QUESTIONS WITH ANSWERS GRADED A+
◍ fasting plasma glucose (FPG).
Answer: measures circulating glucose level in a patient who has fasted at
least 8 hours
◍ What factors of working with hand tools cause discomfort, fatigue and,
eventually, work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs)?.
Answer: -static load on arms and upper body muscles-awkward working
positions and body postures-tissue compression-vibration
◍ Q= MAP/TPR what happens when 1. pressure inc? 2. resistance increases?.
Answer: Pressure inc= INC MAP, INC Q, DEC TPRResistance inc= INC
TPR, DEC MAP, DEC Q
◍ Baroeceptors.
Answer: located in the carotid sinus and aortic arch are sensitive to changes
in BP
◍ Which energy system is primarily responsible for energy production if an
individual ran a 500m race?.
Answer: Non-Oxidative
◍ What is poor body composition for an adult male?.
Answer: 25%-35%
◍ What are the signs and symptoms of 3rd degree AC Joint Sprain?.
Answer: Rupture of many ligaments, very painful

response (Positive Feed Back Loop)

CO2
◍ What is ventricular contractility?.
Answer: Measure of ventricles' capacity to generate force

Answer: resistance to blood flow
◍ Osteoporosis.
Answer: a condition in which the bones become fragile and break easily
◍ Precede-Proceed Model.
