An individual’s health and wellbeing can be influenced by their overall perception of health. For example the way an individual judges their health or the meanings they give health will be reflected in their behaviour.A further example – the belief in the importance of body image and having low body weight and being tanned may influence a person to engage in negative behaviours such as sun baking and skipping meals or smoking to decrease body weight.Alternatively a person who engages in excessive binge drinking and acknowledges that this is detrimental to their health will cease drinking or limit their intake to maintain positive health.(4 Marks)Describe how an individual’s access to technology can determine their health.CriteriaMarksProvides characteristics and features of how an individual’s access to technology can determine their health4 Sketches in general terms the relationship between technology and health2–3Identifies some relevant information on technology and health1Answer may include: Technology can have a positive and negative influence over health.For young people, large amounts of screen time (use of mobile phones, computers and electronic games) have impacted significantly in terms of reduction in involvement in physical activity and being overall sedentary. Inactivity can influence levels of weight and obesity.Technology has assisted the health of people in rural and remote areas through providing access to accurate health information, thereby improving knowledge and skills in awareness of health issues. This further improves health outcomes and the adoption of preventative strategies.Mobile phone technology has assisted in isolated areas gaining access to emergency services quickly, thereby influencing response time and enhancing better health outcomes.(3 Marks)Outline the positive health status of young people.CriteriaMarksSketches in general terms the positive health status of young people 3Identifies a range of positive aspects of the health status of young people2Provides some relevant information about the health status of young people1Answer may include: Young people have generally a positive health status. Over time their health status has improved.A positive health status can be seen in trends of increasing life expectancy and declines in mortality rates (from injury, suicide and transport accidents) and a decline in morbidity from chronic disease such as asthma and communicable diseases. In addition a large number of young people are free of tooth decay and there has been decreases in communicable diseases such as Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B and HIVYoung people also report positive assessments of their own health when self-rating.Question 22- BETTER HEALTH FOR INDIVIDUALS (17 Marks)(4 Marks)Identify ONE non-government organisation AND describe its roles in health promotion.CriteriaMarksAccurately identifies a non-government organisation and provides characteristics and features of its roles in health promotion4Identifies a non-government organisation and sketches in general terms its roles in health promotion2–3Identifies a non-government organisation or provides some relevant information about health promotion1Answer may include: Non-government organisations include: Asthma Australia, Cancer Council, National Heart Foundation, Diabetes Australia.Roles include: lobbying, fund raising, collecting data, advising, providing support, promoting awareness, education.(3 Marks)Explain how environmental determinants can impact on an individual’s health. CriteriaMarksBriefly explains how environmental determinants can impact on an individual’s health3Outlines how environmental determinants can impact on an individual’s health2Provides some relevant information about environmental determinants or an individual’s health1Answer may include: Geographical locationAccess to health services and technology Must explain how environmental determinants impact on health, that is, is the outcome negative or positive for one’s health(4 Marks) What strategies do schools employ to promote the health of individuals?CriteriaMarksSketches in general terms a range of strategies used in schools to promote the health of individuals Provides a range of relevant examples4Sketches in general terms some strategies used in schools to promote the health of individuals Limited examples2–3Identifies a strategy used in school to promote health1Answer may include: Responsibility for health promotion – schools. Strategies include:Teaching PDHPE for K-12Sun safety policies – ‘no hat no play’ to reduce sun exposure and effects of harmful UV raysHealthy school anteen strategy – providing health food alternatives to studentsAnti-bullying policies – promoting sound mental healthPlaygrounds and play equipment available at lunchtime to enhance opportunities for physical activityPeer support programs – individuals feel connected and supported by each other(6 Marks) ‘Cancer screening’ aims to detect evidence of cancer before symptoms appear. Observe the image of recent cancer screening in Australia.% of targeted population screened in 2010Explain the role of preventative health promotion approaches in improving the health of individuals.CriteriaMarksExplains the role of preventative health promotion approaches in improving the health of individualsProvides some examples relevant to the case study5–6Provides the characteristics and features of health promotion approaches in improving the health of individualsProvides some examples3–4Sketches in general terms preventative health promotion approaches ORSketches in general terms ways to improve the health of individuals1–2Answer may include: Preventative health promotion approaches include the use of health screenings and vaccinations. These approaches focus on disease prevention and the treatment of illness and their symptoms to limit the impact on an individual’s health.If an individual has a genetic predisposition to a certain illness – preventative measures can be put in place to improve the individual’s health.Immunisations are an effective preventative health approach as they aim to prevent the illness from ever occurring in an individual and can be very beneficial for improving an individuals health, e.g. hepatitis B vaccines.Screening assists in the early detection of an illness and therefore can improve the health outcome for the individual. For example – breast screen and free mammograms for women over 50 years.Question 23- THE BODY IN MOTION (8 Marks)(3 Marks)Describe how the skeletal and muscular body systems work together to enable movement.CriteriaMarksDemonstrates a sound knowledge of the skeletal and muscular systems and how they work together to enable movementProvides relevant examples.3Sketches in general terms the characteristics of the skeletal and muscular system in relation to movementProvides relevant examples2Identifies some relevant information about the skeletal and/or muscular system1Answer may include:The skeletal system comprises bones connected at joints by ligaments. Bones provide a structure for the human body. Bones move because muscles pull on them. Muscles are connected to bones by tendons. When muscles shorten, they pull on tendons which in turn pull on the bone or bones to which they are attached. Joints allow flexibility within the skeletal system. Joint actions for example, flexion and extension become possible depending upon the position of muscle attachment and the type of joint, for example, a hinge joint allows flexion and extensionIn producing movement a muscle is either an agonist (prime mover), antagonist (relaxes and lengthens to allow movement) or a stabiliser (giving the muscle a fixed base). For example in bending the elbow the agonist is the biceps and the antagonist the triceps.(3 Marks)Examine the image of the knee joint.26574754077970Muscle16234500Muscle162345CriteriaMarksCorrectly identifies and describes the indicated structures and functions of the synovial joint3Outlines 2 indicated structures and functions of the synovial joint2Identifies 1 indicated structures and functions of the synovial joint1Answer may include:NumberStructureFunction1LigamentThese strong fibrous bands connect articulating bones, providing stability to the joint.3CartilageProvides a smooth surface for the movement of articulating bones.6TendonTough, inelastic cords attaching muscle to bone; they help strengthen the joint.(2 Marks)With reference to one of the following images, or muscle groups you have studied, describe the relationship between agonist and antagonist muscles.30765751299210321945057150CriteriaMarksSketches in general terms the relationship between agonist and antagonist muscles 2Sketches in general terms the role of agonist OR antagonist muscles OR Identifies an example of agonist and antagonist muscle relationship1Sample answer: Agonist – is the prime mover muscle and is most responsible for movement; it will shorten during an action.Antagonist – is the muscle that works in opposition to the agonist muscle; it will lengthen during the muscle action.Where to from here?
