Locomotor action: - answer any task that involves the body to be no stationary/moving
(Running, Crawling, Jumping)
Non-locomotor action: - answer Any task that involves the body to be in-place/stationary
(twisting)
Manipulative action: - answer Any task that involves applying/receiving force on a
object. (Catching, throwing, hitting, pushing, ect.)
Open motor skill - answer these motor skills occur in an unpredictable and changing
environment (wrestling, catching a fly ball, etc.)
Closed motor skill - answerThese motor skills occur in an predictable and nonchanging
environment (baseball throw, golf swing, football kick-off etc.)
Fine Motor skills - answerThese motor skills occur during the use of small muscles
(writing, gripping, releasing, etc.)
Gross Motor skills - answerThese motor skills occur during the use of large muscles
(swinging, jumping, running)
What condition dealing with muscle tone might children with cerebral palsy have? -
answerHypertonia
What condition dealing with muscle tone might children with Down syndrome have? -
answerHypotonia
Motor cortex - answerThe part of the cerebral cortex in the brain where the nerve
impulses originate that initiate voluntary muscular activity.
psychomotor learning - answerThe relationship between cognitive functions and
physical movement.
motor development - answerThe development of action and coordination of ones limbs,
as well as the development of strength, posture control, balance and perceptual skills
proprioception - answersense of self in space; sense of your body's location, orientation,
positioning, and movements
Newton's First Law - answerNewton object stays at rest unless acted upon
, Newton's Second Law - answerNewton heavier objects require more force to move.
Force=Mass X Acceleration
Newton's Third Law - answerFor every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
Motor Learning - answerrepeated practice of motor control processes, which lead to a
change in the ability to produce complex movements.
Cardiopulmonary System - answerHeart and Oxygen
Skeletal System - answerStructural Framework of body
Bones interact with muscles to allow movement
Lymphatic System - answerRetrieves fluids that leak from the capillaries and contains
the white blood cells.
Supports immune system
Digestive System - answerBreaks down foods into proteins, sugars, amino acids, and
other building blocks
Endocrine System - answerSecretes hormones that regulate the body's growth,
metabolism, and general functionality
Type 1 muscle fibers - answerslow twitch, red fibers due to increased mitochondria and
myoglobin concentration (increased oxidative phosphorylation) --> sustained contraction
Type 2 muscle fibers - answer"fast twitch"; white (glycolitic); fatigue more quickly, but
useful for energy bursts (sprints)
Stroke Volume (SV) - answerThe amount of blood pumped out of bot ventricles in the
heart with each contraction.
cardiac output - answerstroke volume x heart rate
Heart Rate (HR) - answerThe rate at which the heart pumps per minute
Maximum Heart Rate (Equation) - answer220-Age = MHR
Fitness Plan Guidelines - answerFITT (frequency, intensity, time, type)
concurrent feedback - answerfeedback received during the performance of a skill
extrinsic feedback - answerReceived from outside of the performer, eg from a coach.
