ATI TEAS TEST QUESTIONS WITH ACCURATE ANSWERS
What occurs during tubular reabsorption - Accurate answers useful material moves from filtrate
back into the bloodstream
What describes the function of a structure in the circulatory system - Accurate answers pulmonary
artery contains oxygen poor blood which carries away from the heart to lungs
What does pumonary veins do - Accurate answers Bring oxygen rich blood from the lungs to the
left atrium
What carries oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body - Accurate answers Hemoglobin is a
protein in RBC that carries oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body
What may result from the removal of the colon from the gastrointestinal tract - Accurate answers
Dehydration because water is reabsorbed from the waste material in the colon, without a colon, person
would lose more water during digestion
B-cells are part of what - Accurate answers Part of adaptive immune system which produces
antibodies in response to specific pathogens
What emulsifies lipids during digestion - Accurate answers Bile which is the product of liver and
stored in gallbaldder
What does amylase do - Accurate answers enzyme that breaks down startch
What is peristalsis - Accurate answers the involuntary contraction of the smooth muscle of the GS
tract, squeezes food along the digestive tract
What is muscle dystrophy - Accurate answers when voluntary and involuntary muscles are
compromised. different from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis where only voluntary muscle control is lost
What part of the nervous system causes skeletal muscle contractions - Accurate answers Somatic
division controls the skeletal muscles of the body
What hormone secreted by adrenal gland increases reabsorption of sodium ions - Accurate answers
aldosterone
What is renal artery - Accurate answers Branches of the abdominal aorta that supply the kidneys
What results from a deficit in the production of thyrotropin releasing hormone - Accurate answers
Thyrotropin releasing hormone triggers the production of thyroid hormone from the thyroid gland, so
thyroid gland doesnt produce a sufficient amount of its primary hormone
What hormona is released and stimulates uterine contractions during childbirth - Accurate answers
oxytocin, made by hypothalamus and released by posterior pituitary
, What is positive feedback - Accurate answers Mechanism that increases when product when
reactants are increased
Inhibited function of sweat glands can cause - Accurate answers loss of the ability to regulate body
temperature because sweating is a major mechanism of thermoregulation
What adaptive immune system decreases the amount of time it takes for body to respond to an antigen
- Accurate answers Memory cells are a thype of lymphocyte that responds more quickly to an
antigen upon reintroduction of the pathogen
What warms the body via integumental thermoregulation - Accurate answers cutaneous
vasocontriction
What is a result of inhibited osteoblast function at the epiphyseal plate - Accurate answers
mineralization will not occur in the location. osteoblasts are bone cells that produce secretions blocking
the inhibition of mineralization
What channels contain blood vessels and nerves in the bones - Accurate answers Haversian canals
aka central canal
What happens when mineral resorption is prevented and calcium is not removed from bone - Accurate
answers hypocalcemia
If vesicles leaving the ER were prevented from fusing with Golgi, what happens - Accurate answers
lysosomes couldnt be formed
What is an organ - Accurate answers a self contained part of an organism that performs a specific
function
What is the small passages of the respiratory system that terminate in air sacs - Accurate answers
bronchioles
What is the glottis - Accurate answers passageway that allows air to travel past the vocal cords
What is the function of alveoli - Accurate answers At each alveolus, CO2 from the inside of the
capillaries diffuses into the lungs
What female structure transports female gametes from the ovaries to the uterus - Accurate answers
fallopian tube
What reproductive organ produces sperm in males and ova in females - Accurate answers gonads
What is prostate - Accurate answers gland between bladder and penis that controls the release of
urine and seretes a portion of semen that enhances motility and fertility of sperm
What is the center of the kidney where urine collects before moving to the ureter - Accurate answers
renal pelvis
