What is the role of the Medulla Oblongata in the brainstem?

A) Regulating heart rate and blood pressure
B) Controlling the sense of smell
C) Maintaining balance and coordination
D) Processing visual information
A) Regulating heart rate and blood pressure

The medulla oblongata is the connection between the brainstem and the spinal cord, carrying
multiple important functional centers. It is comprised of the cardiovascular-respiratory regulation
system, descending motor tracts, ascending sensory tracts, and origin of cranial nerves IX, X, XI,
and XII.
The concrete operations stage of cognitive development, defined by Piaget, occurs at what age?

A) 2-7 years
B) 5-7 years
C) 4-8 years
D) 7-11 years
D) 7-11 years

The concrete operational stage is the third stage in Piaget's theory of cognitive development and
is characterized by the development of logical thought.
Important things that happen in the concrete operational stage include a great understanding of
logic, reversibility, and conservation. Children also become less egocentric during this stage.
Which of the following structures has an important role in resonation for only three sounds in
English?

A) Pharynx
B) Soft palate
C) Nasal cavity
D) Oral cavity

,C) Nasal cavity

You wish to assess a child's phonemic awareness via phoneme manipulation. Select the example
that applies to phoneme manipulation.

A) Here is a picture of a hotdog. I'll say the first part of the word and you will complete it. Here
is a hot ____.
B) Say dig. Now say it backward.
C) Say seat. Now say seat, but change the /s/ and /t/ around.
D) Say ball without the /b/.
C) Say seat. Now say seat, but change the /s/ and /t/ around.

Phoneme manipulation is being able to insert and delete sounds in words. This skill is important
as it allows readers to test alternatives for spellings that represent more than one sound
A mother brings her child, Tessa, for an evaluation of her speech. The mother is concerned
because even at the age of 5, Tessa introduces herself as "Kessa." Tessa is using the phonological
pattern of:

A) Fronting
B) Consonant harmony
C) Devoicing
D) Backing
D) Backing

Backing is a phonological process and it involves substituting sounds that should be made at the
front of the mouth for sounds generated at the back of the mouth. For example, "tap" could
become "cap" or "dot" could become "got".
Select the true statement.

A) T-units contain an independent clause and one or more subordinate clauses.
B) T-units are types of linguistic units.
C) C-units may never contain incomplete sentences produced in response to questions.
D)C-units do not contain one or more independent clauses.
A) T-units contain an independent clause and one or more subordinate clauses.

As defined by Kellogg W. Hunt (1964), the T-unit, or minimal terminable unit of language, was
intended to measure the smallest word group that could be considered a grammatical sentence,
regardless of how it was punctuated. Research suggests that the length of a T-unit may be used as
an index of syntactic complexity.

,What is the Bernoulli effect?

A) The pressure decrease between the edges of the vocal folds that causes the "sucking" motion
of the vocal folds toward one another
B) The wave that travels across the superior surface of the vocal fold about two-thirds of the way
to the lateral edge of the fold
C) The temporary stoppage of air by the closed (or nearly closed) vocal folds that builds up
subglottal air pressure
D) The decrease in pressure of the gas or fluid caused by the increased speed of air passing
through a constriction
D) The decrease in pressure of the gas or fluid caused by the increased speed of air passing
through a constriction.

The Bernoulli effect refers to qualitative behavior of fluids and states that lowering the area of
fluid flow causes the increase in fluid flow velocity and decrease in pressure:
A2<A1→v2>v1 and P2<P1.
A new client is on your caseload with a medical history of a cleft lip and palate repair. Which of
the following speech deviations would you expect as a result of the cleft lip and palate?

A) Hyponasal resonance of vowels and semivowels
B) Strong pressure consonants and increased intraoral air pressure
C) Lack of nasality in stops and fricatives
D) Compensatory articulatory gestures in the vocal tract
D) Compensatory articulatory gestures in the vocal tract.

Even with early cleft repair, some children exhibit 'cleft palate speech' characterized by atypical
consonant productions, abnormal nasal resonance, abnormal nasal airflow, altered laryngeal
voice quality, and nasal or facial grimaces.
While treating aphasia and auditory comprehension, it is important to build factors that promote

A) Volume velocity is at a maximum
B) Pressure is at a minimum
C) Formant frequency will be lowered
D) Pressure is at a maximum
