Name
MULTIPLE CHOICE. Choose the one alternative that best completes the statement or answers the question.
1) A person in the anatomical position is visualized to be: 1) A) sitting down. B) standing upright.
C) laying down on his or her back. D) laying down on the stomach.
Answer: B
Diff: 0 Type: MC
2) In the anatomical position, the palms are on the: 2)
A) posterior (dorsal) surface. B) lateral surface.
C) superior (cranial) surface. D) anterior (ventral) surface.
Answer: D
Diff: 0 Type: MC
ESSAY. Write your answer in the space provided or on a separate sheet of paper.
3) Define homeostasis and homeostatic imbalance.
Answer: Homeostasis is maintenance of the body's internal environment. Disturbances in homeostasis, known as
homeostatic imbalances, can result in disease or death if uncorrected.
Diff: 0 Type: ES
TRUE/FALSE. Write 'T' if the statement is true and 'F' if the statement is false.
4) According to the principle of complementarity of structure and function, structure and function are 4) related only
at the cellular level.
Answer: True False
Diff: 0 Type: TF
MULTIPLE CHOICE. Choose the one alternative that best completes the statement or answers the question.
5) Which organ system includes blood vessels and the heart? 5)
A) endocrine system B) lymphatic system C) cardiovascular system D) respiratory system
Answer: C
Diff: 0 Type: MC
6) In laboratory, you will study the overall structure and shape of the femur bone without the aid of a 6) microscope.
This is a study known as:
A) gross anatomy. B) systemic anatomy.
C) microscopic anatomy. D) regional anatomy.
Answer: A
Diff: 0 Type: MC
7) When you go outside on a hot summer day, your body temperature heats up above the normal 7) range. Receptors
in your brain detect the change in body temperature. The brain activates nerve cells that send messages to sweat
glands, causing the body temperature to fall as the sweat evaporates from the skin. What part of this feedback loop is
the effector?
A) nerve cells B) brain
C) sweat glands D) increased body temperature
