Chapter 1 an introduction to anatomy and physiology
Multiple choice
1) gross anatomy, or macroscopic anatomy, considers:
A) internal features of the body.
B) features visible with the naked, or unaided, eye.
C) a study of a system of the body.
D) none of the above
Ans>>b
Rationale: gross (macroscopic) anatomy involves studying structures that can be seen without a
microscope—such as muscles, bones, and organs. It contrasts with microscopic anatomy, which requires
magnification to view cells and tissues.
2) the human form shown upright, hands at the sides, palms forward, and feet together is in the
position.
A) anatomical
B) physiological
C) prone
D) supine
Ans>>a
Rationale: the anatomical position is the standard reference posture used to describe body parts
and regions. It ensures consistency in anatomical terminology when referring to locations and directions
on the human body.
3) a person lying face down is in the position.
A) physiological
B) prone
C) anatomical
D) supine
Ans>>b
, 4
Rationale: the prone position means lying flat on the abdomen with the face downward. This is
often used in certain surgical procedures and respiratory therapy situations to improve oxygenation.
4) a person lying face up is in the position.
A) physiological
B) supine
C) prone
D) anatomical
Ans>>b
Rationale: the supine position describes lying on the back, facing upward. It is commonly used for
surgical operations, physical examinations, and imaging procedures.
5) the frontal plane divides the body into the and portions.
A) superior, inferior
B) anterior, posterior
C) lateral, dorsal
D) none of the above
Ans>>b
Rationale: the frontal (coronal) plane separates the body into anterior (front) and posterior (back)
sections. This helps describe movements and anatomical locations, such as those in imaging or physical
therapy.
6) the diaphragm separates the abdominopelvic and cavities.
A) cranial
B) thoracic
C) intestinal
D) renal
Ans>>b
Rationale: the diaphragm is a dome-shaped muscle that separates the thoracic cavity (containing the
lungs and heart) from the abdominopelvic cavity (containing digestive and reproductive organs). It also
plays a key role in respiration.
