CERTIFICATION ASSESSMENT 2026
QUESTIONS WITH SOLUTIONS GRADED A+
◉ three types of neurons
Answer: 1. interneurons= singles from one neuron to another
2. motor neurons= spinal cord or brain to other parts of the body
3. sensory neurons= body to spinal cord or brain
◉ central nervous system
Answer: brain and spinal cord
◉ peripheral nervous sytem
Answer: all the nerves in the body
◉ CNS: four major sections of the brain
Answer: 1. cerebrum= largest part of the brain (80%), left and right
hemispheres
2. diencephalons= center part of the brain
3. cerebellum= rear part of the brain
,4. brain stem= connects the cerebrum and cerebellum to the spinal
cord
◉ PNS
Answer: 1. voluntary nervous system (somatic)= signals skeletal
muscles to contract voluntary movements
2.involuntary nervous system (autonomic)= relates the contraction
of internal organs, heart rate, digestion, and breathing
◉ skeletal system
Answer: -major function= to provide form and shape to the body
-axial skeleton= skull, rib cage, vertebral column
-appendicular skeleton= upper and lower extremities
-206 bones, 177 voluntary movement
-synovial joints= 80% of joints in body
◉ muscular system
Answer: - a single muscle is built from many bundles of muscle
fibers called fascicule
◉ three types of muscle tissue
Answer: 1. cardiac= walls of the heart
2. smooth= composes the epithelial of other hollow organs
, 3. skeletal= attached to skeleton, voluntary
◉ three muscle actions
Answer: 1. concentric= muscle fibers are shortened, contractions
2. ecentric= muscles lengthen
3. isometric= tension on the muscle
◉ three types of muscle pain after workout
Answer: 1. muscle soreness
2. muscle and joint soreness= few hours after workout
3. delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS)= lasts for a few days
◉ cardiorespiratory system
Answer: -offer oxygen, protective agents, and nutrients to the tissues
of the kinetic chain (muscular, articular, neural systems)
◉ cardiovascular system three compounds
Answer: 1. heart
2. blood vessels carrying blood between heart and tissue
3. blood
◉ respiratory sytem (pulmonary system)
