3
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Anatomy is to __ as physiology is to __. a. cutting up; putting together b. structure; function c. function; structure d. medical terminology; medical tests
4
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Why is the study of human anatomy and physiology critical to your everyday life? a. It develops an understanding of how the body works under normal conditions. b. It serves as a foundation for other life sciences. c. It is useful in knowing what is happening when illness occurs. d. All of the above are correct.
5
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Which of the following sciences is considered the oldest medical science? a. chemistry b. physiology c. epidemiology d. anatomy
6
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. At which level of organization does a histologist investigate structures? a. molecular b. organ c. tissue d. cellular
7
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Why is it important to study each level of structural organization? a. The organization at each level determines structural characteristics of higher levels. b. The organization at each level determines functions of higher levels. c. A and B are correct answers. d. It is not relevant to study all levels of organization.
8
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. The following is a list of several levels of organization that make up the human body. Put them in order from smallest to largest. 1) tissue3) organ5) system 2) cell4) organelle a.1, 3, 4, 2, 5 b.4, 1, 2, 5, 3 c.5, 3, 1, 2, 4 d.4, 2, 1, 3, 5
9
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. What is NOT true of the lymphatic system? a. defends against infection b. includes the liver and the pancreas c. returns fluids to the bloodstream d. includes the tonsils and the thymus
10
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. How do you effectively distinguish cytology from histology? a.Cytology studies structures of tissues; histology studies functions of tissues. b.Cytology analyzes internal structures of individual cells; histology studies groups of specialized cells that work together. c.Cytology uses light microscopy; histology uses electron microscopy. d.Cytology studies disease states; histology studies only healthy tissues.
11
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. A disturbance in homeostasis ________. a. causes a disease if the disturbance persists b. causes a dynamic equilibrium that is always restored c. causes death within a short period of time d. always causes several organ systems failing simultaneously
12
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Most examples of extrinsic regulation of organ systems in the human body will be controlled via ________. a. negative feedback b. positive feedback c. autoregulation d. homeostasis
13
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Why is homeostatic regulation important to an organism? a.Regulation allows individual organ systems to gain total control of the body. b.Individual cells tolerate large ranges of conditions when regulated properly. c.Physiological systems can function normally only under carefully controlled conditions. d.Regulation provides a good framework for studying human physiology.
14
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Which of these statements describe(s) extrinsic regulation? a.Extrinsic regulation results from the activities of the nervous system or endocrine system. b.Extrinsic regulation adjusts activities automatically in response to some environmental change. c.Extrinsic regulatory mechanisms involve oxygen levels declining in a tissue that would promote local vasodilation. d.Statements B and C are correct.
15
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Why is positive feedback helpful in blood clotting, but unsuitable for the regulation of rising body temperature? a.Positive feedback accelerates the clotting process, but would cause temperature to rise out of control. b.Positive feedback would cause temperature to decrease; negative feedback would cause dynamic equilibrium to occur in blood clotting. c.Positive feedback is not reliable. d.Positive feedback works only in life- threatening situations.
16
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Which terms below are mismatched? a. liver/abdominal cavity b. lungs/pleural cavity c. stomach/pelvic cavity d. bladder/pelvic cavity
17
