Q1. Explain the procedure of measuring Somato Types in brief.
Ans. Somatotypes means human body shape and physique types. Somatotypes helps the physical education and sports teaches to classify the students for particular sports and games on the basis of physical, mental and practical aspects.

The procedure of measuring somatotypes is based on the classification by W.H. SHELDON.

1. Endomorphy— Such individuals have short arms and legs and rounded physique. The upper parts of arms and legs are significantly thicker than the lower parts. Their excessive mass hinders their ability to compete in sports.

2. Mesomorphy— Such individuals have balanced body compositions and athletic physique. They are able to increase their muscle size quickly and easily and have a rectangular shaped body. Their chest and shoulders are broader in comparison to their waistline.

Procedure for weight measurement -
1. The subject must wear light clothes.
2. He should stand in the center of the platform of the weighing machine with his body weight equally distributed on both the feet.

 3. Read the measurement in front of the needle and record it to the nearest 0.1 kg.

Q7. Explain in brief the procedure of Anthropometric measurement of height?
Ans. The child or adult should remove socks, shoes, jackets or any other heavy clothing. The floor surface should be plain and hard. The height should be measured using a stadiometer.

Procedure for height measurement -
 1. The subject should stand with his feet flat and together on the floor. Arms should be by the sides and knees and back should be straight. The back of the head, buttocks, calves, heels and shoulder blades should touch the measuring surface.
 2. After that, the horizontal sliding part of the stadiometers lowered gently so that hairs get pressed flat and the subject should be asked to stand still.

3. The height of the subject should be read to the nearest half in centimeter and recorded.

Q1. Explain in detail the importance of Test and Measurement and Evaluation in the field of games and sports?
Ans. In the field of games of sports programme. It is important to select a target. If a person desires to improve himself in different aspects of fitness. He will have to undergo fitness programmes.
Test, Measurement & evaluation in physical education are the devices that are needed to collect the details regarding the needs, abilities, and altitudes of a sports person.
A test is basically a situational presentation, where specific responses are collected from the subject. These responses are measured both qualitatively and quantitatively.

Q.3 Explain the procedure for fixing marks for skinfold measurement.
Ans. The marking of skinfold measurement should be proper for taking accurate anthropometric measurements should be proper for taking accurate anthropometric measurements. So, for proper marking of skinfold measurements, the following procedures should be taken into consideration.

1. Triceps skinfold - The child or adult must stand up straight with arms relaxed. With the help of a measuring tape mark a point with a pen at the center of triceps. This is the point or mark from where the skinfold measurement should be done with the help of a skinfold caliper.

2. Sub Scapula Skinfold - Find out the exact location of a scapula. The skin fold area is just below the inferior angle of the scapula.
 Skinfold measurement should be done with the help of skin fold calipers.

3. Suprailiac skinfold - The intersection of a line joining the spinal and front part of armpit and a horizontal line at the level of iliac crest can be marked for skinfold measurement.

4. Abdomen skinfold -The abdomen muscles of the subject must be relaxed. He may be asked to hold the breath if any movement interferes the process of measurement.
 A point should be marked 3cm to the right and 1 cm below the midpoint of the umbilicus.

5. Thigh skinfold - The child or adult whose measurement is to be taken must sit on a chair with his back completely straight. Now mark a point exactly between the kneecap and the inguinal crease on the thigh for skinfold measurement.

Q4. Explain the procedure of skinfold measurement in detail.
Ans. Skinfold measurements are also called "fat foid thickness". These measurements provide the information or data of the thickness of double folds of the skin and subcutaneous adipose tissue at specific sites of the body. In simple words, skinfold provides information about general fatness of the body.
 The procedure of skinfold measurements is as under -

1. The arm of the subject or child should be hung loosely. Stand behind the subject and pull the vertical skinfold about 1/2 inch from the spot already marked. Keep the skinfold caliper perpendicular to the length of the fold centering the mark. Record the measurement to the nearest millimeter.

2. Sub scapula skinfold - After locating the marked point on the subscapular region, pull a skin fold for about 34 inches above and keep the skin fold caliper perpendicular to the length of skinfold. Release the capillary and note the measurement to the nearest millimeter.

3. Suprailiac skinfold -The subject should stand straight with his feet together and arms relaxed.
 Pull a skinfold 34 inch above the marked point with the thumb and index finger. The skinfold caliper should be kept perpendicular to the length of the skin fold. Release the caliper and note the reading on the dial to the nearest of a millimeter and record it.

4. Abdomen skinfold - After locating the already marked point, pull a horizontal skinfold to about 34 inches. Place the skinfold caliper perpendicular to the length of skinfold. Release the caliper and note the reading the nearest of a millimeter and record it.

5. Thigh skinfold - The person is made to stand with his weight on the left leg and right leg forward with knee slightly bent. Grip a skinfold on the already marked area on the mid-thigh. Place the skinfold caliper and note the reading to the nearest of a millimeter and record it.
