NLN ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY EXAMS WITH
VERIFICATION QUESTIONS AND CORRECT ANSWER
2026\2027
accessory organs
correct Liver, Gallbladder, Pancreas
answer
aerobic respiration
correct answer cellular respiration that uses oxygen, sequentially releasing energy and storing it
in
ATP
begins in cytoplasm--ends in mitochondria
alimentary canal
- CORRECT ANSWER -a long, muscular tube that begins at teh mouth and includes the
mouth, pharynx, esophagus, stomcah, small intestine, large intestine, and anus
alveolus
- CORRECT ANSWER -tiny air sac at the end of a bronchiole in the lungs that provides
surface area for gas exchange to occur
amalyse
- CORRECT ANSWER -saliva contains this enzyme; begins the process of chemical digestion
by breaking down starches
(carbohydrates--glucose)
anaerobic respiration
- CORRECT ANSWER -less efficient, produce less ATP produces lactic acid
aorta
correct The largest artery in the body; it conducts freshly oxygenated blood from the heart
answer
to the tissues.
, atrioventricular valve
- CORRECT ANSWER -A valve in the heart between each atrium and ventricle that prevents
a backflow of blood when the ventricles contract.
bile
correct a digestive juice secreted by the liver and stored in the gallbladder--breaks down
answer
fats
Blood
correct -connective tissue
answer
-variety of cells suspended in liquid (plasmid)
45% CELLS (red cells, white cells, platelets)
55%PLASMID (proteins, ions, hormones, gases)
bronchi
correct The passages that branch from the trachea and direct air into the lungs
answer
capillaries
correct tiny blood vessels--connect arteries and veins--where materials enter and leave
answer
blood
cardiovascular system
- CORRECT ANSWER -the body system that consists of the heart, blood vessels, and blood,
and that carries needed substances to cells and carries waste products away from cells
cellular respiration
- CORRECT ANSWER -the metabolic processes whereby certain organisms obtain energy
from organic moelcules
aerobic or anareobic
chemical digestion
- CORRECT ANSWER -the digestion process in which enzymes are used to break foods into their
smaller chemical buiding blocks
chyme
- CORRECT ANSWER -mixture of stomach fluids and food produced in the stomach by contracting
stomach muscles
circulation
