The somatic nervous system's motor responses are?
- A.
Automatic
- B.
Voluntary
- C.
Involuntary
- D.
Delayed
Correct Answer
B. VoluntaryExplanation
The somatic nervous system is responsible for voluntary motor responses, meaning that it controls movements that are under conscious control. This includes actions like walking, talking, and writing. Automatic responses, on the other hand, are controlled by the autonomic nervous system and do not require conscious effort, such as breathing or digestion. Involuntary responses are also controlled by the autonomic nervous system, but they are not under conscious control, such as reflexes. Delayed responses do not accurately describe the motor responses of the somatic nervous system.Rate this question:

What slows down the body and helps prepare for more relaxed state, ready for digestion and sleep?
- A.
Flight or flight response
- B.
Peripheral nervous system
- C.
Sympathetic nervous system
- D.
Parasympathetic nervous system
Correct Answer
D. Parasympathetic nervous systemExplanation
The parasympathetic nervous system is responsible for slowing down the body and preparing it for a more relaxed state, which is essential for digestion and sleep. This system works in opposition to the sympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for the fight or flight response. When the parasympathetic system is activated, it promotes rest and digest activities, such as decreasing heart rate, constricting pupils, and increasing digestion. This allows the body to conserve energy and focus on essential functions like digestion and restorative sleep.Rate this question:

When lifting or moving a bedridden patient, what part of your body should endure most of the strain?
- A.
Arms
- B.
Legs
- C.
Back
- D.
Feet
Correct Answer
B. LegsExplanation
When lifting or moving a bedridden patient, the legs should endure most of the strain. This is because the muscles in the legs, particularly the quadriceps and glutes, are larger and stronger compared to the muscles in the arms, back, and feet. By using the legs to lift and support the weight, it helps distribute the load more evenly and reduces the risk of back injuries or strains. Additionally, the legs provide a stable base and better leverage for lifting, making it safer and more efficient to move the patient.Rate this question:
