Which list represents the health-related components of fitness?

• A. Agility, balance, coordination, power, reaction time and speed
• B. Cardiovascular endurance, muscular strength, muscular endurance, flexibility and body composition
• C. Agility, balance, coordination, flexibility and body composition
• D. Cardiovascular endurance, muscular strength, power, reaction time, and speed

Answer: (B)

The main idea is identifying the five components of fitness that relate to overall health and daily function, not sport-specific skills. The health-related components are cardiovascular endurance, muscular strength, muscular endurance, flexibility, and body composition. This set directly reflects how well the body performs everyday activities, carries out metabolic processes, and reduces disease risk.

This list matches that grouping exactly, making it the best choice. The other options mix in skill-related attributes—such as agility, balance, coordination, reaction time, power, and speed—which are important for performance in sports but are not considered health-related components. Some options also omit one or more of the health-related components, so they don’t provide the complete health-focused set.
