ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY 1 EXAM 2026 FINAL
PAPER QUESTIONS AND SOLUTIONS GRADED
A+
◉ gallbladder. Answer: store bile
◉ the urinary system. Answer: Eliminates
excess water, salts, and waste products
◉ the male reproductive system. Answer: produce sex cells and
hormones
◉ prostate gland. Answer: secrete fluid that nourishes and
protect sperm
◉ seminal gland. Answer: hold liquid that mix with sperm
◉ ductus deferens. Answer: carry sperm
◉ epididymis. Answer: store sperm
,◉ scrotum. Answer: skin containing testicles
◉ the female reproductive system. Answer: -Produces sex cells and
hormones
-Supports embryonic and fetal development from fertilization to
birth
◉ homeostasis. Answer: -The maintenance of a stable internal
environment
-Body temperature, pH, blood ion concentration, blood glucose,
blood pressure,
oxygenation
-body ability to maintain balance
-Every organism must maintain homeostasis to survive!
-Adjustments in physiological systems are made to preserve
homeostasis
necessary for organism to live
◉ homeostatic regulation. Answer: A typical homeostatic loop
contains:
A receptor
Sensitive to a stimulus
A control center
, Receives and processes information and sends a "command"
An effector cell or organ
Responds to oppose or enhance the stimulus
◉ positive feedback. Answer: the amplification of an effect by its
own influence on the process that gives rise to it
-Less common
-The response amplifies the stimulus
-Usually for regulation of events that must be addressed rapidly (e.g.
coagulation, labor, breastfeeding)
◉ negative feedback. Answer: the diminution of an effect by its own
influence on the process giving rise to it, as when a high level of a
hormone in the blood may inhibit further secretion of that
hormone.
Most common form of feedback loop
The action/response opposes the stimulus
Re-establishes the balance
- TOO MUCH THEN IT WILL DECREASE IT
-TOO LITTLE THEN IT WILL INCREASE IT
