    Explanation
    The correct answer is Sliding Filament Theory. This theory explains how muscles contract by proposing that actin and myosin filaments slide past each other, causing the muscle to shorten. This process occurs when myosin heads bind to actin filaments and pull them towards the center of the sarcomere, resulting in muscle contraction. The Sliding Filament Theory is widely accepted and supported by experimental evidence.

    Which tissue type function provides movement?

    • Muscle Tissue

    • Epithelial Tissue

    • Connective Tissue

    • Nervous Tissue

    Correct Answer
    A. Muscle Tissue
    Explanation
    Muscle tissue is responsible for providing movement in the body. It is composed of muscle cells that have the ability to contract and relax, allowing for the movement of body parts. Muscle tissue is found throughout the body, including in the skeletal muscles, smooth muscles, and cardiac muscles. It is essential for various functions such as voluntary movements, involuntary movements (such as the beating of the heart), and the movement of substances within the body (such as food through the digestive system).

    Which is NOT a hormone secreted by the Adrenal gland?

    • Melatonin

    • Epinephrine

    • Cortisol

    • Norepinephrine

    Correct Answer
    A. Melatonin
    Explanation
    Melatonin is not a hormone secreted by the Adrenal gland. Melatonin is actually a hormone secreted by the pineal gland, which is located in the brain. It plays a key role in regulating sleep-wake cycles and is responsible for maintaining the body's internal clock. The Adrenal gland, on the other hand, secretes hormones such as Epinephrine, Cortisol, and Norepinephrine, which are involved in the body's response to stress, metabolism, and blood pressure regulation.

    How many cells thick are Capillaries

    • 1

    • 10

    • 100

    • 10000000

    Correct Answer
    A. 1
    Explanation
    Capillaries are the smallest blood vessels in the body, with a diameter just wide enough for a single red blood cell to pass through. They are one cell thick, allowing for the exchange of oxygen, nutrients, and waste products between the blood and surrounding tissues. This thinness is essential for efficient diffusion and transport across the capillary walls. Therefore, the correct answer is 1.

    Describe the passage of air through the respiratory tract?

    • Trachea, Bronchi, Bronchioles, Pharynx, Larynx, Alveoli

    • Pharynx, Larynx, Trachea, Bronchioles, Bronchi, Alveoli

    • Larynx, Pharynx, Trachea, Bronchi, Alveoli, Bronchiles

    • Pharynx, Larynx, Trachea, Bronchi, Bronchioles, Alveoli

    Correct Answer
    A. Pharynx, Larynx, Trachea, Bronchi, Bronchioles, Alveoli
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Pharynx, Larynx, Trachea, Bronchi, Bronchioles, Alveoli. Air enters the respiratory tract through the pharynx, then passes through the larynx, trachea, bronchi, and bronchioles. Finally, it reaches the alveoli, which are small air sacs in the lungs where gas exchange occurs. This sequence of structures represents the correct passage of air through the respiratory tract.

    Which of the following is NOT a classification of bone?

    • Irregular Bone.

    • Flat Bone.

    • Sesamoid Bone.

    • Cancellous Bone

    Correct Answer
    A. Cancellous Bone
    Explanation
    Cancellous bone is not a classification of bone because it refers to a type of bone tissue rather than a specific classification. Cancellous bone, also known as spongy or trabecular bone, is found inside the outer layer of compact bone and is characterized by its porous and honeycomb-like structure. It is responsible for providing structural support and strength to bones, but it is not a distinct classification like irregular, flat, or sesamoid bones.
