, NUR155 EXAM 3 QUESTIONS NEWEST 2024-2025 ACTUAL EXAM COMPLETE 100 QUESTIONS AND
CORRECT DETAILED ANSWERS
Isotonic exercise - (answer) Active movement with constant muscle contraction (walking)
Isometric exercise - (answer) Tensing a muscle and holding it for a short time, followed by complete
relaxation of the muscle (kegel exercises)
Aerobic exercise - (answer) Have oxygen metabolism to give us energy, constant moving
Anaerobic exercise - (answer) Intense physical activity that requires little oxygen but uses short bursts
of energy (lifting weights)
Positioning devices - (answer) - Pillow
