Physical Education Question 2:
The prorogation of nerve impulse from one node of Ranvier to other is called
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Physical Education Question 2 Detailed Solution
A nerve impulse is a rapid electrochemical signal that travels along the axon of a neuron, initiated by a change in the neuron's membrane potential and propagated by the opening and closing of ion channels.
Key Points
- The prorogation of nerve impulse from one node of Ranvier to another is called saltatory conduction.
- This is a rapid process by which nerve impulses travel along myelinated axons, jumping from one node of Ranvier to the next.
- The myelin sheath acts as an insulator, preventing the leakage of ions and allowing for more efficient propagation of the electrical signal.
- As a result, saltatory conduction is much faster than conduction in unmyelinated axons, which rely on continuous conduction.
Additional Information
- Reflex conduction is the rapid and automatic movement of impulses along specific pathways in response to a stimulus, mediated by spinal reflexes and allowing for quick, protective responses.
- Referral conduction is the phenomenon where pain or discomfort is perceived in a different location than the source of the stimulus, due to the convergence of nerve fibers from different regions onto the same spinal cord segment.
- Spatial summation is the process by which multiple presynaptic neurons release neurotransmitters onto a single postsynaptic neuron, resulting in the summation of their effects and potentially triggering an action potential in the postsynaptic neuron.

Physical Education Question 9 Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFConcept :
- The skeletal system functions as the main framework of the body.
- It is the combination of all the bones and tissues associated with cartilages and joints.
- Joints play an important role in the skeletal system as it allows different types of movement at different locations.
- If the skeleton is without joints, then there would be no movement in the human body.
- The skeletal system is divided into axial and appendicular systems.
- An adult body consists of 206 bones
Axial skeleton :
- It runs along the body's central axis and composed of 80 bones and consists of
- Skullbone, Thoracic cage, and Vertebral column
Appendicular skeleton :
- The appendicular skeleton is composed of 126 bones and consists of :
- Pelvic girdle, Upper limbs, Lower limbs, Pectoral girdle
Fig: Human skeletal system
Explanation :
- A joint is a connection that occurs between the bones in the skeletal system.
- The joints provide the means for movement.
- The joints help us to rotate our shoulders, bend our knees and elbows, and move our neck.
Ball and socket joint :
- This type of joint helps in rotatory movement.
- One bone is hooked into the hollow space of another bone.
- Examples: shoulders
Pivotal joints :
- This type of joint in sideways and back forth movement.
- One bone has tapped into the other in such a way that full rotation is not possible.
- Example: Pivotal joint in the neck
Hinge joints :
- Hinge joints are like hinges in the door, where only back and forth movement is possible.
- Examples are ankle, elbows, and knee joints.
Fixed joints :
- In this type of joint bones are fused together in such a way that they are anchored to the component, mostly to form a fixed structure. Examples are the skull and upper jaw.
So, the correct answer is option(1)
Additional InformationGliding joint :
- This joint allows two or more round or flat bones to freely move or slide together without rubbing.
- Examples are the wrist, palm, ankle, and sole
Saddle joint :
- This type of joint does not allow rotation, it does not allow for back and forth movement as well as side to side movement.
- Examples: Thumb

The digestive juices present in the stomach helps to digest _______.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Physical Education Question 11 Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFThe correct answer is Proteins only.
Key Points
- The digestive system is made up of the gastrointestinal tract also called the GI tract or digestive tract and the liver, pancreas, and gallbladder.
- The gastric juice has an ionic strength of approx 100 mM and contains pepsin and gastric lipase.
- Due to the action of pepsin, proteins are partially digested in the stomach, (although some proteins are resistant to pepsin action).
Additional Information
- Stomach:
- The upper muscle in the stomach relaxes to let food enter, and the lower muscle mixes food with digestive juice.
- Glands in your stomach lining make stomach acid and enzymes that break down food.
- Muscles of your stomach mix the food with these digestive juices.
- As the bolus of food travels through the oesophagus to the stomach, no significant digestion of carbohydrates takes place.
- The oesophagus produces no digestive enzymes but does produce mucous for lubrication.
Important Points
- The acidic environment in the stomach stops the action of the amylase enzyme.
- Pepsin secreted by the stomach and trypsin and chymotrypsin secreted by the pancreas, break down food proteins into polypeptides that are then broken down by various exopeptidases and dipeptidases into amino acids.
Which of the following is not related with cognitive domain ?
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Physical Education Question 12 Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFB.S. Bloom has proposed a taxonomy which is a set of three hierarchical models that refers to the classification of educational learning objectives.
Bloom's Taxonomy Identified Three Domains of Learning:
- Cognitive Domain: It involves knowledge and the development of intellectual skills.
- Affective Domain: It includes how we deal with things emotionally, such as feelings, values, appreciation, etc.
- Psychomotor Domain: It includes physical movement, coordination, and use of the motor-skill areas.
Important Points
The cognitive domain involves mental skills which are categorized into six levels of learning that serve in the development of intellectual skills and acquisition power.
The cognitive domains as per Bloom's taxonomy:
- Remember: Retrieving the relevant knowledge from long-term memory.
- Understand: Construct meaning from instructional messages, including oral, written, and graphic communication.
- Apply: Carry out or use a procedure in a given situation.
- Analyze: Break material into its constituent parts and determine how the parts relate to one another and to an overall structure or purpose.
- Evaluate: Make judgments based on criteria or standards.
- Create: Put elements together to form a coherent or functional whole; reorganizing elements into a new pattern or structure.
Hint
NOTE: Valuing is related to affective domain and it refers to the acceptance of behavior and commitment to it. One values certain behaviors not by desires but by commitment.
Hence, it could be concluded that valuing is not related with the cognitive domain.
