Question 13

To maintain safety in physical education, ignoring safety equipment (A) is unsafe. Taking risks (C) and only considering safety in competitive settings (D) are also not safe practices. Applying known safe practices (B) is the correct way to ensure safety.

Drinking only sports drinks (A) is not necessary; water is sufficient. Avoiding fluid intake (B) causes dehydration. Relying on thirst (D) is not reliable as thirst lags behind dehydration. Staying hydrated with water before, during, and after exercise (C) is the correct safety protocol.

Mandated by school policies (A) does not make it enjoyable. Passing time without purpose (C) is not a reason for enjoyment. Being only enjoyable for competitive athletes (D) is false. Physical activities are enjoyable because they offer personal challenge and social interaction (B).

Answer:

B. Applying known safe practices
