Question 7 (1 point) Boxers who do not wear gloves when they spar(fight) in order to do not have reduce the impact force of their punches. Without gloves the impact is not reduced because __ the time of impact is decreased The momentum is increased the time of impact is increased It is a fashion accessory

## Step 1<br />The problem is asking us to identify the reason why boxers do not wear gloves when they spar. The options provided are:<br />- The time of impact is decreased<br />- The momentum is increased<br />- The time of impact is increased<br />- It is a fashion accessory<br /><br />## Step 2<br />The first option, "The time of impact is decreased", is not correct because the time of impact is not decreased by not wearing gloves.<br /><br />## Step 3<br />The second option, "The momentum is increased", is also not correct because the momentum of a punch is not directly related to whether gloves are worn or not.<br /><br />## Step 4<br />The third option, "The time of impact is increased", is correct. When gloves are worn, they act as a cushion, increasing the time of impact and thus reducing the force of the punch. Without gloves, the time of impact is decreased, which increases the force of the punch.<br /><br />## Step 5<br />The fourth option, "It is a fashion accessory", is not correct because the primary purpose of gloves in boxing is not fashion but to protect the hands and reduce the impact of punches.
