Answer:

Positive inotropic effect means that it increases the contraction force of the heart, reducing the intracellular calcium level of the myocardium.

Explanation:

    Inotropism is a health science term to refer to the contraction capacity of the cardiac (myocardial) muscles. Inotropic action influences contractile force, velocity of  myocardial pressure development and ejection velocity.

  • Negative inotropic effect means contraction force decreases or decreases cardiac output
  • Positive inotropic effect means that it increases the contraction force of the heart, reducing the intracellular calcium level of the myocardium.

Positive chronotropic action increases

  • heart rate - tachycardia;
  • cardiac contraction force, both  atrio and ventricles);
  • conduction velocity in the atrioventricular node.

Give an example of how someone may be misjudged about their athletic ability due to diversity in sports (age, ethnicity, gender
Semmy [17]
If you're very young or very old you could be misjudged for not being as capable as somebody in their 20s for example. While this may often be true it is not always and isn't something we should strive towards. 
If you're of a certain ethnicity; let's say you're a Kenyan and you're running a marathon, people could misjudge that you would run the marathon at a very good pace. This, again, is not the necessary case. 
If you're female, it is often possible that you would be misjudged as not being strong enough compared to your male counterparts.
