________ sports regularly require you to produce a lot of force in a short amount of time.
a) mixed
b) high - endurance
c) high - power
d) high - strength

Explanation:

Power in sports is defined as the rate of doing work or the amount of force exerted per unit time. High - power sports, such as sprinting, weightlifting (a form of explosive lifting in some cases), and jumping, require athletes to generate a large amount of force in a short period. For example, a sprinter needs to exert a significant force on the ground in a very short time to accelerate quickly. Mixed sports may have a combination of different physical demands but not specifically focused on force - time in the same way. High - endurance sports (like long - distance running) focus on sustained effort over a long time rather than short - burst force. High - strength sports (like traditional weightlifting for maximum weight) may focus more on the absolute amount of force (strength) rather than the rate (power) at which it is produced.

Answer:

C. High - power
