Accepted Answer

Molecule → Cell → Tissue → Organ → Organ system → Organism

Question 3

Which of the following is an example of homeostasis in the human body?

Accepted Answer

Blood glucose levels are regulated by insulin and glucagon to remain within a narrow range.

Question 4

A patient has a disorder affecting their epithelial tissue. Which of the following functions is most likely to be impaired?

Accepted Answer

Protection against pathogens and dehydration

Question 5

Which of the following best defines the term 'histology'?

Accepted Answer

The study of tissues at the microscopic level

Question 6

A person is exposed to cold temperatures. Which physiological process helps maintain their core body temperature?

Accepted Answer

Shivering, which increases muscle activity and heat production

Question 7

Which of the following statements about the nervous system is correct?

Accepted Answer

The central nervous system is responsible for integrating sensory information and coordinating responses.

Question 8

A student is asked to identify the main function of the muscular system. Which answer is most accurate?

Accepted Answer

Generating movement and maintaining posture

Question 9

Which of the following best describes a negative feedback mechanism in physiology?

Accepted Answer

A process that reverses a deviation from a set point to maintain homeostasis

Question 10

A patient has a blood calcium level of 12 mg/dL (normal: 8.5–10.5 mg/dL). Which hormone is most likely to be secreted to restore homeostasis, and what is its effect?

Accepted Answer

Calcitonin; decreases blood calcium by inhibiting bone resorption

Question 11

Which of the following equations correctly represents the relationship between mass, volume, and density, as might be used in a physiology lab?

Accepted Answer

$$Density = \frac{Mass}{Volume}$$

Question 12

A student is examining a slide of nervous tissue under the microscope. Which feature would best help them distinguish neurons from glial cells?

Accepted Answer

Neurons have large, prominent cell bodies with axons and dendrites.

Question 13

During a lab practical, you are asked to identify the function of the spinal cord. Which of the following is correct?

Accepted Answer

It transmits information between the brain and the rest of the body.

Question 14

A person is unable to sweat due to a genetic disorder. Which homeostatic process is most directly affected?

Accepted Answer

Thermoregulation (body temperature control)

Question 15

Which of the following best describes the function of connective tissue?

Accepted Answer

Supports, binds, and protects other tissues and organs

Question 16

A student is asked to explain the difference between the central and peripheral nervous systems. Which statement is correct?

Accepted Answer

The central nervous system includes the brain and spinal cord, while the peripheral nervous system includes all other neural elements.

Question 17

Which of the following is a correct example of anatomical terminology?

Accepted Answer

The heart is superior to the diaphragm.

Question 18

A patient presents with muscle weakness and poor posture. Which body system is most likely involved?

Accepted Answer

Muscular system

Question 19

Which of the following best describes the function of the sensory receptors found in the skin?

Accepted Answer

They detect changes in the environment such as temperature, pressure, and pain.

Question 20

A student is asked to analyze a scenario where blood pressure increases above normal. Which of the following best describes the body's response via negative feedback?

Accepted Answer

Blood vessels dilate and heart rate decreases to lower blood pressure back to normal.
