Chapter 1: Introduction To Physiology
Multiple Choice.
1) Physiology Is The Study Of
A) The Structure Of The Body.
B) The Tissues And Organs Of The Body At The Microscopic Level.
C) Growth And Reproduction.
D) The Normal Functions Of The Organ Systems.
E) The Facial Features As An Indication Of Personality.
CORRECT ANS> D
Rationale: Physiology Focuses On The Functions Of Organ Systems.
A) Anatomy Studies Structure, Not Function. B) Microscopic Analysis Relates More To Histology.
C) While Growth And Reproduction Are Physiological Processes, They Are Not The Focus Of The
Field As A Whole.
E) This Relates To Psychology, Not Physiology.
2) The Literal Meaning Of The Term Physiology Is Knowledge Of
A) Organs.
B) Nature.
C) Science.
D) Chemistry.
E) Math.
CORRECT ANS> B
Rationale: "Physiology" Derives From Greek, Meaning "Knowledge Of Nature."
A) Organs Relate To Anatomy, Not The Broader Scope Of Physiology.
C) Science Is A General Term; Physiology Is A Specific Branch.
D) Chemistry Is Part Of Physiology But Does Not Encompass Its Meaning.
E) Math Is Unrelated To The Term.
3) Because Anatomy And Physiology Have Different Definitions, They Are Usually Considered
Separately In Studies Of The Body.
,Human Physiology An Integrated Approach 8th Edition (Silverthorn)
A) True
B) False
CORRECT ANS> A
Rationale: Anatomy (Structure) And Physiology (Function) Are Distinct Fields, Typically Studied
Separately.
B) While They Are Interrelated, Their Definitions Warrant Separate Consideration.
4) The Correct Order From The Smallest To The Largest Is
A) 2, 4, 1, 3, 6, 5.
B) 4, 2, 1, 6, 3, 5.
C) 4, 2, 1, 3, 6, 5.
D) 4, 2, 3, 1, 6, 5.
E) 6, 4, 5, 2, 3, 1.
CORRECT ANS> C
Rationale: The Correct Order Is Molecule (4), Cell (2), Tissue (1), Organ (3), Organ System (6),
Organism (5).
A) Incorrect Order;
B) Places Organ System Before Organ.
D) Incorrect Sequence;
E) Incorrectly Lists Organism First.
5) This Type Of Explanation Is
A) Mechanistic.
B) Theological.
C) Teleological.
D) Metalogical.
E) Scatological.
CORRECT ANS> C
Rationale: Teleological Explanations Focus On The Purpose Or Function Of Processes.
A) Mechanistic Would Describe How Glucose Is Transported, Not Why.
6) This Type Of Explanation Is
A) Mechanistic.
, Human Physiology An Integrated Approach 8th Edition (Silverthorn)
B) Theological.
C) Teleological.
D) Metalogical.
E) Scatological.
CORRECT ANS> A
Rationale: A Mechanistic Explanation Describes The Specific Processes Involved In Glucose
Transport.
C) Teleological Focuses On Purpose, While This Is About The Mechanism Itself.
7) Which Of The Following Is A Buffer Zone Between The Outside World And Most Of The Cells
Of The Body?
A) Blood
B) Lumen
C) Lymph
D) Extracellular Fluid
E) All Of The Answers Are Correct.
CORRECT ANS> E
Rationale: All Options Serve As Buffer Zones In Various Contexts.
A, B, C, And D Each Serve Specific Functions, But Collectively They Illustrate How Different Fluids
Act As Buffers.
8) Which Of The Following Is One Of Cannon's "Internal Secretions"?
A) Hormones
B) Nutrients
C) Water
D) Inorganic Ions
E) None Of The Answers Are Correct.
CORRECT ANS> A
Rationale: Hormones Are Indeed Considered "Internal Secretions."
B) Nutrients And C) Water Are Not Classified As Internal Secretions In This Context.
9) The Study Of Body Function In A Disease State Is
A) Necrology.
