,BIOD151 Essential Human Anatomy & Physiology
Section 1: Multiple Choice Questions
1. An anatomical term used to indicate the front of the body is:
● A. Dorsal
● B. Superior
● C. Ventral
● D. Inferior
Correct Answer: C. Ventral
Rationale: Ventral (also known as anterior) indicates the front of the
body or "belly" side, whereas dorsal (posterior) indicates the back.
2. A plane that divides the body into superior and inferior sections is known as
the:
● A. Frontal Plane
● B. Transverse Plane
● C. Sagittal Plane
1 | 34
, ● D. Coronal Plane
Correct Answer: B. Transverse Plane
Rationale: The transverse or horizontal plane cuts horizontally through
the body, separating the top (superior) from the bottom (inferior).
3. Which organelle is responsible for altering the structures of proteins and
lipids and then shipping them to other parts of the cell?
● A. Mitochondria
● B. Rough ER
● C. Golgi complex
● D. Lysosomes
Correct Answer: C. Golgi complex
Rationale: The Golgi complex receives synthesized products from the
endoplasmic reticulum (ER), modifies them, and packages them for
transport.

, 4. If a cell is placed in a solution and begins to shrink, the solution is described
as:
● A. Isotonic
● B. Hypotonic
● C. Hypertonic
● D. Metabolic
Correct Answer: C. Hypertonic
Rationale: In a hypertonic solution, the solute concentration outside the
cell is higher than inside, causing water to leave the cell via osmosis and
leading to shrinkage.
5. Which of the following is true regarding the anatomy of the human lungs?
● A. The right lung has 2 lobes.
● B. The left lung has 3 lobes.
● C. The left lung has 2 lobes.
● D. Both lungs have 3 lobes.
