Correct answer: (C) Psychomotor domain — Hitting the football with the head is a physical skill, so it falls in the psychomotor domain.
Explanation
★Hitting the football with the head is a physical skill, so it falls in the psychomotor domain.
★The psychomotor domain covers objectives of bodily movement and physical skill.
★Striking a ball with the head is exactly such a coordinated physical action.
★The affective domain covers feelings, attitudes and values, not physical movement.
★The cognitive domain covers knowing and thinking, again not a bodily skill.
★Since the objective is a physical action, it belongs to the psychomotor domain.
