d. to reduce the risk of injury and enhance performance

why is recovery important after physical exertion?
a. to build muscle mass
b. to allow tissue repair and prevent overuse injuries
c. to increase endurance
d. to enhance flexibility

Explanation:

• For the first question: Using proper technique in sports is mainly about reducing injury risk and improving performance. Options a (increasing difficulty) and b (slowing game pace) are not typical purposes. Option c (making activities easier) is too simplistic compared to the comprehensive goal of d.
• For the second question: Recovery after physical exertion is crucial for tissue repair and preventing overuse injuries. Option a (building muscle mass) is more related to exercise itself. Option c (increasing endurance) and d (enhancing flexibility) are not the primary reasons for recovery like b.

Answer:

d. To reduce the risk of injury and enhance performance
b. To allow tissue repair and prevent overuse injuries
