ISSA TRAINER EXAM QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS GRADED A+ Muscular, cardiopulmonary, and metabolic adaptations to exercise are known as the training effect. (T/F) -ANS>> True The body's automatic tende ... ncy to maintain a constant internal body environment through various processes is called: -ANS>> Homeostasis BMR stands for -ANS>> basal metabolic rate Anabolism and catabolism occur at the same time throughout the body. (T/F) -ANS>> True A calorie is a unit of heat. (T/F) -ANS>> True The preferred unit in metabolic studies and nutrition labels is the kilocalorie (kcal). (T/F) -ANS>> True The primary (not the 'initial') fuel during endurance exercise is: -ANS>> Fatty acids The molecule used for storing and transferring energy in the body is called: -ANS>> Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) The ATP/CP pathway is the primary pathway used for activities lasting two minutes or greater. (T/F) -ANS>> False About 98% of the human body is composed of only six elements: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorous. (T/F) -ANS>> True The respiratory system is responsible for: -ANS>> - Supplying oxygen to the body - Eliminating carbon dioxide in the body - Helps regulate the body's pH balance The circulatory system consists of: -ANS>> Heart, arteries, and veins The nervous system is made up of the: -ANS>> peripheral nervous system and central nervous system Excretion is one function of the digestive system. (T/F) -ANS>> True Hormones are classified as: -ANS>> Steroids, Amino-Acid derivatives, Peptides Hemoglobin is an oxygen-transporting protein in red blood cells. (T/F) -ANS>> True The main purpose(s) of hormones is/are to: -ANS>> - Alter the rate of synthesis of your cellular protein - Change the rate of enzyme activity - Change the rate of transport of nutrients through the cell wall Tendons connect bone to bone. (T/F) -ANS>> False The average human adult skeleton has: -ANS>> 206 bones Tendons: -ANS>> Are extensions of muscle fibers and connect muscle to bone The anatomical terms for front and back are: -ANS>> anterior and posterior Type I muscle fibers are predominantly aerobic. (T/F) -ANS>> True Cardiovascular/aerobic exercise results in: -ANS>> Mitochondrial adaptations Type II muscle fibers are entirely aerobic. (T/F) -ANS>> False Muscular hypertrophy is a(n): -ANS>> increase in muscle fiber size In a concentric contraction, the muscle lengthens to produce movements. (T/F) -ANS>> False Kinesiology is: -ANS>> The science or study of human movement, and the active and passive structures involved An isometric contraction is when: -ANS>> A muscle does not lengthen or shorten as it contracts True synergy occurs when a muscle contracts to stop the secondary action of another muscle. (T/F) -ANS>> True An example of an antagonist muscle is: -ANS>> Triceps during a biceps curl Adduction is a movement of a body part away from the midline of the body. (T/F) -ANS>> False An example of flexion is the: -ANS>> Concentric action of a bicep curl Flexion mainly occurs in which plane? -ANS>> sagittal plane Newton's second law of motion deals with force and its relationship to mass and acceleration. (T/F) -ANS>> True Biomechanics is the study of: -ANS>> movement Muscular force is broken down into the components of: -ANS>> Magnitude, Direction, Point of application, Line of action Inertia can be categorized as: -ANS>> Resting inertia and moving inertia [Show More]
