The tissue through which gases are exchanged between the blood and the air in the
lungs is - COrrECT ANSWEr-simple squamous epithelium
Body heat is lost primarily by - COrrECT ANSWEr-radiation
Bone cells form concentric circles around longitudinal tubes called - COrrECT ANSWEr-
central canals
A body has been sectioned in such a way that there is one whole lung per section and
the urinary bladder has been split in half. What type of section is this? - COrrECT
ANSWEr-sagittal
Which type of tissue lines the follicles of the thyroid glands? - COrrECT ANSWEr-simple
cuboidal epithelium
The anaerobic reactions of cellular respiration take place in the - COrrECT ANSWEr-
cytoplasm
Which action is the main function of the digestive system? - COrrECT ANSWEr-
absorption of nutrients
A cell is surrounded by an extremely thin, flexible membrane. Why is the membrane
selectively permeable? - COrrECT ANSWEr-It allows some substances to pass through
and excludes others based on size, polarity, and other factors.
,What type of tissue is adipose tissue? - COrrECT ANSWEr-connective tissue
The human integumentary system includes - COrrECT ANSWEr-skin, nails, hair follicles,
and sweat glands
DNA and RNA differ in that - COrrECT ANSWEr-DNA holds genetic information and RNA
uses that information to synthesize protein.
Maintaining a stable internal environment typically requires - COrrECT ANSWEr-negative
feedback mechanism
Transcription and translation differ in that - COrrECT ANSWEr-transcription produces
RNA and translation produces protein.
Endoplasmic reticulum is best described as a - COrrECT ANSWEr-network of
interconnected membranes
The major blood vessels that supply the skin are in the - COrrECT ANSWEr-dermis
Matter is composed of elements, which are composed of __________. - COrrECT
ANSWEr-atoms
For which of the following organelles are the structure and function correctly described?
- COrrECT ANSWEr-Endoplasmic reticulum—a network of interconnected membranes
forming sacs and canals that packages protein molecules for secretion
Which of the following are cellular fragments? - COrrECT ANSWEr-blood platelets
Homeostasis exists if concentrations of water, nutrients, and oxygen in the body are
balanced and heat and pressure __________. - COrrECT ANSWEr-remain within certain
limited ranges
, An isotonic solution - COrrECT ANSWEr-has the same osmotic pressure as the cells in
the solution
Which of the following characteristics of life and their descriptions is correct? - COrrECT
ANSWEr-Circulation—the movement of substances in body fluids
Which of the following characteristics is used to name tissue types? - COrrECT ANSWEr-
organization of cells
The isotope most likely to be used to study the thyroid gland is - COrrECT ANSWEr-
iodine-131
The type of epithelium that lines the urinary bladder and many of the urinary
passageways is - COrrECT ANSWEr-transitional
ATP is important to cellular processes because it - COrrECT ANSWEr-provides energy for
cellular work when the terminal, high-energy bond is broken.
In phagocytosis - COrrECT ANSWEr-a cell membrane engulfs solid particles.
Anatomy and physiology are difficult to separate because - COrrECT ANSWEr-
physiological functions depend on anatomical structures.
A burn affecting only the epidermis is a - COrrECT ANSWEr-superficial partial-thickness
burn
In treating a burn patient, the "rule of nines" is used to estimate the - COrrECT ANSWEr-
surface area of the burn.
Simple squamous epithelium is an example of a(n) - COrrECT ANSWEr-tissue
