Aerobic exercise uses oxygen to produce energy, while anaerobic exercise does not.
True
Match the type of exercise with its primary benefits:
Aerobic Exercise ↔️ Improves cardiovascular health
Anaerobic Exercise ↔️ Builds strength and muscle mass
Anaerobic exercise does not use oxygen and relies on
carbohydrates
Anaerobic
exercise involves shorter, high-intensity bursts of activity.
True
Running is an example of an
aerobic
activity.
True
What is the duration typically associated with aerobic exercise?
Longer, sustained periods
What are examples of aerobic activities?
Running, swimming, cycling
Aerobic activities are considered aerobic because they meet the key criteria for aerobic
exercise
Aerobic activities primarily use fat and carbohydrates as
fuel
Aerobic exercise involves longer, sustained periods, whereas anaerobic exercise involves shorter, high-intensity
bursts
Aerobic exercise involves continuous movement, elevated heart rate, and utilizes fat and carbohydrates for
fuel
Anaerobic
exercise does not use oxygen to produce energy.
True
Aerobic activities meet the key criteria for aerobic exercise, such as
continuous
movement and moderate intensity.
True
Name three examples of aerobic activities.
Running, swimming, cycling
Aerobic activities are performed at a moderate level of
intensity
.
Aerobic activities involve high oxygen
consumption
.
What is the definition of aerobic exercise?
Uses oxygen for energy
What is the primary fuel used in aerobic exercise?
Fat and carbohydrates
What are examples of aerobic activities?
Running, swimming, cycling
What is the primary fuel used in anaerobic exercise?
Carbohydrates
Why is cycling considered an aerobic activity?
Uses oxygen to produce energy
Anaerobic exercise relies primarily on
carbohydrates
as fuel.
Order the criteria that define aerobic activities:
1️⃣ Continuous movement
2️⃣ Moderate intensity
3️⃣ Elevated heart rate
4️⃣ Fuel utilization
Aerobic activities involve sustained, continuous movement rather than short bursts.
True
Anaerobic activities rely primarily on carbohydrates as
fuel
Order the characteristics of aerobic and anaerobic exercise based on primary fuel usage:
1️⃣ Primary fuel for aerobic exercise: fat and carbohydrates
2️⃣ Primary fuel for anaerobic exercise: carbohydrates
Aerobic exercise improves cardiovascular health, burns fat, and enhances
endurance
Running, swimming, and cycling are examples of
aerobic
activities.
True
Anaerobic exercise relies primarily on carbohydrates as
fuel
What are aerobic activities defined by?
Use of oxygen
Aerobic
activities use oxygen to produce energy.
True
Why is elevated heart rate important during aerobic exercise?
Improves cardiovascular fitness
What are two benefits of aerobic exercise?
Improves cardiovascular health, burns fat
Anaerobic activities involve short bursts of high
intensity
.
What are two benefits of anaerobic exercise?
Builds strength, increases muscle mass
Aerobic exercise uses oxygen to produce
energy
Aerobic exercise involves longer, sustained periods of
movement
Swimming is an example of an
aerobic
activity.
True
Order the characteristics of anaerobic exercise by their relevance:
1️⃣ Short, high-intensity bursts
2️⃣ Limited oxygen use
3️⃣ Relies on carbohydrates
Aerobic exercise involves high oxygen
consumption
