BIO201 EXAM 1: BIO 201 HUMAN
ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY,
2025/2026
Anatomy - CORRECT ANSWERS- Is the science that is concerned
with body structures and the relationships among them
Physiology - CORRECT ANSWERS- Is the science that is concerned
with the functions of the body parts
Elastic Cartilage - CORRECT ANSWERS- Cartilage that contains
elastic fiber networks and collagen fibers in a non-glassy matrix;
(Yellow Cartilage) Located in the external top of the ear,
epiglottis, eustachian tubes; Provides support and maintains
shape
Fibrocartilage - CORRECT ANSWERS- Cartilage that contains
fibrous bundles of collagen, such as that of the intervertebral
disks in the spinal cord; Resists compression, support
Osseous (bone) Tissue - CORRECT ANSWERS- Tissue that consists
of a bone cell called an osteocyte surrounded by a hard matrix of
Ca salts and collagen fibers; Very vascular; Two types
,Spongy Bone - CORRECT ANSWERS- Type of bone tissue that
consists of trabeculae
Compact Bone - CORRECT ANSWERS- Type of bone that consists
of units called osteons that contain lamella, lacuna, canaliculi, and
a central canal
Vascular (blood) Tissue - CORRECT ANSWERS- Liquid matrix
called plasma with blood cells within it; Located within heart and
blood vessels; Transports oxygen and carbon dioxide;
Phaghocytosis
Lymph - CORRECT ANSWERS- Liquid extracellular matrix that
contains many types of cells
Skeletal Muscle Tissue - CORRECT ANSWERS- Voluntary; Striated;
Regenerates poorly; Attached to bone; Gross body movement
Cardiac Muscle Tissue - CORRECT ANSWERS- Involuntary;
Striations; Intercalated discs; No regeneration; Located in heart;
Contracts hearts, Propels blood
Smooth Muscle Tissue - CORRECT ANSWERS- Involuntary; Not
striated; Can regenerate; Lines hollow organs, walls viscera, iris,
anal sphincter; Propels substances through the body
, Nervous Tissue - CORRECT ANSWERS- Tissue that is Irritable and
conductable, and consists of two types of cells: neurons and
neuroglia; Located in the brain and spinal cord; Responds to
stimuli and converts it into nerve impulses and carries these
impulses to other neurons
Neuron - CORRECT ANSWERS- Nerve cells; Has a soma (cell
body), dendrites, axon, nucleus; Located in the brain and spinal
cord
Neuroglia - CORRECT ANSWERS- Support cells; Does not
generate nerve impulses; does not regenerate; Located in the
brain or spinal cord;
Hyperplasia - CORRECT ANSWERS- Cells multiply by mitosis; this
occurs in most embryonic and childhood growth
Hypertrophy - CORRECT ANSWERS- Enlargement of pre-existing
cells; Exercised muscle cells
Neoplasia - CORRECT ANSWERS- Development of a tumor;
Composed of abnormal, nonfunctional tissue
Regeneration - CORRECT ANSWERS- Dead or damaged tissue is
replaced by same type of cells as before; Restores normal
functions
