PE 5091 Praxis Exam Questions and Answers Fully Solved
Movement - Answers What the body is doing
Locomotor - Answers Gets the body from place to place (run, jump)
Non-Locomotor - Answers Continual movement such as bending or stretching
Balance - Answers Is the ability to maintain and control body position while in black or moving.
Static Balance - Answers Balance in place.
Dynamic Balance - Answers Balance while moving.
Manipulative Body Movement - Answers Uses another object such as a ball or chair.
Aerobic - Answers Activity that requires oxygen over a period of time. Rhythmic steady exercise which
uses oxygen to oxygen glucose, fat, and proteins to release energy for the working muscle.
Anaerobic - Answers Activity in which the participant performs to the point of oxygen debt.
Agility - Answers Ability to change directions rapidly.
Flexibility - Answers The ability to move a particular joint through its range of motion.
Plyometrics - Answers Measurable increase in jumping and speed.
Power - Answers The product of force and velocity.
Strength - Answers A measure of one's ability to exert muscular force against resistance
Progressive Resistance Exercise - Answers The resistance used in training that is progressively increased
systematically as the body adapts to the training stimulus.
Variable Resistance - Answers An apparatus that automatically varies the resistance to the lifter.
Force - Answers Push/Pull
Fine Motor Skills - Answers Involve movement using small groups of muscular.
Gross Motor Skills - Answers These are skills which involve large groups of muscles.
Isometric Muscle Action - Answers Occurs when a muscle starts to contrast and shorten but is then
stopped by an immovable resistance. (Try lifting a weight but cannot)
Isotonic Muscle Action - Answers Normal muscle action, when the muscle shortens as it produces
movement. (Bicep curls)
Interval Training - Answers Training with alternating work intervals and rest in intervals. (Run then rest)
, Lactic Acid - Answers Produced by muscles working powerfully without enough oxygen. The increase
acidity stimulates faster breathing and causes muscle pain.
Levers - Answers A structure with a pivot point about which an effort moves a load. There are 3 types of
levers according to the different positions of the efforts, load, and pivot.
Motion - Answers Movement and the change of position , including the idea of speed.
Motor Skill - Answers The learned ability to preform in a physical activity, efficiently, successfully, and
consistently.
FITT - Answers Frequency, Intensity, Time, Type of Activity
Cardiorespiratory Endurance - Answers Is the ability of the circulatory and respiratory systems to supply
oxygen during sustained physical activity.
Muscle Strength - Answers Is the maximum amount of force a muscle can produce in a single effort.
Muscle Endurance - Answers Is the ability of the muscle to continue to perform without fatigue.
Aerobic Exercise - Answers Is one in which large amounts of oxygen are required continually for an
extended period of time. (Improves cardio endurance)
Anaerobic Exercise - Answers Is one in which the body's demand for oxygen is greater than what is
available during exercise. (Improves muscular strength and endurance)
Isometric Exercise - Answers Is one in which a muscle tightened for 5 to 8 seconds and there is no body
movement. (Pressing the palms of hands together)
Isotonic Exercise - Answers Is one in which a muscle moves a moderate amount of weight 8 to 15 times
through total range of motion. (Improves muscle strength and endurance)
Isokinetic Exercise - Answers Is an exercise using special machines that provide weight resistance
through the full range of motion.(Improves muscle strength, endurance, and flexibility)
Dancing - Answers Locomotor Skill
Clean-Jerk, Rebound in basketball, Sprinter's start - Answers Work and Time
Tripod - Answers Headstand
Classroom management expectations - Answers Starts at the beginning of the school year.
Minimizing the risk of heart disease - Answers Avoid smoking
Minimizing the avoidance reaction in a child - Answers Use yarn ball
Software program to create student reports to document progress - Answers Spreadsheet Program
