(Contains Set 1 & 2 All 50 Complete Questions with
Answers)
Set 1_ Anatomy and Physiology
1. Fluid balance might be negatively impacted when the fail.
a. Kidneys
b. Ears
c. Nose
d. Legs
A
Kidneys are responsible for regulating fluid balance.
2. Fluid balance is important, because comprises about
60-70% of a person’sweight.
a. Calcium
b. Water
c. Iron
d. Bone
B
Fluid balance is important, because water comprises about 60-70% of a person’s
weight.
3. As a person moves from adolescence to later adulthood, his metabolism
a. Begins to get higher
b. Begins to get lower.
c. Stabilizes
d. Fluctuates wildly
, B
Metabolism slows with aging.
4. “Met” refers to
a. Mitosis
b. The person’s heart rate
c. The person’s blood pressure
d. The person’s metabolic rate.
D
“Met” refers to the person’s metabolic rate.
5. Fluid balance is important, because the human body loses water
every day throughurination, perspiration, feces, and
a. Breathing
b. Resting
c. Meditating
d. Outbursts of temper
A
Fluid balance is important, because the human body loses water every day
through urination,perspiration, feces, and breathing.
6. The smallest unit of life in our bodies is the
a. Atom
b. Molecule
c. Proton
d. Cell
D
The smallest unit of life in our bodies is the cell.
7. One of the functions of the cell membrane is to
a. Divide into other cells.
, b. Control what moves into and out of the cell.
c. Fight infection.
d. Trap bacteria.
B
The cell membrane or plasma membrane is a biological membrane that
separates the interiorof all cells from the outside environment. The cell
membrane is selectively permeable to ionsand organic molecules and controls
the movement of substances in and out of cells
8. The process of a larger cell dividing into two or more smaller cells is
a. Cell division.
b. Cell multiplication.
c. Mitosis.
d. Metabolism.
A
Cell division is the process by which a parent cell divides into two or more
daughter cells. Celldivision is usually a small segment of a larger cell cycle.
9. Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase are all phases of
a. Cell division.
b. Infection.
c. Mitosis.
d. Adrenaline.
C
Mitosis is the process by which a eukaryotic cell separates the chromosomes in
its cell nucleus into two identical sets in two separate nuclei. The process of
mitosis is fast and highly complex.The sequence of events is divided into stages
corresponding to the completion of one set of activities and the start of the next.
These stages are interphase, prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase
and telophase.
10. Mitosis is a scientific term that, in layman’s terms, just means
a. Cellular disease.
