ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY FOR
EMERGENCY CARE EXAMINATION TEST 2026
COMPLETE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
◉ What is Systemic Anatomy? Answer: It considers the structure of
the major organ systems.
ie: cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive
◉ What is Microscopic Anatomy? Answer: Concerns structures that
cannot be seen without magnification.
◉ What is Cytology? Answer: It is the study of cells, which are
composed of chemical substances and our lives depend on the
chemical processes that occur in those cells.
◉ What is Histology? Answer: It takes a broader perspective and
examines tissues, which are group of specialized cells that work
together to perfor specific functions.
◉ "Bios" refers to what? Answer: The study of life
ie: biology
◉ "Cardium" refers to what? Answer: Heart
,ie: pericardium
◉ "Dorsum" refers to what? Answer: Back
ie: dorsal
◉ "Homeo" refers to what? Answer: Unchanging
ie: homeostasis
◉ "-logy" means/refers to what? Answer: Study of
ie: biology
◉ Metabolism refers to what? Answer: The chemical opertations
that take place in the body.
◉ What does Anatomy mean? Answer: Greek word meaning "a
cutting open", it refers to the study of the PHYSICAL internal and
external structures and the PHYSICAL relationships between body
part.
◉ Physiology mean what? Answer: The study of HOW living
organisms pergorm their vital functions.
◉ Gross Anatomy? Answer: What is seen with the naked eye
, ◉ What is considered the cornerstone of human physiology?
Answer: Cell physiology
◉ Cell physiology is? Answer: The study of the funcitons of living
cells including what takes place and chemical and molecular levels-
both within and between the cells.
◉ Special physiology? Answer: The study of specific organs
ie: renal physiolgoy (kidney function), cardiac physiology
(heart function).
◉ What is Systemic physiology? Answer: It considers all aspects of
the function of specific organ systems.
ie: respiratory physiology and reporductive physiology
◉ Pathological physiology or Pathology is? Answer: The study of the
effects of diseases on organ or system functions
◉ The greek word "pathos" means what? Answer: disease
◉ Why do organisms need Metabolic operations? Answer:
Organisms rely on complex chemical reactions to provide the energy
required for responsiveness, growth, reproduction and movement.
