liver
gallbladder
small intestine
pancreas
2. Which of the following CORRECTLY matches an organ of the digestive
system with one of its primary functions?
stomach—produces and releases amylase
pancreas—produces enzymes that digest fats, proteins, and
carbohydrates

gallbladder—produces bile that aids in protein digestion
3. What type of tooth is referred to as 'A' in the context of dental anatomy?
Incisor
Molar
Canine
Premolar
4. What is the primary role of the hormone Leptin in the body?
Promoting fat storage
Stimulating digestion of proteins
, Increasing glucose levels in the blood
Regulating energy balance and inhibiting hunger
5. If a patient has a cavity that has penetrated through the enamel and into the
dentin, what implications does this have for treatment?
The cavity may require more extensive treatment due to the
sensitivity and potential for infection in the dentin.
The cavity can be treated with a simple filling since it only affects the

Protons are converted into glucose.
Protons are released into the cytoplasm.
9. Leptin is a hormone that plays a role in:
Controlling appetite and body weight
Regulating body temperature
Stimulating muscle growth
Enhancing memory and cognitive function
10. If the lower esophageal sphincter fails to function properly, what potential
issue could arise in the digestive process?
Improved digestion of proteins

Gastroesophageal reflux
Increased absorption in the duodenum
11. During swallowing, food enters the stomach by passing through the:
