Question 21.
What were the rules for competitions in Ancient Olympic Games?
OR
Write the importance of Lifestyle. [3]
Answer:
Rules of Ancient Olympics: It was extremely essential to follow the following rules to take part in Olympic Games:
(1) All players participating in these games ought to be Greeks.
(2) It was essential for a player to take up training for 10 months under the care of somebody before taking part in these games.
(3) No professional could participate in these games.
(4) In the initial stage, women were neither allowed to witness nor participate in these games. They used to have their own games called the Heraca in honor of Hera, wife of the God Zeus.
(5) The players had to take an oath to participate in the games properly.
(6) The players should not have any criminal charges.

Importance of Lifestyle:
(1) Reduces stress: One of the most effective benefits of exercise is stress reduction. It helps to manage a person’s physical and mental stress by increasing blood circulation in the blood.

(2) Increases happiness: Exercise increases the endorphins of the brain, leading to the feeling of happiness. Happiness elevates symptoms of depression in clinically depressed individuals. Exercise can be just as effective as any medication used to treat depression.

(3) Improves self-confidence: When the body feels good, the individual starts feeling good about them self as well. Exercising can work to tone, strengthen, and tighten the muscles in the body, and all of these factors can work to improve self-image.

(4) Regularises deficiencies: A daily dose of Vitamin D increases mood and self-esteem as well. A healthy lifestyle is one in which an individual goes for a walk outside and enjoys the fresh air and sunshine daily.

(5) Keeps mentally strong: As we get older, our brains start to slow down. By incorporating exercise in to the daily routine, one can decrease the likelihood of Alzheimer’s and other types of cognitive decline. For people between the ages of 25 and 45, exercising is more important because it can prevent degeneration or the aspects of the brain that are devoted to memory and learning.

(6) Decreases anxiety: By exercising, one can reduce symptoms of anxiety. Studies have shown that the chemicals that the brain releases before or after exercise can help a person to calm down.

(7) Controls addiction: While exercising, the brain releases a reward chemical, which is similar to the reward chemical that one feels in response to exercise, drugs, food, etc. Exercise helps to ease addictions by deprioritizing cravings, leading to a healthier and happier life.

(8) Encourages creativity: Exercise helps to boost creativity. For example, a gym session can increase brain activity for up to two hours post-workout.

Question 22.
How is inclusion implemented? [3]
Answer:
Implementation of Inclusion:

(1) Sensory Integration: Generally, the physical education classes have loud music and fluorescent lights. These are major barriers to students with some types of neurological differences. Many students are also sensitive to bright sunlight outdoors and the sound of squeaking sneakers on the gym floor. The music problem can be solved by lowering the volume or turning it off.

Soundproof headphones may also be used indoors, and sunglasses can be used outdoors. Schools may find other indoor lighting options that are more costeffective, taking advantage of green energy incentives for LED light bulbs or simply shutting off some lights or relying more on natural lighting.

(2) Behaviour: Positive Behaviour Interventions and Support (PBIS) are systematic, proven methods to prevent negative behaviours and increase healthy interactions. The method may be summarized as “Prevent, Teach, Reinforce.” Behavioural expectations are explained from the beginning with supports such as picture schedules. Then the class material is taught through positive interactions, and the lesson is reinforced by referring back to behavioural expectations and evaluating progress.

(3) Class Size: It is possible to create a positive experience for a student with special needs in a super-sized class. Support groups can work together in class to ensure full inclusion. For example, if a child is having trouble with any personal equipment, other children in the group can share their equipment with the child. If a child is not able to understand the use of a ruler clearly, other children in the group can explain in a more understandable words.

(4) Team Building: Physical Education is the perfect opportunity for team building exercises. Instead of competitive games, the class can focus on creating games that only succeed when a whole team works together.

Question 23.

Question 25.
Why are anatomy and physiology studied together? [3]
Answer:
The word anatomy has been derived from a Greek word “Anatome” which means to cut up. It is the study of structures that make up the body and how those structures relate with each other. The word physiology has been derived from a Greek word “physis-logia” meaning study of nature. It is the study of how the body and its parts work or function. Hence, anatomy and physiology are studied together to give students a full appreciation and understanding of human body.

Question 26.
List the procedure for measuring upper leg length. [3]
Answer:
Procedure for Measurement of Upper Leg Length: The subject is made to sit on the box with the right knee bent at 90° angle, sitting up straight. Place zero at the inguinal crease (crease between the torso and the thigh). Lift the thigh slightly of the box and extend the tape to the proximal border of patella.

Question 27.
Explain the various properties of muscles.
OR
Give names of some of the Winter Games. [3]
Answer:
Properties of Muscles:
(1) Excitability: For a muscle to contract and do work, its cells must be stimulated.
(2) Contractibility: When a muscle cell is excited, the impulse travels along various membranes of the cell to its interior, the muscle, as a whole, contracts.
(3) Extensibility: The long, cylindrical muscle cells contract, and in order for them to retain this ability, they possess the capacity to lengthen. The muscle cells can be stretched to about three times their contracted length without rupturing. For example, when you run, the hamstring in the back of your thigh contracts while your quadriceps are extended and conversely.
(4) Elasticity: The muscles require the property of elastic recoil for them to be able to do their jobs. If, say, your biceps muscles failed to recoil to their resting length after being stretched during a series of curling exercises, they would become slack, and slack muscles with no tension are unable to generate any force and are therefore useless as levers.

Question 29.
Write the importance of Warming Up. [3]
Answer:
Importance of Warming Up:
(1) Decreases the resistance in muscle capillaries.
(2) Increases the speed of transfer of oxygen and fuel to tissues.
(3) Increases metabolic rate.
(4) Reduces the anxiety and tension.
(5) Increases the body temperature.
(6) Decreases the viscosity of muscles.
(7) Increases the speed of nerve impulses.

Question 30.
Explain the classification of skills. [3]
Answer:
Classification of Skills:
(1) Gross skills: These involve large muscle movements which are not very precise and include many fundamental movement patterns such as walking, running and jumping. The shot put is an example of a gross skill.

(2) Fine skills: These involve intricate precise movements using small muscle groups and generally involve high levels of hand-eye coordination. A snooker shot or playing the piano are examples of fine skills.

(3) Open skills: Sports such as Netball, Football and Hockey involve open skills. The environment is constantly changing and so movements have to be continually adapted. Skills are predominantly perceptual and externally paced, for example, a pass in football.

(4) Closed skills: Skills that take place in a stable, predictable environment and the performer knows exactly what to do and when. Skills are not affected by the environment and movements follow set patterns and have a clear beginning and end. The skills tend to be self-paced, for example a free throw in Basketball and serving in Squash or Tennis.

(5) Discrete skills: These skills are brief, well-defined actions that have a clear beginning and end. These are single, specific skills, which make up the actions involved in a variety of sports such as hitting and throwing e.g. a penalty flick in hockey.

(6) SerialSkills: These skills are a group of discrete skills strung together to make a new and complex movement, i.e. the sequence of skills for the triple jump.

(7) Continuous skills: These skills have no obvious beginning or end. The end of one cycle of movements is the beginning of the next and the skill is repeated like a cycle. These skills could be stopped at any moment during the performance of the sport, i.e. Swimming, Running, Cycling, etc.

(8)Internally paced or self-paced skills: The performer controls the rate at which the skill is executed. These skills are usually closed skills, i.e. javelin throw, discus throw.

(9) Externally paced skills: The environment, which may include opponents, controls the rate of performing the skill. The performer must pay attention external events in order to control his/her rate movement. These skills involve reaction and are usually open skills, i.e. in ball games; the performer must time his actions with the actions of other players and the ball.

Answer:
The person completing Post Graduate degree courses in physical education can work as Assistant Professor, and Ph.D. in physical education for associate professor and professor in colleges and universities as per the qualification to teach physical education in various specialised area of subjects. Career options available in the field of physical education.
(1) Athletic Coach: Organises, instructs, and teaches amateur and professional athletes in fundamentals of individual and team sports.
(2) After-school/Summer Programme Coordinator: Responsible for administration of programme and activities run at that time. Job responsibilities are similar to that of a Principal of an Institution.
(3) Athletic Director-College / University: Responsibilities similar to the Head of the Department of Physical Education or an Administrator.
(4) Activities Director: Responsible for a recreation programme’s daily operation, primarily organise and direct participants.

Functions of bones: Our bones perform seven important functions:
(1) Support: Bones provide a framework that supports the body and cradles its soft organs. For example, bones of the lower limbs act as pillars to support the trunk of the body when we stand and the rib cage supports the thoracic wall.
(2) Protection: The fused bones of the skull protect the brain, the vertebrae surround the spinal cord and the rib cage protects the vital organs of the thorax.
(3) Movement: Skeletal muscles, which attach to bones by tendons, use bones as levers to move the body and its parts. As a result, we can walk, grasp objects and breath. The design of joints determines the types of movements possible.
(4) Mineraland growth factorstorage: Bone is a reservoir for minerals, mostimportantlycalciumand phosphate. The stored minerals are released into the blood stream in their ionic form as needed for distribution to all parts of the body.
(5) Blood cell formation: Most blood cell formation, or hematopoiesis, occurs in the red marrow cavities of certain bones.
(6) Triglyceride (fat) storage: Fat, a source of energy for the body, is stored in bone cavities.
(7) Hormone production: Bones produce osteocalcin, a hormone which not only helps regulate bone formation, but also protects against obesity, glucose intolerance and diabetes mellitus.

Question 33.

Question 34.
Why is blood important for the human body?
OR
Enumerate the importance of measurement in physical education and sports. [5]
Answer:
Blood is a vitally important fluid for the body. Important functions of blood are given below:
(1) Transport of oxygen from the lungs to the tissues and carbon dioxide from the tissues to the lungs.
(2) It carries food material absorbed from the intestines to the tissue cells for growth, energy and repair process.
(3) It carries the waste products of cellular activity and carries them to kidneys, lungs and intestines for excretion.
(4) It carries hormones, vitamins and other chemicals to the place of need.
(5) It helps to maintain water balance in the body.
(6) It regulates the body temperature.
(7) White blood cells of the blood act as a defensive mechanism.

Measurement is an important aspect of all the programmes of physical education and sports. Without measurement, it becomes very difficult to determine the level of achievement of various objectives of physical education and sports by an individual. The following is the importance of measurement in physical education and sports:

(1) For Motivating: The amount and ways of motivation can be given to students or participants on the basis of measurement.

(2) For Discovering the Needs of Participants: Measurement helps in discovering the needs of participants. It identifies the strengths and weaknesses of participants or students. The curriculum can be prepared accordingly. It also shows where the emphasis should be laid.

(3) For Knowing the Abilities and Capacities: With the help of measurement, teachers of physical education can come to know about the abilities and capacities of students which ultimately helps in the preparation of a programme.

(4) For Preparation of Effective Planning: With the help of measurement, the effective planning can be done. Without measurement, a good planning can be completely useless. Teaching or coaching method can be changed on the basis of measurement. Students can be guided or directed appropriately with the help of measurement.

(5) For Getting Knowledge about Progress: With the help of measurement, physical education teachers can get the appropriate knowledge about the progress of students. To know about the progress is not only significant for the teachers but for students also. If students do not know about the progress, they will be in the dark. Without the appropriate knowledge of their progress, they cannot come to know where they stand.

Even the teachers of physical education cannot modify the programs of physical education and sports appropriately. Without measurement, it is difficult to determine accurately the extent to which the objectives have been met. Teachers cannot improve the programs related to the physical education, if they don’t know the level of achievement or progress.

(6) For Knowing the Achievements in Future: On the basis of measurement, the achievements of participants in the future can be predicted.

(7) For Proper Classification of Students: With the help of measurement, students can be classified properly. It can be said that measurement is really significant in the field of physical education and sports.
