Test Bank for patient care

Test Bank for patient care Cytology is study of cells Histology is study of tissue A group of similar cells that together perform specialized function is tissue -----------------is the state of balance in the body. When the body is at this state, it means it performs at its maximum potential. Homeostasis Group of organs functioning together for a common purpose is called system In anatomical position, the palms are facing backwards, true or false? F (forward) Sagittal plane divides the body into anterior and posterior, true or false? F (right and left) ----------------plane divides the body to superior and inferior. Transverse Sagittal plane divides the body into right and left, true or false? T Here is a sagittal view of the common carotid artery. What are the orientations on this image? Which part is the proximal section and which part is the distal section? Superior, Inferior( the sides) anterior, posterior (top and bottom) Proximal section is towards the heart (towards inferior) and the distal section is towards the brain (towards superior) Here is a transverse view of the thyroid gland. What are the orientations on this image? right left anterior posterior Here is an ultrasound image of the breast; do you think the lesion is superficial or deep? Superficial (close to the surface) Tissues serving a common purpose or function make up---------------. organ In anatomical position, the thumb is on the medial side of the hand, true or false? F (lateral) The great toe is on the medial side of the foot, true or false? T Opposite of contralateral is -------- ipsilateral The other terms for superior are: cephalad and cranial The other term for inferior is caudal If you know the superficial femoral artery extends from slightly inferior to the groin area to the knee area, which part of it is the proximal part and which part is the distal part? Close to the groin is proximal. Close to the knee is distal. The other term for anterior is------- ventral The other term for posterior is----------- dorsal- Pertaining to the covering of an organ is------- visceral Pertaining to the outer wall of cavity is------ parietal
