This document is a comprehensive final exam study guide for GMS 6440 Fundamentals, containing approximately 500 exam-style questions with 100% correct answers. It covers a wide range of core physiology topics including organ systems (skeletal, muscular, cardiovascular, respiratory, renal), membrane structure and transport mechanisms, electrochemical gradients, and homeostasis. As shown on page 1, the document begins with foundational true/false questions on muscle types and physiological functions, while early sections (pages 2–10) expand into circulation, respiratory function, renal processes, and endocrine regulation. The material is organized in a structured question-and-answer format, making it highly effective for active recall, self-testing, and exam preparation. Mid sections (pages 25–60) provide in-depth coverage of membrane transport (passive vs active), ion channels, Na+/K+ ATPase function, electrochemical equilibrium, and fluid compartment distribution. Advanced sections (pages 60–90+) focus on hormone signaling pathways (GPCRs, ionotropic and catalytic receptors), intracellular signaling mechanisms, and physiological regulation of body systems, ensuring both conceptual understanding and application-level mastery. This study guide aligns closely with foundational and advanced physiology curricula and is particularly relevant for students using Guyton and Hall Textbook of Medical Physiology by John E. Hall. It is suitable for courses such as GMS 6440 Fundamentals, Medical Physiology, Human Physiology, Biomedical Sciences, and Pre-Med programs. This resource is especially beneficial for university and college students preparing for final exams, cumulative assessments, or professional exams, offering a complete and high-yield review of essential physiological concepts. Keywords: physiology, human physiology, membrane transport, ion channels, sodium potassium pump, electrochemical gradient, homeostasis, endocrine system, hormone signaling, gpcr, ionotropic receptors, catalytic receptors, cardiovascular system, respiratory system, renal system, fluid balance, osmolality, active transport, passive transport, cell membrane

GMS 6440 Fundamentals Final
2026 Exam Questions with 100%
Correct Answers | Latest Update


T/F: Cardiac muscle contraction is considered to be voluntary movement. -

🧠 ANSWER ✔✔False


It moves involuntarily.

T/F: In the gastrointestinal tract, smooth muscle is the major muscle type. -

🧠 ANSWER ✔✔True

,T/F: In our body, approximately 8 liters of intestinal juices are secreted into

the GI tract daily, but only 100 ml of water is secreted into the feces. - 🧠

ANSWER ✔✔True


T/F: Normal movement of blood flow in the heart is: left atrium-left ventricle-

lung-right atrium-right ventricle. - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔False


Right atrium - right ventricle - lung - left atrium- left ventricle

T/F: Normally, humans have 2 lobes in the right lung and 3 lobes in the left

lung. - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔False


3 lobes in the right lung and 2 lobes in the left lung

T/F: In the lung, gas exchange occurs mostly at the alveoli. - 🧠 ANSWER

✔✔True


T/F: The urinary system is normally composed of two kidneys, two ureters

and two bladders. - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔False


Two kidneys, two ureters, and ONE bladder

T/F: Filtered wastes from the glomerulus will move in the following order:

Bowman's capsule-proximal tubule-distal tubule-loop of Henle-collecting

duct. - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔False

,Bowman's Capsule - proximal tubule - loop of Henle - distal tubule -

collecting duct

T/F: Both endocrine and nervous systems play important roles in controlling

the activities of many different organ systems to maintain homeostasis. - 🧠

ANSWER ✔✔True


T/F: Specificity of hormone action in the target cells is determined by

receptors. - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔True


T/F: The area of nerve axon not wrapped by myelin sheath (non-myelinated

area) is called nodes of Ranvier where action potential is insulated. - 🧠

ANSWER ✔✔False


Myelin sheath insulates action potential. Action potential propagates faster

by skipping myelinated axon, and jumping from nodes of Ranvier to

another node.

What chemical component of the plasma membrane prevents ions from

readily and freely moving across the membrane? - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Lipids

(phospholipids)

Where is the concentration of [K+] greater:

- in the cytoplasm

_______________. - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔passive through a channel


Where is the concentration of [Na+] greater:

- in the cytoplasm


- in the extracellular fluid - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔In the extracellular fluid


For a neutrally charged molecule, "Active" transport means that the

molecules move across a membrane: - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔from a low

concentration to a high concentration

What molecule is the source of energy for primary active transport to

occur? - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔ATP


T/F: There is only one type of channel in cell membranes. - 🧠 ANSWER

✔✔False


T/F: Regarding primary active transport, solutes move from a compartment

of low concentration to a compartment of high concentration. - 🧠 ANSWER

✔✔True
