Introduction
This comprehensive examination assesses the laboratory knowledge,
anatomical identification skills, and physiological reasoning required of
students completing Portage Learning BIOD 151: Essential Human
Anatomy & Physiology I with Lab. The assessment evaluates proficiency
in lab safety protocols, anatomical terminology, body planes, histology,
and organ system identification. Items are presented in multiple-choice,
,identification, and scenario-based formats designed to simulate the
practical examination environment. Emphasis is placed on accurate
structure identification, reagent interpretation, experimental procedure,
and clinical application of laboratory findings. The examination
challenges candidates to integrate microscopy, dissection, and
biochemical testing principles to demonstrate mastery of human
anatomy and physiology at the laboratory level.
Section One: Questions 1–150
1. Susan Smith is a participant in an Anatomy and Physiology lab
class. Susan walked into lab today carrying a bagged lunch that she
brought to eat following class. She has long blonde hair that is not
pulled back. Today in class, you are reviewing basic microscopy and
you notice that Susan's microscope is partially hanging off the edge
of her lab bench. Given what you learned from the lab video, list
two lab safety concerns you notice in the above scenario.
A. Susan brought food into the lab; Susan did not pull her hair back
B. Susan was late to class; Susan did not bring her textbook
C. The microscope was too clean; Susan's hair was too long
D. Susan sat too close to the window; the microscope was on the wrong
setting
A. Susan brought food into the lab; Susan did not pull her hair back
RATIONALE: Food and drinks are never allowed in the lab because
they can become contaminated or cause accidents. Long, loose hair
must always be pulled back to prevent it from getting caught in
equipment or dipping into hazardous materials. The microscope hanging
off the bench also poses a fall hazard.
, 2. Describe the position of a subject's body when they are in
anatomical position.
A. Lying face down with arms crossed
B. Standing upright with feet flat on the ground, head facing forward, arms
at sides with palms facing forward
C. Sitting with legs crossed and hands on hips
D. Lying on the back with arms raised above the head
B. Standing upright with feet flat on the ground, head facing forward,
arms at sides with palms facing forward
RATIONALE: Anatomical position is the standardized reference
position. The body stands upright, facing forward, feet slightly apart and
flat on the ground, arms at the sides with palms facing forward
(supinated), and head level.
3. Which of the following anatomical planes best describes a cut that
divides the body into equal left and right halves?
A. Frontal Plane
B. Sagittal Plane
C. Mid-Sagittal Plane
D. Transverse Plane
C. Mid-Sagittal Plane
RATIONALE: The mid-sagittal (median) plane is a vertical plane that
runs exactly through the midline, dividing the body into equal left and
right halves. A general sagittal plane divides the body into left and right
portions but not necessarily equal halves.
, 4. Which of the following anatomical planes best divides the body into
anterior and posterior portions?
A. Frontal Plane
B. Mid-Sagittal Plane
C. Sagittal Plane
D. Transverse Plane
A. Frontal Plane
RATIONALE: The frontal plane (also called the coronal plane) is a
vertical plane that runs from side to side, dividing the body into anterior
(front) and posterior (back) portions.
5. When comparing the relationship of the eyes to the occipital (back
portion) region of the head, which of the following terms best
describes the occipital region?
A. Ventral
B. Dorsal
C. Anterior
D. Posterior
E. a. and c.
F. b. and d.
F. b. and d.
RATIONALE: The occipital region is at the back of the head. It is both
dorsal (toward the back) and posterior (behind). Ventral and anterior refer
to the front side of the body.
