Dynamic strength involves

an isotonic contraction

collagen is the major component of all but which of the following tissue?

bone

A ___ contraction involves a shortening of muscle fibers, which decreases the angle of the associated joint

concentric

the ability of a muscle to stretch is called

elasticity

longitudinal bone growth occurs at the bones

epiphyseal plates

true or false- an isometric contraction entails contraction of the muscle with angle shortening

false

true or false- following an acute soft tissue injury, the application of superficial heat during the inflammatory phase of healing can be beneficial as a means for increasing blood to the area

false

true or false- radiating pain is pain perceived at a location remote from the site of the tissue actually causing the pain

false

true or false- the gate control theory pf pain is sustained by the observation that increased sensory input can reduce the sensation of pain

false

true or false-longitudinal bone growth continues only as long as the bones epiphyseal plates continue to exist

false

a ___ is an involuntary contraction of short duration caused by reflex action that can be biochemically derived or initiated by a mechanical btw to a nerve or muscle

muscle spasm

pain perceived at a location remote from the site of the tissue actually causing the pain is termed

somatic pain

a pulling force that tends to stretch the object to which it is applied is called

tensile force

while stretching for an overthrown ball, a first basemen strained an adductor muscle. what type of force would have produced this injury

tensile force

Strength gains depend primarily on

the specific training method

the primary concern with a skin bruise is

to control superficial bleeding

the function of the joint capsule is

to secrete synovial fluid

in a ___ fracture, the break occurs in a straight line across the bone

transverse

true or false- a contusion is an accumulation of blood between the layers of skin

true

true or false- a primary concern with a joint dislocation is the potential for reoccurrence

true

true or false- a symptom of tendonitis is pain and swelling with tendon movement

true

true or false- an individual focusing on the development of muscular strength should not wok the same muscle groups on successive days, in order to allow recovery from fatigue and muscle soreness

true

true or false- bones are best able to resist shearing forces

true

true or false- concentric contractions generate greater force than isometric contractions, and isometric contractions great greater force than eccentric contractions

true

true or false- in performing a flexibility exercise, the appropriate intensity is reached when a feeling of slight tension or burn is felt

true

true or false- injury to the ephiphsis could result in alteration of normal growth

true

true or false- movements of flexion and extension occur in the saggital plane

true

true or false- running downhill is a common cause for hamstring and knee injuries

true

true or false- tendons are equal in strength to their attached muscle

true

true or false- the 3 primary mechanical forces responsible for injuries include compression, tension, and shearing

true

The ___ principle states that the body responds to a given demand with a specific and predictable adaptation

Specificity
