The skeleton
1. Close all references and look back over this worksheet.
Label the diagram below by writing the name of the bone at the end of the leader lines. Select two
different colours, one for the axial skeleton and one for the appendicular skeleton, and use them to
colour the coding circles and the corresponding structures in the diagram.

Term
99% of the store of this mineral is found in bone – it keeps
bone hard and strong.
The shaft of a long bone.
A connective tissue found in the spaces inside bone that is
the site of blood cell production and fat storage.
A thin layer of glassy-smooth substance that covers the end
of long bones to prevent friction and wear and tear.
A fibrous protein with great strength that is the main
component of bone.
The end portion of a long bone that flares out.
Also called the epiphyseal plate, this is the area of growing
bone found in children and adolescents; it can be easily
injured.

The role of muscular contraction
1. Complete the sentences below by filling in the missing information using the words listed.
isotonic
isometric
shortening
stops
controls
concentric
lengthening
When there is no movement of a joint when tension is developed in a muscle, this is called
contraction, which
joint movement.
contraction of a muscle results in the muscle producing joint movement. There are two
types:
contraction causes joint movement and involves the muscle
developing tension. Eccentric contraction
muscle
while
joint movement and involves the
while developing tension.
2. Using the sit-up as an example, describe in your own words the type of muscular contraction
occurring in the rectus abdominis during:
(i) the upward phase and (ii) downward phase.
(i) Upward phase
(ii) Downward phase

3. To look after their potential elite performers, individual governing bodies have devised models for
long-term athletic development (LTAD). Research an LTAD model for a governing body of your
choice and outline the main
objectives and guidelines below.
