performance
Prevents and manages depression and anxiety
Improves sleep
Manages migraines
,◉ Benefits of PA: Optimize body composition. Answer: Can contribute
to weight loss
Useful to prevent and manage obesity
Central distribution of fat is more significant than overall body weight
Reduces waist circumference with and without weight loss
◉ Benefits of PA: Improves Tissue Health. Answer: Tissues adapt to
optimal loading
Strengthens ligaments, cartilage, bone, muscle, discs
Builds tissue capacity to prevent injury, optimizes recovery and prevent
reinjury
Prevents and manages osteoporosis
◉ Benefits of PA: Promotes successful aging. Answer: Preserve
function, independence and QOL
Reduce risk of falls and fall related injury
Have more energy: stimulates mitochondria activity
Confidence
◉ A healthy 24 hours includes. Answer: 150 mins/ week mod-vig PA
Muscle strengthening at least 2x/week using major muscle groups (max
benefits <60mins)
, Several hours LPA
7-9hrs (18-64yrs) 7-8 hrs (65+yrs) good quality, regular/consistent sleep
Less than 8 hours sedentary (above this mortality increases rapidly
Less than 3 hours screen time
◉ PA Definition. Answer: Any bodily movement produced by the
contraction of muscles that increases energy expenditure above a resting
level
◉ Exercise Definition. Answer: PA that is planned, structured, repetitive
and performed with the goal of improving components of health or
fitness
◉ MPA Met level. Answer: 3-6 Mets
◉ VPA Met level. Answer: More than 6
Causes greater reduction of all cause mortality
◉ PA Risks: Thermal. Answer: Illness that occurs when exercising
during conditions of high environmental stress
Heat related: high temp and humidity
Cold related: extreme cold temp, windchill, moisture
Some conditions impair thermoregulation, inadequate preparation for
conditions
