urethra » bladder » kidney » ureter
kidney » ureter » bladder » urethra
kidney » urethra » bladder » ureter
bladder » ureter » kidney » urethra
3
Which sequence represents part of the normal pathway of blood?
Right Atrium, Left Atrium, Right Ventricle, Left Ventricle
Aorta, Left Atrium, Left Ventricle, Pulmonary Artery
Pulmonary Vein, Left Atrium, Left Ventricle, Aorta
Pulmonary Artery, Left Atrium, Left Ventricle, Aorta
4
The muscular nature of the walls of ventricles is most closely associated with their function of
forcing blood to the lungs and body
maintaining pressure lower than that in the atria
producing red blood cells
storing blood from the body
5
Which statement best describes the blood pumped from the structure labeled E?
It is deoxygenated and will be transported to the skin.
It is deoxygenated and will be transported to the lungs.
It is oxygenated and will be transported to the right atrium.
It is oxygenated and will be transported to the brain.
6
Glycogen is best described as a
by-product of sucrose digestion within the pancreas
complete protein necessary for the synthesis of cell membranes
complex carbohydrate that is often stored in RBCs
polysaccharide that is synthesized and stored within the human liver
7
Leukemia is a disease of the
islets of Langerhans (pancreas)
heart
bone marrow
liver
8
Blood pressure measures how hard blood is pumped out of the heart & so is most directly be related to contraction of
Left Atrium
Right Ventricle
Right Atrium
Left Ventricle
9
The digestion of starch begins in the
small intestine
stomach
mouth
gallbladder
10
Pepsin and trypsin are classified as
sugars
carbohydrates
proteins
lipids
11
Which structures in a human transmit electrochemical messages?
lymphocytes
veins
neurons
nephrons
12
Pepsin & trypsin are human digestive enzymes. The graph indicates that pepsin would function best in the
small intestine
large intestine
mouth
stomach
13
The ability of an organism to obtain food, seek shelter, and avoid predators is most directly related to the function of
reproduction
excretion
locomotion
digestion
14
In the process of regulation, both dandelions and grasshoppers utilize
hormones, only
hormones and nerves
tropisms
nerves, only
15
In humans, the immediate result of a blockage in one ureter would be to
decrease the amount of urine entering the bladder
stop the release of urine from the body
prevent filtration of the blood
limit the ability to store urine
16
Platelets are specialized cells in the blood that act to maintain homeostasis by
blood clotting
asthma
anemia
passive immunity
17
The principal function of Structure X is to
digest bile
produce salivary enzymes
absorb water
secrete sex hormones
18
Which type of connective tissue makes up the largest percentage of the endoskeleton of a human embryo?
ligaments
cartilage
tendons
bone
19
The part of the human Central Nervous System that conducts impulses from the brain to the PNS is protected by
receptors
effectors
skull
vertebral column (vertebrae)
20
Veins are blood vessels that
deliver blood to the cells of the body
contain striated muscle
carry blood toward the heart
readily exchange materials between the blood and body cells
21
In humans, structures that absorb most of the products of digestion are the
muscular folds of the gallbladder
ducts of the pancreas
cells of the esophagus
villi of the small intestine
22
In humans, there are several types of neurons. One function of an interneuron is to relay impulses between
receptors to the brain
a sensory neuron to a motor neuron
motor neurons to receptors
receptors to fingers
23

arthritis and tendonitis
25
Which statement concerning gas transport in humans is correct?
Carbon dioxide is transported to body cells by lymphocytes.
Carbon dioxide is transported to body cells in the form of lactic acid.
Oxygen is transported to body cells by lymph vessels.
Oxygen is transported to body cells w/ the use of hemoglobin
26
