Anatomy And Physiology First Six Weeks Exam - Quiz


This is an exam to go with the frist six weeks of human anatomy and physiology.

2. Why do scientist study hominid anatomy and compare this to modern day homosapiens?

Explanation

Scientists study hominid anatomy and compare it to modern-day Homo sapiens to achieve all of the mentioned objectives. By studying hominid anatomy, scientists can gain insights into the origin of certain structural and anatomical characteristics of modern humans, which helps in understanding human evolution. Additionally, comparing hominid anatomy to modern humans allows scientists to understand the species and life that existed at different times in the fossil record. Therefore, studying hominid anatomy and comparing it to modern-day Homo sapiens serves all of these purposes.

3.
What is the name of structure A?

Explanation

The correct answer for the name of structure A is "Cell Membrane" or simply "Membrane." The cell membrane is a thin, flexible barrier that surrounds the cell and separates its internal environment from the external environment. It controls the movement of substances in and out of the cell, maintaining homeostasis and protecting the cell's internal components. Both "Cell Membrane" and "Membrane" accurately describe this structure.

Submit
4. If one is looking at the superior venacava, then one is looking at the cardiovascular structure that is _________ the heart.

Explanation

Remember the vocabulary term superior means above.

Submit
5. Chromosomes can be found in what cell structure?

Explanation

Chromosomes can be found in the nucleus of a cell. The nucleus is the control center of the cell and contains the genetic material, including the chromosomes. The nucleolus is a structure within the nucleus that is involved in the production of ribosomes, but it does not contain chromosomes. Therefore, the correct answer is Nucleus, as it is the main cell structure where chromosomes are located.

Submit
6. How old is the oldest hominid fossil that has been found?

Explanation

The correct answer is 4 million years old. This is the age of the oldest hominid fossil that has been discovered. Hominids are a group of primates that includes modern humans and their ancestors. The discovery of this fossil provides important insights into the evolution and history of our species.

Submit
7.
Which structure is referred to as a gelatinous like material that fills the cell?

Explanation

The structure referred to as a gelatinous like material that fills the cell is the cytoplasm. Cytoplasm is a thick, jelly-like substance that is found inside the cell membrane. It contains various organelles, such as the nucleus, mitochondria, and ribosomes, and also serves as a medium for metabolic reactions and transportation of molecules within the cell.

Submit
8. Which cell organelle/structure is responsible for the movement of substances and water inside and outside of the cell?

Explanation

The cell membrane is the structure that allows material in and out of the cell.

Submit
9. The study of the organ systems, their major components, and how they interact.

Explanation

Anatomy is the study on a macroscopic look inside the body. Physiology is the study of the interworkings or microscopic.

Submit
10. Which viral agent is a close relavtive or very much related to the Herpes Simplex virus?

Explanation

Chicken Pox is in the family of Herpes Simplex and genetically they are very similar also Shingles is an extension of Varisela

Submit
11.
What is structure D responsible for?

Explanation

Structure D is responsible for cellular energy, energy, conversion of ATP, ATP, and adenine triphosphate. The options listed are all related to energy production and specifically refer to ATP, which is the primary molecule responsible for storing and transferring energy in cells. Adenine triphosphate is another name for ATP, and the conversion of ATP refers to the process of breaking down ATP to release energy or synthesizing ATP to store energy. Therefore, structure D is involved in the production, conversion, and utilization of cellular energy in the form of ATP.

Submit
12. The term posterior refers to what type of view in terms of anatomy?

Explanation

The term "posterior" in anatomy refers to a rear view or the backside of the body. It is used to describe the position or location of a structure that is towards the back or rear of the body.

Submit
13. Which of the following are used for medical imaging diagnostics?

Explanation

The correct answer includes Magnetic Resonance Imager, EKG, PET Scan, Sonogram, and X-Ray Imaging. These are all commonly used medical imaging techniques for diagnostic purposes. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) uses magnetic fields and radio waves to produce detailed images of the body's organs and tissues. EKG (Electrocardiogram) is used to measure the electrical activity of the heart and diagnose heart conditions. PET Scan (Positron Emission Tomography) is a nuclear medicine imaging technique that uses radioactive tracers to visualize metabolic activity in the body. Sonogram, also known as ultrasound, uses sound waves to create images of internal organs and structures. X-Ray Imaging uses electromagnetic radiation to produce images of bones and other dense tissues in the body.

Submit
16. What are the four base pairs for the DNA molecule?

Explanation

The four base pairs for the DNA molecule are Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, and Guanine. Adenine pairs with Thymine, and Cytosine pairs with Guanine. These base pairs form the building blocks of DNA and are essential for the replication and transcription of genetic information.
