Which energy system is the primary one for short-term, high-intensity activity?
  1. Oxidative system
  2. Glycolysis system
  3. Phosphagen system
  4. Metabolic system
Explanation
Answer: C - The phosphagen system is the primary one for short-term, high-intensity activity. This is also part of the initial part of all exercise, regardless of intensity, but it is then replaced by another more appropriate form of energy production specific to the type of activity and length of participation in the activity.
