1. Multiple Choice
Question : Which of the following is the primary function of the
medulla oblongata?
a) Regulation of body temperature
b) Control of heart rate and respiratory rate
c) Integration of sensory information
d) Hormone secretion
ANS : b) Control of heart rate and respiratory rate

, Rationale : The medulla oblongata, located in the brainstem, is
responsible for vital autonomic functions such as heart rate,
respiration, and blood pressure regulation.

2. Fill-in-the-Blank
Question : The __________ is the structural and functional unit
of the nervous system.
ANS : Neuron
Rationale : Neurons are the basic units of the nervous system,
specialized for transmitting electrical and chemical signals.
---
3. True/False
Question : The left ventricle of the heart pumps oxygen-poor
blood to the lungs.
ANS : False
Rationale : The left ventricle pumps oxygen-rich blood to the
systemic circulation, while the right ventricle pumps oxygen-poor
blood to the lungs.

4. Multiple Response
Question : Which of the following are functions of the skeletal
system?
a) Blood cell production
b) Protection of internal organs
c) Hormonal regulation
d) Storage of minerals
ANSs : a) Blood cell production, b) Protection of internal
organs, d) Storage of minerals
Rationale : The skeletal system produces blood cells
(hematopoiesis), protects vital organs like the brain and lungs, and
stores minerals such as calcium and phosphate.

5. Multiple Choice
Question : What is the primary role of hemoglobin in red blood
cells?
a) Transporting glucose

, b) Maintaining pH balance
c) Carrying oxygen to tissues
d) Generating ATP
ANS : c) Carrying oxygen to tissues
Rationale : Hemoglobin binds oxygen in the lungs and
transports it to tissues throughout the body, facilitating cellular
respiration.

6. Fill-in-the-Blank
Question : The __________ system is responsible for
maintaining homeostasis by releasing hormones into the
bloodstream.
ANS : Endocrine
Rationale : The endocrine system secretes hormones that
regulate physiological processes, ensuring internal stability.
