RUSVM Microanatomy Section 1 Exam
Anatomy - Correct Ans-Science which deals with structures of the healthy body of
animals and humans. The structure is revealed by naked eye observations and it is
based on dissection
Gross Anatomy - Correct Ans-Encompasses all those structures accessible by
dissection and direct inspection
Microanatomy-Histology - Correct Ans-Study of the tissues of the body and how cells
and tissues integrate to form organs
Embryology - Correct Ans-The science which deals with ontogenetic development I.e.
with the development of a new individual
What are the 3 branches of histology? - Correct Ans-Cytology
General Histology, Histology
Special Histology
Cytology - Correct Ans-Science which deals with structure and function of the cell
General Histology, Histology - Correct Ans-Deals with structure of tissues
Special Histology - Correct Ans-Also called ORGANOLOGY deals with the microscopic
structure of organs
What are the 2 components that interact to make up tissues? - Correct Ans-Cells
Extracellular Matrix (ECM)
How does a light microscope work? - Correct Ans-Light beam is transmitted through a
tissue
What types of microscopy are included in light microscopy? - Correct Ans-Conventional
bright field
Fluorescence
Phase-contrast
Differential interference
Confocal
Polarizing
What does a bright field microscope require? - Correct Ans-Requires staining, such as
cytochemistry demonstration of mitochondria in sperms
Phase contrast microscopy - Correct Ans--based on the principle that light changes its
speed when passing through structures with different refractive indices
