This statement is true. Reaction
time is a skill-related fitness component that refers to the ability of the
body to react to external stimuli and make quick decisions on what to do with
those stimuli. A good example of this is when your hand accidentally touches
the fire of a burning candle. Motor neurons send signals to the brain that
trigger a response where you suddenly remove your hand from the source of pain.
For exercise activities, reaction time is seen in athletes who are waiting for
the gun start.
