Question 2 WRONG
The fragile, transparent barrier that contains the cell contents is called:
Question 3 CORRECT
A clinical instructor is discussing about the body planes and sections. When a section is made along a horizontal plane the body is divided into:
Anterior and posterior parts Right and left parts Midsagittal and median section
Question 4 CORRECT
The plasma membrane in the body allows some substances to pass through it while excluding others. This type of barrier is termed as:
Question 5 WRONG
The abdominal region located at the left side of the umbilical area is called:
Left Hypochondriac region Left iliac region Left lumbar region Epigastric area
Question 5 Explanation: Left lumbar lies beside the umbilical area. Left hypochondriac lies beside the epigastric region. Left iliac region is located at the left side of the hypogastric region.
Question 6 WRONG
A patient is complaining of pain in the region at the right side of the hypogastric region. This area of the abdomen is also known as:
Right Hypochondriac region Right iliac region Right lumbar region Umbilical region
Question 6 Explanation: Right iliac region is located at the right side of the hypogastric region. Right hypochondriac lies beside the epigastric region while the right lumbar lies beside the umbilical area.
Question 7 WRONG
If the located area is at pointing away from the midline of the body it is termed as:
Question 8 CORRECT
When the body is divided into right and left parts the cut is a:
Question 9 CORRECT
Most school age children are having cuts or wounds at the anterior knee region because of the tendency to fall during extreme activity involvement. The anterior knee region is also known as:
Question 10 CORRECT
A homogeneous mixture of two or more components is known as:
Question 11 CORRECT
A correct anatomical position is best exemplified by which of the following?
Standing up with palms held unnaturally forward with thumbs pointing towards the body. Standing up with palms held backward with thumbs pointing towards the body. Standing up with palms held unnaturally forward with
thumbs pointing away from the body. Standing up with palms held unnaturally forward with thumbs pointing towards the body.
Question 11 Explanation: A correct anatomical position is similar to a standing at attention but is less comfortable because the palms held unnaturally forward with thumbs pointing away from the body.
Question 12 WRONG
The genetic material , deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is contained in:
Question 13 WRONG
A frontal section divides the body into:
Anterior and posterior parts Right and left parts Midsagittal and median section Superior and inferior parts
Question 13 Explanation: A frontal section is a cut made along a lengthwise plane dividing the body into anterior and posterior parts.
Question 14 CORRECT
The cells that fight disease is known as:
Nerve cell
Question 15 WRONG
The knee in relation to the thigh is termed as:
Question 16 WRONG
The process by which water and solutes are forced through a membrane or capillary wall by fluid or hydrostatic pressure is called:
Question 17 CORRECT
While on duty, the student nurse notices that the clients crural area has lesions and abrasions. Crural area is also known as the:
Posterior surface of the lower leg Posterior surface of the elbow Anterior leg area Lateral part of the leg
Question 17 Explanation: a. Posterior surface of the lower leg - sural b. Posterior surface of the elbow - olecranal c. Anterior leg area - crural d. Lateral part of the leg fibular
Question 18 WRONG
Knowledge on body landmarks is essential to learn about anatomy and physiology. The posterior surface of the lower leg is known as:
Question 19 CORRECT
To sustain life an individual must be able to function properly. Survival needs include the following apart from:
Question 19 Explanation: Survival needs include water, food, oxygen, appropriate temperature, atmospheric pressure. Because of the word apart from the correct answer is letter D. (Source: Essentials of Anatomy and Physiology by Marieb 8th Ed. P 9 An adolescent has been participating in a competitive sport game. Accidentally, he fell off and complains of pain in his coxal area. The adolescent has pain on: Posterior knee area Hip area Thigh area Point of shoulder Question 20 Explanation: a. Posterior knee area popliteal b. Hip area coxal c. Thigh area femoral d. Point of shoulder acromial Question 21 WRONG The substance present in the largest amount in a solution is which of the following? Solutes Solvent Solution Interstitial fluid Question 21 Explanation: a. Solutes tiny components present in small amounts. b. Solvent the substance present in the largest amount. c. Solution - A homogeneous mixture of two or more components d. Interstitial fluid the fluid that continuously bathes the exterior of the cells. Question 22 CORRECT The process by which molecules are moving from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration to become evenly distributed is called: Filtration Diffusion Passive transport process Active transport process
Question 22 Explanation: Diffusion is the process by which molecules are moving from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration to become evenly distributed. Filtration is the process by which water and solutes are forced through a membrane or capillary wall by fluid or hydrostatic pressure. Passive transport processes substances are transported across the membrane without energy input from the cell. In active transport processes, the cell provides the metabolic energy ATP that drives the transport process. Question 23 CORRECT The cellular material outside the nucleus but is located inside the cell membrane is called: Nucleoli Chromatin Cytoplasm Plasma membrane Question 23 Explanation: Cytoplasm is the cellular material outside the nucleus but inside the plasma membrane. a. Nucleoli - dark-staining, round bodies in the nucleus. b. Chromatin loose network of bumpy threads that is scattered throughout the nucleus. c. Cytoplasm d. Plasma membrane - (or cell membrane) contains all cell contents and separates them from the surrounding environment. Question 24 WRONG Which membrane junction is responsible for preventing the skin cells from pulling apart during a mechanical stress such as someone pulling a persons extremity? Gap junctions Desosomes Tight junctions Microvilli Question 24 Explanation: a. Gap junctions commonly seen in the heart and embryonic cells that functions mainly to allow communication. b. Desosomes anchoring junctions that prevent the skin cells from pulling apart during a mechanical stress c. Tight junctions impermeable junctions that bind cells together into leakproof sheets that prevent substances from passing through the extracellular space between cells. d. Microvilli tiny fingerlike projections that increases the cells surface area for absorption. Question 25
WRONG To maintain homeostasis the body function interacts. The homeostatic control mechanism that responds to environmental changes is called: Effector Receptor Control center Stimuli Question 25 Explanation: a. Effector produces the response b. Receptor responds to environmental change c. Control center assesses the changes present d. Stimuli the change itself
