Question 26.
What are the pitfalls of dieting? [3]
Answer:
The major pit falls of dieting are discussed below:

Lack of proper nutrients: Dieting leads to limit major nutrients severely. You cut out the carbohydrates, fats, proteins and other nutrients. To keep yourself healthy, understand how much amount of particular nutrients are required by your body and follow accordingly.

Skipping Meals: It is a fact that if you have good metabolic rate, you can maintain or lose weight. If it is low, you gain weight very easily. So, if you skip meals, it will lower your metabolism to conserve energy.

Liquid calories: Alcohol, fizzy drinks, squashes, cold drinks, packed juices etc. add a lot of calories. Research suggests that drinking calories contribute a lot in weight gain. Be very careful by sticking to diet drinks.

Not performing exercise: If you keep on dieting and do not perform exercise, it will not work properly. Instead of losing weight, you are likely to gain weight. As a matter of fact, exercise has a positive effect on metabolism and also helps to burn some extra calories. Exercise increases metabolic rate, which ultimately reduces body weight. So, dieting is beneficial if you perform exercise along with it.

Infrequent eating: Dieting leads to infrequent eating. While cutting calories is important, you should try to eat a small, nutritive meal every 3 to 4 hours to keep your metabolism high. Always have breakfast within an hour of waking up to give a good start to your day.

Extreme reduction of calories: While dieting, intake of calories is reduced extremely. Research studies indicate hat 1800 calories a day cannot meet all the nutritional requirements of an individual. If you reduce more intake of calories it will produce, a huge weight loss. It can be dangerous for you.

Not getting enough proteins: Dieting will cut down your protein intake. Proteins are very important for your healthy body. They help you to feel more alert. Adding peanut butter to your toast in the breakfast or a few walnuts to your cereal, or even a boiled egg, will supply you proteins. Weakness on body parts: Muscles become weak and bone density decreases, and reduces joint and bone life.

Question 27.
Discuss the preventive measures of sports injuries. [3]
Answer:
Preventive measure for sports injuries:

Proper Warming up: Proper warm up is essential for the sportspersons before taking partin training or sports competition. It definitely reduces the chances of getting injury, because muscles remain in tone up position after getting proper warm-up. A proper warm up routine should be of at least ten minutes. Such type of warm-up is always helpful in reducing the chances of sports injury.

Balanced Diet: Balanced diet is necessary for all the players or athletes because the lack of essential minerals and vitamins like Calcium, Phosphorus and Vitamin ‘D’ etc. make bones weak. And weak bones cause sports injuries. So, balanced diet is helpful in the prevention of sports injuries.

Use of Protective Equipments: The best way to prevent sports injuries, is the use of protective equipments. Stress should be laid down on the quality of protective equipment.

Use of proper Technique: A sportsperson should learn the proper technique of sports or games from a qualified coach or trainer, so that the risk of getting injuries may be reduced.

Obeying the rules: The athletes or players should obey the rules of games/sports properly, so that the sports injuries can be prevented up to some extent.

Proper knowledge of sports skills: If a player has deep knowledge of sports skills and is efficient completely in performing those skills, you can prevent injuries up to some extent. For example, a high jumper should have proper knowledge and efficiency in landing skill. If he is not efficient in this skill, he may get injury while landing.

Proper Conditioning: It is a fact that many injuries are caused by weak muscles which are not ready to meet the demand of your sports or games. So, for getting proper muscular strength, proper conditioning of your body is essential. Weight training and circuit training methods are important methods of proper conditioning. These methods improve the neuro-coordination which is also helpful in preventing sports injuries.

Proper Sports Facilities: In fact sports injuries can be prevented, if good quality of sports equipments and proper sports grounds are available for practice and competition. If playgrounds are maintained properly, the chances of getting injury on the playground will be reduced.

Unbiased officiating: Good officiating is also essential in preventing sports injuries during a match. If the officials of the match are biased, there may be more chances of indiscipline among players which may further lead to injuries.

Proper Cooling Down: Cooling down should be proper. At least for 5 to 10 minutes, light aerobic activity, such as slow running or jogging should be performed. After that stretching exercises should be done for five minutes. Proper Cooling down helps in removing the waste products like lactic acid etc.

Question 28.
With suitable examples, explain the application of Newton’s law in sports. [3]
Answer:
Newton propounded three laws of motion which are as follow:

(1) Law of Inertia: It is the first law of motion. According to this law, a body at rest will remain at rest, and a body in motion will remain in motion at the same speed and in the same direction, unless acted on by an external force. Similarly, if an object which is in a state of motion, tries to remain in the same position, unless some external force is applied on, the tendency of bodies to resist a change in their state of motion is known as inertia.

Example: A cricket ball will continue to be in motion until it is not stopped by resistance of rough ground and air. Explanation: A thrown ball will not go on forever in a straight line with uniform velocity, because of gravity and air resistance, two external forces that slow the ball and pull it downward. In the same manner, a rolling ball will eventually come to rest because of frictional force, which always opposes the motion of one body over another.

(2) Law of Acceleration: It is the second law of motion. According to this law, “A change in acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the force producing it and inversely proportional to its mass.” This law indicates that a greater force is required to attain a certain space given time. This Law is applicable to relay races, while exchanging zone.

Explanation: In cricket, while taking a high catch, the player is required to move hands backwards while taking the catch. This increases the time, thus decreasing the force required to stop the ball. This ensures that the player doesn’t get hurt in the process.

(3) Law of Action-reaction: According to this law, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction or for every action force, there is an equal and opposite reaction force. All forces act in pairs, and one could say that for every force exerted by a body on another body, there is an equal and opposite force acting on the second body.

Two forces must be interacted for example, when a sprinter drives against the start blocks, the blocks push back against his/her feet. Carrying this further, the blocks must in turn push against the ground which then instantly applies an opposite force against the blocks. If the blocks were to slip, there would be inadequate reaction and the runner would have a poor start.

Example: In shooting, when a gun or pistol is fired the bullet moves forward (action). The gun or pistol jerks backward (reaction). When a person walks, he presses the ground in backward direction (action) by his feet. The ground pushes him in forward direction with an equal force (reaction).

Question 29.
Write a shorts note on Deaflympics. [3]
Answer:
The Deaflympics, also known as Deaflympics are a periodic series of multi-sport events sanctioned by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) at which deaf athletes compete at an elite level.

The events occur every four years. The purpose of Deaflympics is provision of opportunities for deal persons to participate in elite sports.

Question 30.
Define balance diet. Explain any four Micro Nutrients. [3]
Answer:
Balance Diet: A diet which consists of all the essential food constituents viz. protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals and water in correct proportion is called balanced diet. In fact, every individual does not require same type of diet. It differs from person to person. Food is made up of specific elements – proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals and water, which are necessary for life, growth, body function and tissue repair. Any one food may contain several of these essential nutrients, together with the substances needed to assist their absorption. These essential nutrients can be broken into two main groups.

Macronutrients: This includes fats, carbohydrates and protein. They produce energy, and are required in quantities easily measurable by a common scale. Micronutrients: This includes vitamins and minerals. They are essential for helping our bodies work properly and strengthening our immune system, so that we can resist infections.

They are only required in very small or “microscopic” amounts. Fat Soluble Vitamins as Micronutrients: These vitamins are easily dissolved in fat. They come into our body through fats and they are stored in liver and fatty tissues. These vitamins are A, D, E and K.

Vitamin A: Dr. McCollum discovered vitamin ‘A’. This vitamin is yellow in colour. This vitamin is needed for normal growth’ and development of eyes and skin. Night blindness and xeropthalmia are main diseases which are caused by the deficiency of vita min-‘A’. This vitamin also has a negative effect on kidneys, nervous system and digestive system.

Sources: Vitamin A’ is mainly found in ghee, milk, curd, egg, yolk, fish, papaya, tomato, orange, green vegetables, spinach, carrot and pumpkin etc.

Vitamin D: This vitamin is important for formation of strong bones and teeth. This vitamin is also known as sunshine vitamin as sunlight provides this vitamin. Deficiency of this vitamin causes rickets, in which the bones of the children are deformed.

Sources: The source of vitamin ‘D’ are milk, butter, green vegetables, sunlight, cod liver oil, tomato, carrot, egg yolk, fish etc.

Vitamin E: This vitamin is important to protect the cell membrane and acts as antioxidant Its deficiency causes the death of the child in the womb of the mother, abortions and miscarriages happen, with’ the result that women lose their reproductive ability. This vitamin is also essential for proper functioning of adrenal and sex glands.

Sources: The rich sources of vitamin ‘E’ are wheat germ, nuts, vegetables oils, dark green leafy vegetables like spinach and turnip, mustard, sweet potatoes sprout seeds, sunflower seeds, jams etc.

Vitamin K: Naturally produced by the bacteria in the intestine, vitamin K is very important for normal blood clotting. It also promotes health of the bones. Its deficiency leads to excessive bleeding. Generally, blood continues to flow for longer time. The requirement of this vitamin is more for pregnant ladies. Its deficiency also causes anemia.

Sources: This vitamin is mainly found in cauliflower, spinach, cabbage, tomato, potato, green vegetables, wheat, egg and meat etc.

Question 34.
Define flexibility and mention its types. [5]
Answer:
Flexibility: It refers to the range of motion for a given joint. The degree of flexibility, that a person has, is influenced by muscles and  connective tissues, like ligaments and tendons. Stretching is a form of exercise that can lead to an increase in flexibility.
Types of flexibility:
On the basis of movement, flexibility can be divided into following categories:
(1) Passive flexibility
(2) Active flexibility
(i) Static flexibility
(ii) Dynamic flexibility Different types of flexibility are classified according to various type of activities involved in athletic training. Let us consider these types of flexibility in brief, in order to understand their motion. The flexibility which involve motion is called dynamic and which does not involve motion is known as static flexibility.

(1) Passive flexibility: Passive flexibility is also known as static flexibility. It is the ability to have extended positions and maintain then only by using the support of limbs or any other object like table or chair etc. and by using weight. A split is the example of this kind of flexibility. This is also known as static-passive flexibility.

(2) Active flexibility: It is the flexibility which involves motion. It can be classified further in two parts i.e. static flexibility and dynamic flexibility.

(i) Dynamic flexibility: It is also known as kinetic movement. As the name shows it is the ability to perform dynamic or kinetic movements of the muscles to bring a limb through its full range of motion in the joints.

(ii) Static active flexibility: It is the ability to assume and maintain extended positions using only the tension of ageists and synergists. For example: lifting a fall and then keeping it in high position without using an external support.

Question 36.
Give your outlook on participation of Indian women in sports. [5]
Answer:
Participation of Indian women in sports:
For women’s participation in sports, we have a look at ancient period. Regarding participation in the first modern Olympic (1896 Athens), there was no participation of women. Women participated first time in 1900 Olympics. (22 women participated in).ln 1904, only six women participated, and after 100 years of modern Olympics, in 2000 Sydney Olympics, 4069 women had participated. In 2008 Beijing Olympics, 4637 women participated. Participation in India:

(1) In 1984, performance of P.T. Usha was very good in Athletics.
(2) In 2000, Karnam Malleshwari was the first woman who won bronze medal in Sydney Olympic, from India.
(3) In 2012, London Olympics, Saina Nehwal and M.C. Merrycom got bronze medal.
(4) In 2016, Rio Olympics, Sakshi Malik won bronze medal, P.V. Sindhu won silver medal whereas Deepa Karmakar opened new dimensions in gymnastics. Over the past several decades the participation of women in sports field has increased tremendously. But really, it is a matter of regret for all of us to know that sports is such a field where gender inequality in strongly evident.

The general social environment has not only inhibited women from participation in sports, but has also criticized them when they participate. Many people comment for women, “Why don’t they stay in the kitchen where they belong”? But now, time has changed. Women are capable of changing society. Now, the ideology suggests that women are participating in every sphere of life and proving themselves globally.

The fallowing factors are responsible for less participation of women in sports:

Time constraints: Women find less time for sports due to their domestic duties.
Social constraints: The attitude of society towards participation of women in sports is negative.
Lack of sports infrastructure: This is particularly so for infrastructure, exclusively less for women.
Absence of skill: There are very few female coaches available to develop the skills of women. Sociological constraints limit the success of male coaches with female athletes.
Concerns for personal safety: Women are more afraid to venture in a ‘male’ field (perceived) as they are concerned more about safety from harassment or exploitation.
