What is the only artery in the body to carry oxygen-poor blood? - vena cava - renal artery - pulmonary artery - interosseous artery - - pulmonary artery (carries oxygen poor blood from the right ventricle of the heart to the lungs.) Chocolate cysts of the ovaries are attributed to ____. - ectopic pregnancy -pelvic inflammatory disease - menorrhagia- endometriosis - - endometriosis ( condition in which the tissue from the uterus grows in other parts of the body, such as the ovaries or bowl. If a woman has endometrial tissue in her ovary, the tissue bleeds and builds up over time, and as the blood ages it turns brown, hence the term "chocolate cyst.") Which is NOT true of synovial joints? - they are found in the intervertebral discs of the spinal column. - they are the most moveable joint type in the body. - they have a fluid-filled capsule that surrounds their articulating surface. - they are the most common joint in the body. - - they are found in the intervertebral discs of the spinal column (the intervertebral discs of the spinal column form a fibrocartilaginous joint.) Ligaments connect ______. - muscle to muscle. - muscle to bone. - tendon to bone. - bone to bone. - - bone to bone. * TENDONS connect muscle to bone. What is the longest muscle in the human body? - sartorius. - vastus medialis. - adductor longus. - vastus lateralis. - - sartorius (it is located in the anterior thigh.) Where is the hyoid located? - neck. - leg. - pelvis. - rib cage. - - neck (it is located between the chin and the thyroid cartilage.)Which is not true of epithelial tissue? - it helps form certain glands. - it is vascular. - it rests on a basement membrane. - it lines cavities in the body. - - it is vascular. Which is NOT produced by an exocrine gland? - adrenaline. - milk. - digestive enzymes. - saliva. - - adrenaline (produced by the adrenals, which are endocrine glands.) The imaginary line that separates the body into superior and inferior regions is called the ____. - coronal plane. - transverse plane. - sagittal plane. - vertical plane. - - transverse plane (upper & lower: superior & inferior) *sagittal (left and right halves.) *coronal (back & front: dorsal & ventral.) The pyloric sphincter is located between ____. - the esophagus and stomach. - the small and large intestine. - the stomach and small intestine. - the rectum and anus. - - the stomach and the small intestine (permits food to pass from the stomach to the small intestine.)Blood vessels enter and exit bones through _______. - fovea. - foramina. - facets. - fossa. - - foramina (allows cranial nerves, arteries, and veins to pass through solid structures.) Which cells are responsible for bone formation? - osteoblasts. - osteoclasts. - chondrocytes. - osteocytes. - - osteoblasts (main cells that make up bones. In organized groups, they produce calcium and phosphate-based mineral that helps contribute to bone strength and density.) Why are bones considered to be organs? - they contain nervous and connective tissue. - they contain cells. - they are part of the framework of the body. - they are not considered organs. - - they contain nervous and connective tissue (they are rigid organs.)
