Question

Identify several factors in the environment that can affect physical fitness levels. ctivity

Answer 1

Answer: Weather/climate, land elevation, conditions or probability of certain storms (such as flooding) to occur, amount of rainwater, area, etc...

Explanation: Weather and climate can truly affect physical activity, since going outside might not be an option during a storm such as a blizzard. Land elevation is also known to deplete physical activity, but also increase it. While you can’t play sports such as volleyball on a steep path, hiking mountains/hills are common (mountains and hills are very high in elevation). Another factor to consider is the likelihood that an area will have a certain natural hazard. Take the central U.S for example. In the mid-part of the U.S, Tornadoes are quite common and deadly, and the more frequent a hazard has occurred, the higher chance that same hazard would happen in the future if given the same conditions. Lastly, area is also a very big factor as to where physical activity takes place! In a cafe, it is rare to do sports in there than the gym. Take consideration of the locations and events that are occurring in time of place. I hope this helped answer your question!
