Kinesiology Right Ans - study of movement
Kinesiology is a mix of: Right Ans - Anatomy, Physiology, and Biomechanics
Biomechanics can be broken down into: Right Ans - Statics (stillness) and
Dynamics (moving)
Stillness Right Ans - Balanced and not moving
Moving Right Ans - Unbalanced and moving
Statics Right Ans - deals with aspects of non moving or virtually non
moving systems
Term for how the mechanical principals are used in motion Right Ans -
Biomechanics
Dynamics Right Ans - applies to aspects of moving system
Dynamics can be divided into: Right Ans - kinetics and kinematics
Kinetics Right Ans - studies forces (gravity, friction, and pressure) that act
on the body to generate or alter motion
Kinematics Right Ans - analysis of movement in terms of mechanical
elements (ie time and space)
In the "dance troupe" of human movement, what are the four "prima
ballerinas? Right Ans - Mobility, Stability, Balance, and coordination
mobility Right Ans - the ability to move (obvious and expressive aspect of
motion)
stability Right Ans - the ability to be firmly fixed or supported by using
joints and myofascial units
