Answer 1

1. All the 3 given options Emotional, Physical and Intellectual are included in dimensions of wellness.

The 8 main dimensions of wellness are physical, emotional, intellectual, social, spiritual, vocational, environmental and financial. All these dimensions of wellness are mutually interdependent.

Physical dimensions are about caring for one's own body. intellectual dimension means attaining intellectual growth through life long learning and emotional dimension is about valuing ones own feelings along with that of others.

2. Contemplation is the answer.

Stages of change as per trans theoretical model are Precontemplation (people do not intend to take action in next 6 months), Contemplation (people intend to start a healthy behavior in the next 6 months), Preparation (determined to take an action within the next 30 days), Action (already changed their behavior recently), Maintenance (sustained behavior change for a while and intend to maintain the behavior change in future too) and Termination (no desire to return back to the unhealthy behavior).

3. Exercise is the answer which involves planned movements which are structured intended to maintain fitness.

Physical activity includes all forms of activities or movements produced by skeletal muscles.

4. Answer: All of the above. Running, Lap swimming, and Hiking are classified as vigorous physical activities.

Vigorous activities elevates the heart rate and breathing rate and has effects that improves fitness.

5. Answer is Through the body.

From the superior and inferior vena cava deoxygenated blood reaches the right atrium and then passes to the right ventricle through the tricuspid valve. From their blood travels to the pulmonary trunk through pulmonary valves. Pulmonary arteries carries blood to the lungs for purification. Through the pulmonary veins purified oxygenated blood reaches the left atrium and then to the left ventricle through the bicuspid valve. From left ventricle blood is pumped to the systemic circulation through the ascending and descending aorta.

6. For a healthy adult a blood pressure measurement of 120/80mmHg is considered as normal.

A value below the standardized above given value of blood pressure may be classified as hypotension and a blood pressure reading above 140/90mmhg is considered as hypertension.

7. Answer is Muscle hypertrophy which means an increase in size of the cells in the muscles.

Muscular atrophy means loss of muscle mass, megally means enlargement of an organ (hepatomegaly, splenomegaly) and buffed means a shiny appearance.

8. Ligaments are tissues that connects bones to each other

Tendons connects muscles to bones, cartilage are fibrous connective tissues that mainly coats the surface of bones at the location of mobile joints and meniscus is a cartilage tissue that forms a cushion between the femur and tibia.

9. All of the above is the answer as a joint is comprised of Ligaments, Joint capsule, Cartilage, bones, muscles and synovium.

10. Answer: Passive stretching.

Ballistic stretching involves stretching a limb beyond its normal range of motion, movements involving full range of motion of joints and muscles are included in dynamic stretching and static stretching means holding a single position or stand/lie/sit for a fixed period of time (up to 45 seconds).

11. True.

As per Federal Physical Activity Guidelines, an adult should perform at least 150 to 300 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise a week , or 75 to 150 minutes of vigorous-intensity aerobic physical activity a week or a combination of moderate- and vigorous-intensity aerobic activity that is equivalent to the above mentioned activities. Aerobic activities are suggested to be spread throughout the week.

12. True

Muscle strength is the amount of force produced by a muscle in a single maximal effort. The muscle fibers size as well as ability of nerves to activate them are related to the strength of a muscle. Improving the muscle strength helps to improve the metabolism, body alignment as well as ease out performance of activities of daily living.

13. False.

Proper hydration is indicated by a pale honey / straw colored / lemonade colored urine.

Dark yellow or amber colored and cloudy urine indicates dehydration. Orange colour urine indicates severe dehydration and necessitates improved fluid and electrolyte intake.

14. False.

Muscles contacts and shortens in concentric contraction. In isometric contraction a force is generated but the length of muscle remains unchanged.

15. True.

Static stretching includes stretching a group of muscles to its farthest point and maintaining that position for a fixed period of time.
