PSE4U Exam Review — Student Handout

PSE4U EXAMINATION

Friday Janurary 18th 2013, Room B106, Period 3 12:30pm-2:00pm

Instructions:

You will have 1.5 hours to complete this exam. Read the instructions of each part carefully and answer each question to the best of your ability.

There will be multiple choice, short answer, fill in the blanks and one long answer question based on the culminating seminars/tutorials.

Exam Review - Key Learnings

These six key learnings have been identified as most important for you to take away from this course. The exam will reflect your level of understanding in all of these areas:

▪ describe the structure and function of the human body and of the physiological principles relating to human performance

▪ demonstrate an understanding of the ways in which nutrition and training principles affect human performance

▪ demonstrate an understanding of individual differences in performance, growth and development

▪ use the principles of motor learning to analyze or teach a skill

▪ Investigate the evolution of physical activity and sport

▪ analyze the relationship of society and culture to sports and physical activity

Units and Topics for Review

UNIT 1: ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY

Anatomical Terminology: (remember the Bell Ringer Test)

▪ terms of direction (e.g., proximal, distal)

▪ terms of movement (e.g., flexion, extension)

▪ names of bones (axial and appendicular skeleton)

▪ types of muscles (e.g., smooth, cardiac, skeletal)

▪ muscle actions (e.g., agonist vs. antagonist)

▪ names of muscles

▪ classification of joints (e.g., synovial)

▪ joint types (e.g., hinge)

▪ acute and chronic injuries (very general)

Cardiorespiratory System and Energy Production:

• gross anatomy of the heart

▪ circulation (e.g., systemic, pulmonary)

▪ pathway of conduction and cardiac cycle

▪ heart functions (e.g., stroke volume, heart rate, cardiac output, venous return)

▪ gross anatomy of the respiratory system

▪ mechanics of respiration

▪ pathway of nutrients and oxygen to the muscles

▪ three energy systems

▪ cardiorespiratory adaptations to training

UNIT 2: HUMAN PERFORMANCE

▪ six nutrients (CHO, protein, fats, minerals, vitamins, and water)

▪ Importance of major minerals(calcium, sodium, potassium) and vitamins (A,B,C,D,E,K)

▪ energy nutrient balance

▪ importance of hydration

▪ caloric balance

▪ BMR, RMR, and BMI

▪ performance-enhancing methods and substances (e.g., blood doping, steroids, creatine, caffeine) very general

Training Principles and Technology

▪ components of fitness (e.g., skill related vs. health related)

▪ physical and health benefits of training

▪ effects of different environmental conditions during exercise (e.g., high altitude, climate)

▪ training principles (e.g., F.I.T.T., Borg scale, Karvonen Method THR)

▪ training methods (e.g., interval, Fartlek, plyometrics)

▪ fitness testing and assessment

UNIT 3: MOTOR DEVELOPMENT

Growth and Development:

▪ stages of development: (e.g., infancy, toddler, childhood)

▪ factors that affect physical growth and development (e.g., nutrition, sleep)

▪ phases of motor development (e.g., reflexive, rudimentary)

▪ fundamental movement skills (e.g., locomotive, manipulative)

Motor Learning:

▪ classifying skills (e.g., discrete, continuous, open, closed)

▪ phases of a skill (e.g., preliminary movement, force producing, critical instant)

▪ skill acquisition process (e.g., stages of learning)

▪ physical and psychological factors that affect skill performance (e.g., visualization, fatigue)
