General Anatomy and Physiology QUESTIONS AND
ASNWERS YEAR 2025.
Chemical - ✅✅atoms and molecules
Atomic Level - ✅✅atoms are definedd as the smallest unit of an element that still
maintains the properties of that element
Molecular Level - ✅✅atoms combine to form molecules which can have entriely
different properties than the atoms they contain
Cell - ✅✅smallest unit of life that can function independently; they are enclosed by a
membrane or cell wall and in multicellular organisms often perform specific functions
Tissue - ✅✅a group of similar cells with similar functions, four types: epithelial,
connective, muscle, nervous
Organ Level - ✅✅two or more types of tissue that together perform a function
Organ System - ✅✅a group of organs that considered a unit because of a common
set of functions
Organism - ✅✅a whole being that can function and live on its own with several organ
systems that function together
Superior/Rostral - ✅✅up, above
Inferior/Caudal - ✅✅down, below
Anterior/Ventral - ✅✅front of the body
Posterior/Dorsal: - ✅✅back of body
Proximal - ✅✅Closer to the point of attachment
