c) Endocrinology
d) Histology
e) Immunology
Answer: b
Difficulty: Easy
Bloomcode: Knowledge
Learning Objective 1: LO 1.1 Define anatomy and physiology, and name several branches of
these sciences.
Section Reference 1: Sec 1.1 Anatomy and Physiology Defined
Question type: Multiple Choice
2) A group of cells that work together to perform a particular function is a(n)
a) tissue.

c) molecules.
d) compounds.
e) organism.
Answer: a
Difficulty: Easy
Bloomcode: Knowledge
Learning Objective 1: LO1.2 Identify the locations and functions of each of the organ systems
and major organs of the human body.
Section Reference 1: Sec 1.2 Levels of Structural Organization and Body Systems.

Question type: Multiple Selection
3) What process occurs when amino acids build new proteins? Select all that apply.
a) Metabolism
b) Anabolism
c) Catabolism
d) Responsiveness
e) Differentiation
Answer 1: a
Answer 2: b
Difficulty: Medium
Bloomcode: Application
Learning Objective 1: LO1.3 Define the important life processes of the human body.
Section Reference 1: Sec 1.3 Characteristics of the Living Human Organism
Question type: Essay
4) How are reproduction, differentiation and growth related?
Answer:
Difficulty: Hard
Bloomcode: Synthesis
Learning Objective 1: LO1.3 Define the important life processes of the human body.
Section Reference 1: Sec 1.3 Characteristics of the Living Human Organism
Solution: Reproduction occurs through the fertilization of an ovum by a sperm cell to form a
zygote, followed by repeated cell divisions and the differentiation of these cells. Growth is an
increase in body size that results from an increase in the size of existing cells, an increase in the
number of cells, or both.
Question type: Multiple Choice
5) The two organ systems that predominantly regulate and maintain homeostasis are the
a) cardiovascular and integumentary systems.
b) nervous and endocrine systems.
c) cardiovascular and respiratory systems.
