Chapters 1–27
UNIT 1: FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES OF ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY
CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION TO ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY
Multiple Choice Questions
1. Which of the following best defines anatomy?
A) The study of how body structures function
B) The study of the structure of body parts and their relationships to one another
C) The study of chemical reactions within the body
D) The study of disease processes
Answer: B
Rationale: Anatomy is the study of structure and the relationships among structures. Physiology (A) is
the study of function. Chemistry (C) and pathology (D) are separate disciplines.
2. The study of the functions of body structures is called:
A) Anatomy
B) Histology
C) Physiology
D) Pathology
Answer: C
Rationale: Physiology is the study of how body parts function. Anatomy (A) studies structure. Histology
(B) studies tissues. Pathology (D) studies disease.
3. Which level of structural organization is the simplest?
A) Tissue level
B) Cellular level
C) Chemical level
D) Organ level
