ATI TEAS: Anatomy and Physiology
TEST QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
(2023/2024) (VERIFIED ANSWERS)WITH
NGN
right superior pulmonary vein - CORRECT ANSWER the
blood vessel that conveys blood from the right lung back
to the heart (left atrium).
pulmonary loop - CORRECT ANSWER deoxygenated
blood is carried from the heart to the lungs, where gas
exchange takes place, the newly oxygenated blood then
travels back to the heart
systemic loop - CORRECT ANSWER oxygenated blood
is pushed out of the heart and travels through larger blood
vessels until it reaches the capillaries, where gas
exchange takes place, the deoxygenated blood is then
carried back to the heart by veins, then the process starts
again
antibody-mediated immunity - CORRECT ANSWER
Immunity that results from the presence of antibodies in
blood and lymph.
plasma cells - CORRECT ANSWER Cells that develop
from B cells and produce antibodies.
,memory cells - CORRECT ANSWER General term for
lymphocytes that are responsible for immunological
memory and protective immunity.
memory cells and plasma cells - CORRECT ANSWER
this B cell undergoes extremely rapid mitotic division to
become the founder of a germinal center that contains a
clone of _________ and __________
granular leukocytes - CORRECT ANSWER neutrophils,
eosinophils, basophils
agranular leukocytes - CORRECT ANSWER monocytes
and lymphocytes
neutrophil - CORRECT ANSWER first respondent that
quickly migrate to the site of infections to destroy bacterial
invaders; innate immune system
eosinophil - CORRECT ANSWER attack multicellular
parasites; innate immune system
basophil - CORRECT ANSWER large cell responsible
for inflammatory reactions, including allergies; innate
immune system
B-cells - CORRECT ANSWER respond to antigens by
releasing antibodies; adaptive immune system
, T-cells - CORRECT ANSWER respond to antigens by
destroying invaders and infected; adaptive immune
system
natural killer cells - CORRECT ANSWER destroy virus-
infected cells and tumor cells; innate and adaptive immune
systems
macrophage - CORRECT ANSWER engulf and destroy
microbes, foreign substances, and cancer cells; innate
and adaptive immune systems
hormones - CORRECT ANSWER chemical messengers
that are manufactured by the endocrine glands, travel
through the bloodstream, and affect other tissues
pituitary gland - CORRECT ANSWER produces the
hormone which controls growth and some aspects of
sexual functioning (growth hormone, thyroid-stimulating
hormone, oxytocin)
hypothalamus - CORRECT ANSWER controls pituitary
gland; dopamine
pineal gland - CORRECT ANSWER release melatonin,
which induces drowsiness and lowers body temperature
thyroid gland - CORRECT ANSWER controls protein
production and the body's use of energy; regulated by the
thyroid-stimulating hormone, which is released by the
pituitary gland (T3 and thyroxine)
