Principles of Functional Exercise

CHAPTER 6

1. Match the activity with its most prevalent sensory receptors
   A. Mechanoreceptors picking up a can of beer
   B. Nociceptors cars headlights
   C. Chemoreceptors flash bulb
   D. Photoreceptors getting hit with a baseball
   eating a ice cream sundae
   getting kicked in the face


2. When excited, the Golgi tendon organ will cause the muscle to contract.
   A. True
   B. False


3. The cerebral cortex is responsible for controlling several major autonomic functions of the
   body, including respiration and circulation.
   A. True
   B. False


4. The Somatic Nervous System is most involved with producing muscle
   contractions during exercise?
   A. True
   B. False


5. The following information about sensory receptors and the stimuli they each respond to
   is accurate.
   Mechanoreceptors – touch and pressure
   Nociceptors – pain
   Chemoreceptors – smell and taste
   Photoreceptors – Vision
