4The skeleton is made up of bone [blank_start]tissues[blank_end] and cartilage - these consist of [blank_start]living[blank_end] cells. [blank_start]Blood[blank_end] brings nutrients and oxygen to these cells like any other. Bone is continually [blank_start]broken down[blank_end] and rebuilt. [blank_start]Weight[blank_end]-bearing exercises [blank_start]stimulate[blank_end] bone growth, whilst inactivity makes [blank_start]bone[blank_end] weak and less [blank_start]dense[blank_end].

5Bone is tissue that can contract and relax to cause movement.
- ATrue
- BFalse
6Ligaments are...
- Astrong, fibrous, elastic connective tissues that connect bones to each other in a joint.
- Bstrong, fibrous, flexible connective tissue that joins muscles to bone.
7When muscles contract, they get [blank_start]shorter[blank_end]. Muscles are attached to bones by [blank_start]tendons[blank_end], so when the muscle contracts, it [blank_start]pulls[blank_end] on the bone and so enabling movement [blank_start]of[blank_end] the bone is part of a joint. Muscles can only cause bones to move by [blank_start]contracting[blank_end]. This means that a muscle can only move a bone in one [blank_start]direction[blank_end] so muscles work in [blank_start]antagonistic[blank_end] pairs - one muscle contracts while the other [blank_start]relaxes[blank_end]. To move in the [blank_start]opposite[blank_end] way, the relaxed muscle contracts while the contracted muscle relaxes.

8Label the diagram of a joint, and match the part of the joint to its definition.
- ACartilage
- BSynovial Fluid (diagram)
- CSynovial Fluid

9What is arthritis?
- AWhen core body temperature falls too low.
- BWhen cartilage wears down at the ends of bones in a joint grind together when it is moved.
- CA separation of two bones where they meet at a joint.
10Which joints only allow backwards and forwards movement?
- AHinge joints
- BBall and socket joints
- CFixed joints
- DPivot joints
11What type of joint allows bones to rotate around each other by 360 degrees?
- ABall and socket joint
- BPivot joint
- CHinge joint
- DFixed joint
12A fixed joint is held together by rough fibres, and they are several bones fused together to form a rigid structure.
- ATrue
- BFalse
13Before starting a new exercise programme, it is important to find out the following things:
Current symptoms - eg pain in left knee may indicate an existing [blank_start]injury[blank_end].
Current medication - eg using an inhaler for asthma may suggest that gentle [blank_start]exercise[blank_end] will be better than strenuous exercise.
Alcohol and tobacco consumption - which may affect the cardiovascular and respiratory [blank_start]systems[blank_end].
Level of current physical [blank_start]activity[blank_end] - to prevent over-exertion which may cause injury.
Family [blank_start]medical[blank_end] history - eg if a close family member died of a heart attack then care should be taken before strenuous exercise is recommended.
Previous treatments - eg surgery after a dislocated shoulder may [blank_start]limit[blank_end] the range of movement.
All treatments and exercise programmes carry some [blank_start]risk[blank_end]. For example, lifting weights in the gym can damage your back and doing a lot of running can damage your knees and other [blank_start]joints[blank_end].
It is up to the individual and the healthcare professional to [blank_start]balance[blank_end] these risks against the benefits of the treatment or exercise programme and decide what to do.- Ainjury

14BMI = weight (kg) / [height (m)]^2
BMI can be use to tell you the proportion of your weight and height, and to categorise people.- ATrue
- BFalse
15In order to know whether a new [blank_start]training[blank_end] programme has made a positive impact on fitness, it is important to [blank_start]record[blank_end] measurements regularly. These measurements could include:
the type and duration of exercise done on different days over a [blank_start]period[blank_end] of time
a food [blank_start]diary[blank_end] so that nutrition can also be evaluated
[blank_start]resting[blank_end] heart rate
blood [blank_start]pressure[blank_end]
breathing [blank_start]rate[blank_end]
duration of [blank_start]recovery[blank_end] period after completing a particular exercise or workout
BMI
[blank_start]percentage[blank_end] body fat
weight [blank_start]lost[blank_end] or gained
Recording more than one type of measurement is important because some measurements of fitness may show an [blank_start]improvement[blank_end], but others may not.
It is important to consider the [blank_start]accuracy[blank_end] of each type of measurement of fitness, and whether it can be repeated under the same [blank_start]conditions[blank_end], in order to evaluate its reliability.
For example, if blood pressure was being monitored a [blank_start]misleading[blank_end] figure could be attained. Values should be obtained using a [blank_start]specific[blank_end] method - such as sitting down with the arm at chest height - to ensure repeatability was accurate. If this method was not followed then the result would not be [blank_start]reliable[blank_end]. Values could also be altered if the person was stressed.
Another example would be monitoring your BMI. This value could vary on an [blank_start]hourly[blank_end] basis depending on your food and fluid intake. To ensure accuracy, the reading should be taken at the same [blank_start]time[blank_end] of day to make results usefully comparable.- Atraining

18A physiotherapist is a [blank_start]healthcare[blank_end] professional who [blank_start]specialises[blank_end] in treating people who have skeletal-[blank_start]muscular[blank_end] injuries.
Physiotherapists work out programmes of movements and [blank_start]exercises[blank_end] for patients to follow in order to increase their [blank_start]range[blank_end] of movement, [blank_start]flexibility[blank_end] and strength after an injury.- Aflexibility

19Heart rate is measured in beats per [blank_start]minute[blank_end]. Generally speaking, the lower someone’s resting [blank_start]heart[blank_end] rate, the fitter they are. A teenager or adult has a [blank_start]typical[blank_end] resting heart rate of 60-80 beats per minute.
Heart rate [blank_start]increases[blank_end] during exercise to transport oxygen and glucose to the muscles and to remove [blank_start]waste[blank_end] products. After exercise, the heart rate begins to return to [blank_start]normal[blank_end] and this is called the recovery period. The [blank_start]shorter[blank_end] the recovery period, the fitter the individual.- Aminute

20The heart does not return to its normal rate immediately to ensure that all the carbon dioxide that has built up around the muscle cells is removed.
- ATrue
- BFalse
