sports demand more from the body. which sport does not require a high level
of physical fitness?

b. rock climbing

c. dog sledding

d. free diving

Explanation:

To determine which sport does not require a high level of physical fitness, we analyze each option:

• Sky diving: Requires physical fitness for proper body control, parachute handling, and dealing with G - forces and the physical stress of landing.
• Rock climbing: Demands significant strength (especially in the upper body and core), endurance, and flexibility to scale rocks.
• Dog sledding: While it has some physical aspects, the main work is done by the dogs. The musher's physical exertion is relatively less compared to the other sports here.
• Free diving: Needs excellent cardiovascular fitness, breath - holding ability, and muscular control to withstand pressure and stay underwater.

Among these, dog sledding has relatively lower physical fitness requirements as the dogs do most of the work related to moving the sled.

Answer:

C. Dog sledding
