AlekseyPX

An example of this is the gun start that is commonly used in athletic competitions where a person reacts quickly to the signal and performs the activity. As we age, our sensory systems deteriorate and as a result some of the skills we have when we were younger are not as effective as it was when we turned into mature adults. </span></span></span>
