Family Feud Quizzes & Trivia

Follow-up quiz to be taken at the conclusion of Family Feud: Anatomy. Consisting of 10 multiple choice questions.


Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    Which valve releases blood flow to the lungs?

    • A.

      Bicuspid Valve

    • B.

      Tricuspid Valve

    • C.

      Pulmonary Semilunar Valve

    • D.

      Aortic Semilunar Valve

    Correct Answer
    C. Pulmonary Semilunar Valve
    Explanation
    The pulmonary semilunar valve is responsible for releasing blood flow from the right ventricle to the lungs. This valve prevents backflow of blood into the right ventricle when the ventricle relaxes. When the right ventricle contracts, the pulmonary semilunar valve opens, allowing oxygen-depleted blood to be pumped into the pulmonary artery and then to the lungs for oxygenation. Once oxygenated, the blood returns to the heart to be pumped to the rest of the body. Therefore, the pulmonary semilunar valve is the correct answer for this question.

    What is the outer most layer of the heart?

    • A.

      Endocardium

    • B.

      Epicardium

    • C.

      Myocardium

    • D.

      Pericardium

    Correct Answer
    D. Pericardium
    Explanation
    The pericardium is the outermost layer of the heart. It is a tough, fibrous sac that surrounds and protects the heart. It helps to prevent the heart from over-expanding and provides a barrier against infection and inflammation. The pericardium also contains a small amount of fluid that acts as a lubricant, allowing the heart to move and beat smoothly within the chest cavity.

    Which blood vessel moves blood away from the heart?

    • A.

      Capillaries

    • B.

      Arteries

    • C.

      Veins

    • D.

      Lymph Nodes

    Correct Answer
    B. Arteries
    Explanation
    Arteries are the blood vessels that carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to the rest of the body. They have thick and elastic walls that can withstand the high pressure generated by the heart's pumping action. This allows the arteries to efficiently transport blood to all the organs and tissues in the body. In contrast, veins carry deoxygenated blood back to the heart, while capillaries are the smallest blood vessels that connect arteries and veins, facilitating the exchange of oxygen and nutrients with the surrounding tissues. Lymph nodes, on the other hand, are part of the lymphatic system and are responsible for filtering lymph fluid.

    The Femoral Artery is located where?

    • A.

      The Arm

    • B.

      The Chest

    • C.

      The Head

    • D.

      The Leg

    Correct Answer
    D. The Leg
    Explanation
    The Femoral Artery is located in the leg. It is one of the major arteries in the body and is responsible for carrying oxygenated blood to the lower extremities. It is situated in the thigh and can be easily palpated in the groin area. This artery is essential for providing blood supply to the muscles and tissues of the leg, allowing for proper functioning and movement.

  • 5. 

    What sections of the heart are on top?

    • A.

      Ventricles

    • B.

      Atria's

    Correct Answer
    A. Ventricles
    Explanation
    The ventricles are the lower chambers of the heart and are located at the bottom of the heart. They are responsible for pumping oxygenated blood to the body (left ventricle) and deoxygenated blood to the lungs (right ventricle). Therefore, it can be concluded that the ventricles are on top of the heart.

    Where is the oxygen and carbon dioxide exchanges in the lungs?

    • A.

      Bronchi

    • B.

      Alveoli

    • C.

      Carina

    • D.

      Trachea

    Correct Answer
    B. Alveoli
    Explanation
    The oxygen and carbon dioxide exchanges in the lungs occur in the alveoli. Alveoli are tiny air sacs located at the end of the bronchioles in the lungs. They are surrounded by capillaries, which allow for the exchange of gases between the air in the alveoli and the bloodstream. Oxygen from the inhaled air diffuses into the bloodstream through the thin walls of the alveoli, while carbon dioxide, a waste product, diffuses from the bloodstream into the alveoli to be exhaled. This exchange of gases is essential for respiration and the oxygenation of the body's tissues.

    What is the point where the trachea splits?

    • A.

      Carina

    • B.

      Bronchi

    • C.

      Pharynx

    • D.

      Larynx

    Correct Answer
    A. Carina
    Explanation
    The carina is the point where the trachea splits into the left and right bronchi. It is located at the lower end of the trachea, just above the level of the sternum. The carina is an important anatomical landmark as it marks the division of the trachea into the bronchi, which then further divide into smaller bronchioles within the lungs.

    What is the enzyme in the mouth?

    • A.

      Trypsin

    • B.

      Lipase

    • C.

      Salivary Amylase

    • D.

      Pancreatic Amylase

    Correct Answer
    C. Salivary Amylase
    Explanation
    Salivary amylase is the correct answer because it is the enzyme present in the mouth. Salivary amylase, also known as ptyalin, is produced by the salivary glands and helps in the breakdown of starches and carbohydrates into smaller molecules like maltose. It initiates the digestion process in the mouth by breaking down the food as it is being chewed, converting complex carbohydrates into simpler sugars. This enzyme plays a crucial role in the initial stages of digestion before the food enters the stomach.

    What is the kidney made up of?

    • A.

      Neurons

    • B.

      Fats

    • C.

      Nephrons

    • D.

      Nucleic Acids

    Correct Answer
    C. NepHrons
    Explanation
    The kidney is made up of nephrons, which are the functional units of the kidney responsible for filtering waste products from the blood and producing urine. Each kidney contains millions of nephrons, which consist of a glomerulus and a tubule. The glomerulus filters blood, while the tubule reabsorbs necessary substances and eliminates waste products. Therefore, nephrons play a crucial role in maintaining the body's fluid balance and removing waste from the bloodstream.

    What is NOT a part of urine formation?

    • A.

      Digestion

    • B.

      Filtration

    • C.

      Resorption

    • D.

      Secretion

    Correct Answer
    A. Digestion
    Explanation
    Urine formation is a process that occurs in the kidneys and involves several steps. These steps include filtration, resorption, and secretion. Filtration refers to the removal of waste products and excess substances from the blood, while resorption involves the reabsorption of essential substances back into the bloodstream. Secretion is the process of actively transporting certain substances from the bloodstream into the urine. However, digestion is not a part of urine formation. Digestion occurs in the gastrointestinal tract and involves the breakdown of food into smaller molecules for absorption and utilization by the body.
