Non locomotor skills are movements of the body while it remains in one place; for example, stretching. Is this statement true or false?

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Nurture
• D. Nature

Answer: (A)

Non-locomotor skills involve movements of the body while staying in one place. Stretching fits this category because you perform the movement without changing your location, focusing on posture, flexibility, and range of motion. This is different from locomotor skills, which involve moving through space like running or jumping. The statement is true for that reason. Terms like nurture or nature aren’t about movement classification and don’t describe whether a movement is in-place or through space.
