ANP 1111 MIDTERM EXAM 2026/2027 PRACTICE
QUESTIONS AND CORRECT ANSWERS GRADED
A+
Cell that gathers information and controls body functions...
Nerve cell
Cell of reproduction...
Sperm
Give 4 examples of cellular organelles
Nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus
Which of the following statements most accurately describes the complementarity
of anatomy and physiology?
Functions occur because of the anatomy that exists within the body. (Physiology is
explainable in terms of the underlying anatomy of the body)
,Which of the following best demonstrates the principle of complementarity of
structure and function?
Bones can support and protect body organs because they contain hard mineral
deposits.
Image: Which of the following best demonstrates the principle of complementarity
of structure and function?
Which is not an example of an organ...
A) skin
B) blood vessel
C) stomach
D) smooth muscle
Smooth muscle (smooth muscle is a type of tissue)
Which organ systems are involved in the uptake and transport of materials required
for life-sustaining processes?
Digestive, circulatory, and respiratory
Negative feedback
When a change in a regulated variable triggers a response which reverses the initial
change and brigs the regulated variable back to the set point.
Positive feedback
,Amplifying or magnifying the change or output (contractions during labour)
Positive versus negative feedback
Positive = more , negative = counter action
Which directional term is used to describe the relationship of the skin to the
skeletal muscles?
superficial (because the skin covers the outside of the body; thus, it is superficial,
or external, to the skeletal muscles)
Which of the following is the proper description of the human body in the
anatomical position?
The body is erect with feet slightly apart and palms facing forward with thumbs
pointing away from the body.
The heart is dorsal to the sternum.
True
The heart is posterior to the spine
False
, The ventral cavity includes which three subdivisions?
The ventral cavity, the thoracic cavity, and the abdominopelvic cavities
What tissue type has polarity and us avascular?
Epithelium
What is not a characteristic of stratified squamous epithelia (SSE)
The epidermis is a dry epithelium consisting of non-keratinized SSE
What are water-soluble, complex glycoproteins that are secreted by goblet cells?
Mucin
Epithelial cancers may have the ability to penetrate through this membrane and
spread to underlying tissues...
The basement membrane
Why are adipose tissue, blood, and bone all considered to be connective tissues?
They have a common origin: the embryonic tissue mesenchyme.
