Anatomy and physiology is a course that describes the structure and operation of one's individual body. Studying it helps one know exactly what goes on inside the body and leads to some actions. Give the quiz below a try and test your basic knowledge of anatomy and what it entails.
Movement
Storage of energy
ATP storage
Blood cell production
Osteoclasts
Osteocytes
Stem cells
Chondrocytes
Long bone
Irregular bone
Short bone
Shallow, basin-like depression.
Smooth, nearly flat articular surface.
Canal-like passage
Small rounded projection
Large blunt irregular surface
Rounded projection on a neck
Armlike bar of bone
Shallow, basin-like depression
Narrow slitlike opening for passage of blood vessels
The osteon
Spongy bone
Osseous matrix
Myofibril
Cartilage and compact bone
Dense irregular connective tissue
Osteoblasts and osteoclasts
Chondrocytes and osteocytes
Is accomplished by secondary ossification
Is a characteristic of intramembranous bone formation
Requires that the mesenchyme become periosteum
Involves medullary cavity formation
To increase blood calcium
To increase blood potassium
To help blood to clot
To reduce bone mass
Randomly
At right angles to lines of stress
Along lines of stress
Obliquely to lines of stress
Sternum
Ethmoid
Atlas
Clavicle
The orbits are made entirely of cartilage
The orbits are formed of both facial and cranial bones
The orbits contain only cranial bones
The orbits contain only facial bones
Frontal
Sphenoid
Ethmoid
Occipital
Temporal
Concave posteriorly
Convex posteriorly
Neither concave nor convex
Annulus pulposis, nucleus fibrosis
Nucleus fibrosis, annulus pulposis
Nucleus pulposis, annulus fibrosis
Annulus fibrosis, nucleus pulposis
Form moveable joints between vertebrae.
Connect vertebrae via interspinous ligaments
Contain the spinal cord and protects it
Sit between disks and bears the body weight above.
Provide anatomical surface landmarks for the heart and lungs
Alternately lift and depress the thorax
Involve only the true ribs
Cause certain ribs to "float"
Cuboid
Calcaneus
Talus
Navicular
Thoracic and sacral
Lumbar and sacral
Thoracic and cervical
Cervical and lumbar
Have large joint cavities
Are cartilaginous joints.
Are found at the junction of the epiphysis and diaphysis of growing bone
Permit essentially no movement.
Cartilaginous joint
Suture
Condyle
Synovial joint
Cartilage pads that subdivide synovial cavities
Tendon sheaths
Small sacs containing synovial fluid
Cavities lined with cartilage
Lateral flexion
Rotation
Supination
Abduction
Pronation
Condyloid joint
Plane joint
Hinge joint
Saddle joint
Common due to the weight-bearing the hip endures
Rare because the rotator cuff stabilizes the hip joint
Common in all people who are overweight
Rare because of the strong ligament reinforcement
