BIOS 255 Comprehensive Exam with questions and well defined answers
Stroke Volume (SV) - correct answer-EDV-ESV
Cardiac Output (CO) - correct answer-SV x HR
Pulse Pressure (PP) - correct answer-SBP-DBP
Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) - correct answer-diastolic pressure + pulse pressure/3
What is the QRS complex of an ECG? - correct answer-ventricular depolarization
endocrine cells - correct answer-release their secretions directly into body fluids
exocrine glands - correct answer-secrete chemical substances into ducts that lead either
to other organs or out of the body
nerve that innervates the diaphragm - correct answer-phrenic nerve
Synergist - correct answer-muscle that aids the prime mover
precentral gyrus - correct answer-primary motor cortex
osteoclasts function - correct answer-resorption, breakdown of bone matrix
Osteoblasts - correct answer-bone forming cells
Agglutination - correct answer-clumping of red blood cells
pulmonary valve - correct answer-This valve is located between the right ventricle and the
pulmonary artery. It stops blood from flowing backward into the right ventricle.
aortic valve - correct answer-The semilunar valve separating the aorta from the left
ventricle that prevents blood from flowing back into the left ventricle.
blood colloid osmotic pressure - correct answer-The largest driving force for pulling fluid
from the interstitial spaces back into the capillaries is
muscles of the hamstrings - correct answer-biceps femoris, semitendinosus,
semimembranosus
Diaphysis - correct answer-shaft of a long bone
Condyle - correct answer-A smooth, rounded articular process
protein fibers of connective tissue - correct answer-elastic fibers, collagen, reticular fibers
negative feedback - correct answer-a mechanism of response in which a stimulus initiates
reactions that reduce the stimulus
