Health Test

  Last Tuesday on January 14, we wrote the health muscle test. We usually are given all class to complete the test. Past tests in Health have included True or False, Fill in the Blanks, and several Short Answer questions on the topic. For the test, we also had to identify and label the skeletal muscles in the human body and describe their functions. You might have brought pencil crayons just in case, as she had told me that we would have to locate where the specific muscles are on the diagram as well. Because we do not have health class too often, we have not learned a lot of information to study for this test.

  This test does not cover a lot of material. For the test, we had only been given a page of notes and a diagram to memorize and understand. From the diagram, we should have known the general area of where the muscles cover, their opposing muscles (eg. the biceps' would be your triceps), and a brief description of what they do to help you move. You also should have understood the difference between voluntary and involuntary muscles, been able to describe what skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscles are and been able to contrast them from each other, known the brief description of what a muscle is, and have been able to identify what kind of muscle a given example would have been. As long as you had reviewed the material within the week-long period we were provided with (8 nights to be exact), you should have done fairly well on this test and have been confident with your answers.
