PRINCIPLES OF ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY
COMPREHENSIVE TEST PAPER 2026 FULL
SOLUTION VERIFIED PASS
◉ Physiology Answer: science of how body functions-how the body
works
◉ How many levels of structural organization? Answer: 6
◉ How many body systems? Answer: 11
◉ Chemical level Answer: atoms>molecules(DNA)
◉ Cellular level Answer: Smallest structural/functional units of
organisms and the smallest living units in the body ex. nerve,
muscle, epithelial
◉ Tissue level Answer: groups of cells & materials surrounding
them working together for a particular function
4 basic types:
1. epithelial
2. connective
,3. muscular
4. nervous
◉ Epithelial Tissue Answer: covers body surfaces, lines inside of
organs, forms glands
◉ Connective tissue Answer: support, connects, and protects organs
◉ Muscular Tissue Answer: generates a force through contraction
and relexation
◉ Nervous Tissue Answer: Transmit electrical impulses
◉ Organ level Answer: (paragraphs) diff types of tissues are joined
together to make organs= structures composed of 2 or more diff
types of tissues; have specific functions and usually recognizable
shapes ex) stomach, skin, heart, lungs
◉ System level Answer: consists of related organs with a common
function
**sometimes an organ can be a part of more than 1 system
◉ Organism level Answer: organism: any living individual
, all parts of the human body functioning together constitute the total
organism
◉ Integumentary System Answer: Components:Skin, Hair, Nails,
Sweat and Oil Glands
Function: protects body, helps regulate body temperature,
eliminates some wastes, helps make vitamin D, detects sensations
such as touch, pain, warmth, and cold, stores fat and provides
information
◉ Skeletal system Answer: Function: supports and protects body,
muscle attachments, aids body movement
components: bones, joints, cartilages
◉ muscular system Answer: Function: participates in body
movements such as walking, maintains posture, produces heat
components: skeletal muscle tissue
◉ Nervous system Answer: Function: generates action potentials
(nerve impulses) to regulate body activities, detects changes in
body's internal and external environments, RAPID
COMMUNICATION
components: brain, spinal cord, nerves, and special sense organs
such as eyes and ears
