Answer to Question 1

ANS: 4
Resistive isometric exercises are those in which the individual contracts the muscle while pushing against a stationary object or resisting the movement of an object. An example of a resistive iso-metric exercise is pushing against a footboard. Quadriceps setting is an example of an isometric exercise. Gluteal muscle contraction is an example of an isometric exercise. Moving the arms and legs in a circle is an example of isotonic exercise.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 1, 3, 4, 6
Decreased heart and respiratory rates, decreased blood pressure and oxygen consumption, and increased alpha brain activity and peripheral skin temperature characterize the relaxation re-sponse. The remaining options are not typical characteristics of the relaxed state.
