BIOD152 A&P 2 -PORTAGE LEARNING FINAL EXAM
VERIFIED FOR 2025 | ACCURATE QUESTIONS &
ANSWERS
1. What part of the ECG is primarily associated with ventricular
depolarization?
T wave
P wave
U wave
QRS complex
2. In a clinical scenario where a patient has a damaged dorsal root
ganglion, what type of sensory information would be affected?
Afferent sensory information
Autonomic nervous system signals
Efferent motor commands
Reflex responses
3. If a patient presents with loss of sensation in the anterior thigh and
difficulty extending the knee, which nerve might be affected based on
the labels A-C?
saphenous
tibial nerve
, lateral femoral cutaneous
femoral nerve
4. If a patient has a blockage in the systemic circuit, what physiological
consequence might occur?
Increased blood pressure in the heart
, Improved nutrient absorption in the intestines
Reduced oxygen delivery to body tissues
Enhanced oxygenation of blood in the lungs
5. What is the name of the vessel that is typically associated with the
circumflex branch?
Femoral artery
Coronary artery
Circumflex artery
Brachial artery
6. The main functions of the temporal and occipital lobes, respectively, are
auditory and visual processing
smell and taste processing
taste and smell processing
visual processing and auditory processing
7. What are the four main parts of the human brain?
frontal lobe, parietal lobe, occipital lobe, temporal lobe
cerebral hemispheres, diencephalon, brain stem, cerebellum
hypothalamus, amygdala, hippocampus, brain stem
cerebral cortex, thalamus, medulla oblongata, cerebellum
8. If a medical condition affects the vestibule of the female reproductive
system, what symptoms might a patient experience?
Discomfort or pain during intercourse
, Difficulty in breathing
Loss of appetite
Increased urine output
9. When voltage-gated Na+ channels in a nerve cell open, what happens to
the axonal membrane?
No change in the membrane potential occurs.
It becomes electrically charged.
The membrane potential rises to 0 mV and stays there.
The nerve cell becomes more negatively charged inside than
outside.
It depolarizes.
10. Which side of the heart is primarily affected in cases of peripheral
edema due to heart failure?
Left side of the heart
Both sides of the heart
Right side of the heart
Neither side of the heart
11. Describe how the movement of fluid in the cochlear duct contributes to
the process of hearing.
Fluid movement in the cochlear duct directly vibrates the
eardrum.
Fluid movement helps to equalize pressure in the ear.
The cochlear duct amplifies sound waves before they reach the
ossicles.
