, *Acclimatisation - CORRECT ANSWERS-The effects a training system forces upon the
body to compensate for the stresses of a new environment; heat and altitude training.
Action potential - CORRECT ANSWERS-The change in electrical potential associated
with the passage of an impulse along the membrane of a muscle cell or nerve cell.
Actin - CORRECT ANSWERS-The thin protein filament found in the myofibril.
*ADP (Adensosine Diphosphate) - CORRECT ANSWERS-The production of energy
results in ATP losing a phosphate which in turn results in the formation of ADP.
Aggression - CORRECT ANSWERS-Any form of behaviour that is used to harm
another individual.
All or none law - CORRECT ANSWERS-All muscle fibres will be either be contracting or
not activated at all. There is no in between action potential.
Amateurism - CORRECT ANSWERS-Participating in sport for pleasure, rather than
financial gain.
*Angular momentum - CORRECT ANSWERS-The amount of motion a body or object
has during rotation. Angular velocity x moment of inertia.
*Angular velocity - CORRECT ANSWERS-The rate of movement of the body or object
in rotation.
Anxiety - CORRECT ANSWERS-A negative side effect of stress; state and trait anxiety.
Arousal - CORRECT ANSWERS-Arousal is your level of excitement and readiness to
perform. Your performance will be best at an optimum level of arousal.
Athleticism - CORRECT ANSWERS-Combination of physical endeavour and moral
integrity. Mixing honour, truth and sportsmanship.
Atkinson and Shiffren's multi-store memory model - CORRECT ANSWERS-Human
memory has three separate components: sensory register, short-term memory and
long-term memory.
ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) - CORRECT ANSWERS-This is the energy source of
the body, as it breaks down energy is released.
*Altitude Training - CORRECT ANSWERS-A performer who exposes their body to high
altitude will cause it to acclimatise to the environment that has a lower level of oxygen
available. It results in the production of EPO which in turn stimulates the production of
more red blood cells which allows the body to deliver more oxygen to the working
muscles.
