Sulforaphane, a cancer-preventing compound found in broccoli, helps cells defend themselves for days against highly reactive and

toxic molecules called oxidants. Unlike standard antioxidants that use the molecular equivalent of hand-to-hand combat, the sulforaphane works indirectly by enabling cells to create a diverse group of enzymes. These "phase 2" enzymes protect against cancer by blocking select chemicals from becoming carcinogens. Research shows that these enzymes have the ability to detoxify oxidants, which increases their value in disease prevention. Which one of the following can be properly inferred from the passage? (A) A diet composed largely of fruits and vegetables will help to prevent cancer. (B) Sulforaphane is essential to preventing all kinds of cancer. (C) Sulforaphane requires energy to create an army of cancer-protecting enzymes (D) At least some cancer is caused from some chemicals that are stimulated to transform and become a carcinogen. (E) A diet deficient in antioxidants is a common cause of cancer.

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

           

Explanation:

Soccer -- aerobic

Wall sits -- anaerobic

Max lift bench press -- strength

Jogging -- aerobic

Sprinting -- anaerobic

Stretching -- flexibility

Planks -- both strength and endurance

Basketball -- aerobic

Squats -- anaerobic

Speed walking -- aerobic

Sit-ups -- anaerobic

Yoga -- flexibility

Swimming -- aerobic

Aerobic fitness -- it is an ability for our bodies to transport and use the oxygen, in order to produce the energy we need for our muscles. During aerobic fitness, our heart rate and breathing increase for some period of time.

Anaerobic fitness -- oxygen is not used. Compared to the aerobic fitness, it is more quick, more energy is used, and the maximum effort is performed, and it lasts shorter than aerobic fitness.

Flexibility  -- it includes stretching, yoga, Tai-Chi. It is good because it lengthens our muscles. It increases physical and mental relaxation, it prevents our bodies from injuries, reduces soreness.

Muscular strength -- it's occurring in a short period of time and the maximum of our strength is used. By definition, it is the amount of force a single muscle can produce with a single MAXIMAL effort.

Muscular endurance --  the word says it itself -- how much we can endure.

Compared to the strength, which is manifested in a short amount of time, but used to its maximum, in this type of exercise we are more focused on the enduring. It is muscle's ability to endure repeated action against a resistance for a certain amount of time.
