1 Examination (A&P 1 M1) Exam Questions and
Answers
There six levels of organization of the body- what are they? - ANSWER>>chemical
level, cellular level, tissue level, organ level, organ system level, organism level
The necessary life function that protects our internal environment from our
external environment is provided by what system? - ANSWER>>Integumentary
tissue level - ANSWER>>groups of similar cells that have a common function
Types of tissues - ANSWER>>epithelial, connective, muscle, nervous
epithelial tissue - ANSWER>>Tissue that covers outside of the body and lines
organs and cavities. Specialized in secretion and absorption.
connective tissue - ANSWER>>A body tissue that provides support for the body
and connects all of its parts
muscle tissue - ANSWER>>A body tissue that contracts or shortens, making body
parts move.
nervous tissue - ANSWER>>A body tissue that carries electrical messages back and
forth between the brain and every other part of the body.
The function of movement is provided by what system? - ANSWER>>muscular
The function of responsiveness is provided by what system? - ANSWER>>Nervous
, The function of digestion is provided by what system? - ANSWER>>Digestive
What is anabolism? - ANSWER>>making more complex cellular structures from
simpler ones
What is catabolism? - ANSWER>>the breakdown of complex molecules in living
organisms to form simpler ones, together with the release of energy; destructive
metabolism.
Excretion involves what systems? - ANSWER>>digestive, respiratory and urinary
The reproductive system is controlled by what other system? - ANSWER>>the
endocrine system
Which tissue covers the body surface and lines the cavities of the body. -
ANSWER>>Epithelium
Name the three steps in cellular respiration. - ANSWER>>Glycolysis, Citric Acid
Cycle, Electron transport system
What is the purpose of ATP? - ANSWER>>ATP is a very energy rich molecule the
powers the cellular activities allowing cells to have the energy needed to carry out
their functions
Epithelial cells perform what types of functions? - ANSWER>>The cells that make
up epithelial tissue are specialized for tasks such as secretion and absorption.
These cells are under constant cell division to replace dead cells that shed away
What are the four basic tissue types? - ANSWER>>epithelium, muscle, connective
and nervous tissue, each of which is made up of specific cell types that perform
specific functions
