their functions.
PART I: THE HUMAN BODY—AN ORIENTATION (25 MCQS)
1. Which of the following levels of structural organization is considered the highest (most complex)?
A. Cellular level
B. Tissue level
C. Organ level
D. Organismal level
Answer: D
Explanation: The organismal level is the sum total of all structural levels working together to keep the
body alive and functioning, making it the most complex.
2. Which of the following best describes the anatomical position?
A. Lying down with arms at the sides, palms facing the thighs
B. Standing erect, feet slightly apart, arms at sides, palms facing forward
C. Standing erect, feet together, arms crossed
D. Lying face down, palms facing backward
Answer: B
Explanation: The anatomical position is the standard reference posture: standing upright, feet apart,
arms at the sides, with palms facing forward.
3. Which regional term refers to the ‘arm’ area of the upper limb (the portion between the shoulder
and the elbow)?
A. Brachial
B. Antebrachial
C. Carpal
D. Axillary
Answer: A
Explanation: "Brachial" refers to the arm between shoulder and elbow; "antebrachial" refers to the
forearm.
4. The study of large body structures, visible to the naked eye, such as the heart, is known as:
A. Cytology
B. Histology
C. Gross anatomy
D. Developmental anatomy
Answer: C
Explanation: Gross anatomy (macroscopic anatomy) involves structures that can be observed without a
microscope.

, 5. Which of the following terms means “away from the midline” of the body?
A. Anterior
B. Medial
C. Lateral
D. Proximal
Answer: C
Explanation: Lateral indicates a direction away from the midline; medial indicates toward the midline.
6. The axial part of the body includes which regions?
A. Limbs only
B. Head, neck, and trunk
C. Arms, legs, and trunk
D. Arms and legs
Answer: B
Explanation: The body is divided into axial (head, neck, trunk) and appendicular (limbs).
7. Which plane divides the body into left and right parts?
A. Coronal (frontal)
B. Transverse (horizontal)
C. Oblique
D. Sagittal
Answer: D
Explanation: A sagittal plane divides the body into left and right portions; midsagittal means it divides
exactly along the midline.
8. The thoracic cavity is separated from the abdominal cavity by the:
A. Liver
B. Rib cage
C. Diaphragm
D. Pelvic brim
Answer: C
Explanation: The diaphragm, a dome-shaped muscle, separates the thoracic cavity from the
abdominopelvic cavity.
9. Which of the following body cavities houses the brain?
A. Vertebral cavity
B. Ventral cavity
C. Cranial cavity
D. Thoracic cavity
Answer: C
Explanation: The cranial cavity is formed by the skull and encloses the brain.
10. Homeostasis is the condition in which the body maintains:
A. A static state with no deviations from preset points
B. A dynamic equilibrium within normal ranges
C. A low internal temperature to slow metabolism
D. Absolute constancy within the internal environment
Answer: B
Explanation: Homeostasis involves maintaining a stable internal environment with slight fluctuations
around set points.
11. Which feedback mechanism enhances the original stimulus?
A. Negative feedback
B. Positive feedback
C. Neutral feedback
D. Detrimental feedback
