Answer 1

Given that Henri has a condition affecting his gross motor coordination but has well-developed fine motor coordination, the most common focus of his physical therapy treatments is likely to be exercises aimed at improving his gross motor coordination. Out of the provided responses, none directly mention coordination. However, the options concerning speed or heart rate may not align with his primary need.

If we had to choose an option, "exercises to increase his speed" might be the closest in terms of improving gross motor skills, as coordination often plays a role in speed and performance in gross motor activities. Nonetheless, it’s important to note that the ideal focus would include specific coordination exercises rather than just speed or heart rate.

So, while not perfect, "exercises to increase his speed" could be the most relevant response if that's the best option available.
