26. Sagittal or Medial plane: The sagittal plane is a vertical plane passing from the rear to the
fronty, dividing the body into left and right halves. It is also known as anteroposterior
plane. Most of the sports and exercise movements that are two dimensional, such as
running, long jumping and somersault take place in this plane.
Transverse or Horizontal plane: The transverse plane divides the body into top and bottom
halves. In fact, it divides the body into upper and lower sections. This plane lies
horizontally that why it is also called horizontal plane. Movements along this plane can
include an ice-skating spin or rotation to play a tennis shot.
27. Warm-up: The physical preparation for a training session is achieved through optimum
warm-up which consists of doing physical exercise in a definite manner for the purpose of
warming of the complete physical and physiological systems of the organism. Warm-up

There are following types of planes:
 1. Sagittal or Medial plane: The sagittal plane is a vertical plane passing from the rear to
the front, dividing the body into left and right halves. It is also known as anterior
posterior plane. Most of the sports and exercise movements that are two dimensional,
such as running, long jumping and somersault take place in this plane.
2. Frontal or Coronal plane: the frontal plane is also vertical and passes from left to right
dividing the body into posterior to anterior halves. It is also known as coronal plane.
Frontal plane cuts the body into front and back. Movements along the frontal plane can
include cartwheel and star jumps.
3. Transverse or Horizontal plane: The transverse plane divides the body into top and
bottom halves. In fact, it divides the body into upper and lower sections. This plane lies
horizontally that why it is also called horizontal plane. Movements along this plane can
include an ice- skating spin or rotation to play a tennis shot.
30. The respiratory system is a body of organs that are involved in the process of breathing
commonly known as respiration. Respiratory system includes various organs starting from
the nose, mouth, trachea, bronchi, lungs etc. that work together for the proper and effective
functioning of the body.
In the process of respiration, we take oxygen (O2) from the environment and give out
carbon dioxide (CO2), a waste product.
Infact, the respiration is a part of a two-fold process as follows:
i. Internal Respiration: It is the process of gas exchange between the blood and the
interstitial fluids surrounding the cells. Inside the cell, cellular respiration generates
energy (ATP) using O2 and glucose and produces CO2.
ii. External Respiration: It is the process of gas exchange between the atmosphere and
the body tissues. In order to accomplish this task, the following events occur
a. Pulmonary Ventilation: It is the process of breathing, i.e. inhalation and expiration.
b. Gas Transport: It is carried out by the cardiovascular system. It is the process of
distributing oxygen throughout the body and collecting carbon dioxide to return it to
the lungs.

Study of anatomy and physiology helps a sport person to understand the structure and
function of different parts of human body and to acquire a fit and healthy body.
ii. Provides knowledge about body structure; on the basis of knowledge of body structure,
a sports person knows about the strength and weakness of his body and accordingly
they can develop forte in the field of game which is suitable for the sports person as per
their body structure.
iii. Helps in selection of games: on the basis of knowledge of body structure, the coach and
player can choose an appropriate sport/ game which is suitable for a particular sport.
Like tall students can be selected for basketball and volleyball. And short and stout
students can be selected for weight lifting.
iv. Protects from sports injuries: on the basis of anatomy, sports equipments are designed
that help in safe play.
v. Helps in the process of rehabilitation: knowledge of ligaments, tendons and muscles
helps in rehabilitation from the injuries sustained during the game or sport.
vi. Helps in maintaining healthy body: study of anatomy and physiology provides detailed
knowledge about all body parts, their nature and functions. This helps the player to
adopt good, safe and healthy use of body.
vii. Helps to know about individual differences: there is a lot of difference between the
body of male and female. The knowledge of anatomy and physiology helps in
 understanding these individual differences. On the basis of these differences, the size of
the court, time of game and equipment are designed differently for male and female
players.
36. Physical Educations teacher: Physical Education forms an important part of the K -12
curriculum. It helps to develop physical abilities and healthy habits in students. Regular
physical exercises prove effective for the overall development of children. Such
Programmes postively impact the life of children with special needs by enhancing their
motor skills, improving self steeem, controlling obesity and encouraging an active
lifestyle. Physical education teacher must find out the abilities of the children with special
needs and adopt necessary measures to support their participation in Physical activities
and improve their overall fitness levels.
i. Conducting physical activity programs help children to cope with anxiety, depression,
and stress. These help in their interaction with other students which increases their self
steem and confidence levels. Such interactivions also enhance their communication
skills and decision-making skills.
ii. Session are conducted with parents and teachers to implement ways to encourage
children with special needs to participate in sports activities.
iii. Physical education teacher need to determine the abilities of students with speical needs
so that to design special sports activities acording to their need.
iv. Speech Fluency/Stuttering
Sluttering is a communication disorder that affects speech fluency. A therapist can teach
the child startegies on how to control behaviour like tension in the neck, showdess,
face, jaw, chest, eye blink, etc. and thus increasing lies speech fluency and
intelligibility.
v. Voice and Resonance
Voice disorders refer to disorders that effect the vocal folds that allow us to have a
voice. These can include vocal cord paralysis, nodales or polypes on vocal folds.
Therapists can work with children to decrease these behaviours (vocal classess) and
repair the strain/damage of the folds.
37. Cognitive aspect of stress: Stress is usually a mental pressure exerted due to fatigue or
excessive work. Constant stress will effect the mind and body. It can lead to physical and
mental problems. Whenever you are stressed beyond a certain point, it can start damaging
your well-being. We call it as cognitive aspect of stress.
1. Inability to concentrate
2. Poor judgement
3. Seeing only negative
 4. Anxiety or racing thoughts or constant worrying.
i. Inability to concentrate: When the mind is having some stress it leads to mental
distraction which reduces the ability to concentrate.
ii. Seeing only negative: It is rightly said that the way we think we become the same.
When our brain focusses on negative things the cognitive development will be full of
criticism.
Three techniques to overcomes stress are:
i. Avoid people who stress you: Limit the amount of time you spend with' that person or
slowly end the relationship entirely.
ii. Manage your time better: Plan the things well in advance and do not overload
yourself. Do not occupy yourself with work as per schedule.

attitude is much better and focus on things that can bring positivity. Positive thinking
brings the stress level down.
iv. Get enough sleep: Adequate amount of rest and sleep fuels your mind as well as your
body. Feeling tired will increase your risk of stress.
