, Chapter 01 The Sciences of Anatomy and Physiology
Multiple choice:
1) If a scientist forms and tests a hypothesis, but gets unexpected results, what is a logical next
step? Check all that apply.
A) Accept the original hypothesis
B) Reject the original hypothesis
C) Revise the original hypothesis
D) Design a new experiment based on a new or modified hypothesis.
2) Some researchers think pheromones are important tools in human communication. Pheromones
are chemical signals that one individual sends to another. What research questions might be asked by
anatomists, and what questions might be asked by physiologists, to determine if pheromones are
important to humans?
3) Iron atoms help our blood transport oxygen. Describe each level of anatomical structural
complexity for an iron atom in your blood, working from the simplest level (atom) to the most complex
(organism).

, 4) If someone speaks too loudly into a microphone, a public address system will sometimes produce
a loud whistle of amplified feedback. Explain whether this is an example of negative or positive
feedback, and explain how the microphone, control box,and speaker of the system serve as the different
components of a feedback loop.
5) The discipline known as anatomy examines similarities and differences
across species.
6) The discipline that studies the functions of the nervous system, including the way that
impulses are conducted, is known as .
7) The discipline that associates changes in organ system function with disease or injury is known
as .
8) The group of metabolic reactions in which smaller molecules are combined to form larger ones is
.
9) Specialized subunits of cells that are made of macromolecules are called _ .
