7. What does somatosensory system do for balance?: Provides information on position and motion of body and body parts
relative to each other and the support surface (through muscle proprioceptors, golgi tendon organs, joint receptors, and skin mechanoreceptors)
8. What does vestibular system do for balance?: Provides information about position and movement of head with
respect to gravity and inertial forces through receptors in semicircular canals, and motor pathways
9. Types of Balance Control: - static (maintain a stable anti-gravity position while at rest)
- dynamic (to stabilize body when support surface is moving or when body is moving on-a. Stable surface such as sit to stand transfers or walking)
- automatic (automatic postural reactions to maintain balance in response to unexpected external stimuli such as standing on bus that is moving)
10. definition of feedforward: responses made in anticipation of a change that is too fast for sensory
input
11. Definition of anticipatory control: Responses made in intoxication of planned movements such as person planing to
pull on handle etc.
12. Definition of closed loop control: For precision movements that require sensory feedback (maintaining balance
while standing on beam for example)
13. Aerobic vs. Anaerobic: Aerobic means "with oxygen," and anaerobic means "without oxygen."
