QUESTION 3
What is false about the flexor withdrawal reflex? a.) It does not involve interneurons b.) It
involves excitatory interneurons c.) It involves inhibitory interneurons d.) the effect of the reflex is
to create a co-contraction of two muscles. e.) a&d f.) b&c
Answer: E.) a&d a.) It does not involve interneurons d.) the effect of the reflex is to create a co-contraction of two
muscles.
QUESTION 4
Describe the function of the brain ventricles.
Answer: Brain ventricles are cavities that are filled with cerebrospinal fluid or CSF. CSF is only present within the CNS,
brain and spinal cord. CSF is important for the central nervous system because it provides buoyancy for the brain, which
is a form of protection.
QUESTION 5
Fill in the blank: In a reflex, the ____________ neuron conducts nerve impulses along a pathway
to create a response.
Answer: Motor (Efferent)
QUESTION 6
The ________ is controlled by the trochlear nerve. a.) Superior rectus b.) Medial rectus c.)
Lateral rectus d.) Superior oblique
Answer: D.) Superior Oblique.
QUESTION 7
The ovarian follicle becomes the ____________ after ovulation.
Answer: Corpus Leteum.

QUESTION 8
Describe the purpose of the cervix prior to ovulation.
Answer: Prior to ovulation, the cervix swells, softens, and secretes a mucous that allows for the sperm to have an easier
access for fertizilation.
QUESTION 9
The protein buffer system:
a.) generally takes several hours to respond. b.) causes hyperventilation in the respiratory system.
c.) is the main buffer system of the interstitial fluid. d.) is the main buffer system of the
intracellular fluid e.) all the above are true of the protein buffer system
Answer: D.) is the main buffer system of the intracellular fluid.
QUESTION 10
What is the correct order of blood flow starting from the heart? a.) Artery → arteriole →
capillary → venule → vein b.) Arteriole → artery → capillary → vein → venule c.) Artery →
capillary → arteriole → venule → vein d.) Vein → venule → capillary → arteriole → artery
Answer: A.) artery --> arteriole --> capillary --> venule --> vein.
QUESTION 11
The sacral plexus is formed from spinal nerves:
a.) L04- S04 b.) T12-L04 c.) C01-C05 d.) L01-S01
Answer: A.) L04-S04.
QUESTION 12
