A needle would pierce the epidermal layers of the forearm in which order? 1. stratum basale 2. stratum corneum 3. stratum granulosum 4. stratum lucidum 5. stratum spinosum - 2, 3, 5, 1 - 1, 5, 3, 4, 2 - 2, 4, 3, 5, 1 - 1, 3, 5, 2, 4 - 2, 3, 4, 1, 5

2, 3, 5, 1 *This is a really mean TRICK question, so be careful. The stratum lucidum (#4) is ONLY in thick skinned areas. The question said "forearm" and the forearm is not very thick skinned, so we can't assume the lucidum is part of the sequence. So we pick the choice without the stratum lucidum (#4) which is the first choice. ** I actually missed this on the test too, so don't get tricked!

The type of burn that involves injury to the epidermis and the upper region of the dermis and is red, blistered, and painful is termed as a _____ degree burn.

2nd *For this, you just have to know 1st, 2nd, and 3rd degree burns and what each one entails. But the word "blistered" is your clue for 2nd degree burn. Blisters are always with 2nd degree.

Which of the following type of gland secretes its products into ducts? - endocrine - exocrine - sebaceous - sweat

Exocrine *Endocrine goes straight to the blood, exocrine goes thru a duct into the body and never comes into contact with the blood stream.

T/F: When an individual is exposed to extremely low air temps, the capillaries of the skin will dilate so that blood will flush to into the skin capillary beds and heat will be dissipated.

FALSE

T/F: Joe just burned his hand on a hot pot. A blister forms and the burn is painful; Joe's burn would be best described as a 3rd degree burn.

FALSE; "blister" is your key word here. Blistering is ALWAYS associated with 2nd degree burns.

T/F: Proximal means farther away from the origin of a body part.

FALSE; Proximal means closer

T/F: Melanin is found in the uppermost layer of skin and helps prevent water loss.

FALSE; That's the job of keratin. Keratin is the waterproofing mechanism.

T/F: The spinal cavity is part of the ventral body cavity.

FALSE; it is dorsal because the spine is on the backside of the body.

T/F: The hypogastric region is directly superior to the umbilical region.

FALSE; it is inferior to the umbilical region.

T/F: Sebaceous glands release sweat to help control body temp.

FALSE; sebaceous glands release sebum for hair, not sweat. Sebaceous glands have NOTHING to do with sweat.

T/F: Transverse or horizontal sections divide the body into anterior and posterior parts.

FALSE; that would be frontal (coronal) cut

T/F: Serous membranes line and lubricate joint cavities.

FALSE; that's synovial membranes

T/F: Melanocytes are nerve cells that function in touch reception.

FALSE; that's what Merkel cells do.

T/F: The heel of the foot constitutes the plantar region.

FALSE; the heel is the calcaneal region, the bottom of the foot is not the heel, it's the rest of the foot.

T/F: In anatomical positions, the palms are oriented medially.

FALSE; they are supine (meaning facing forward, as in you can see them)

The uppermost layer of the skin is? - called the dermis - full of keratin - fed by good supply of blood vessels - called the hypodermis

Full of keratin *The outermost layer is all dead and made up of keratinized cells (waterproofing cells)

Goblet cells are found in? - simple squamous epithelium - simple cuboidal epithelium - simple columnar epithelium - stratified squamous epithelium

Simple columnar epithelium *This another one where you just have to know where goblet cells are found.

Epithelial tissue that consists of one layer of cells and flattened like fish scales is called? - stratified squamous epithelium - simple squamous epithelium - stratified cuboidal epithelium - simple cuboidal epithelium

Simple squamous epithelium *This is one where you just have to know the different types of epithelial tissue. But you did have clues here like "flattened" and "one layer". If it's "one layer" then you know it has to be "simple something". Simple means one.

T/F: Hair is produced by the hair bulb and is composed primarily of dead keratinized cells.

TRUE

T/F: The pinkish hue of healthy individuals with fair skin is the result of the crimson color of oxygenated hemoglobin circulating in the dermal capillaries and reflecting through the dermis.

TRUE

T/F: There is no physical structure that separates the abdominal cavity from the pelvic cavity.

TRUE

Which ventral cavity subdivision has no body protection? - thoracic - pelvic - abdominal - cranial - spinal

abdominal *All the others have bones protecting them but the abdominal cavity (where your stomach and other things is) has no bones there. The rib cage is part of the thoracic cavity so don't confuse those bones as part of the abdominal cavity.

cartilage *"Chondro" means cartilage. A chondrocyte is a cartilage cell.

Which of the following tissues are avascular? - skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle - bone and dense connective tissue - cartilage and epithelium - areolar and adipose tissue

cartilage and epithelium *Avascular means "no blood vessels". If something lacks blood vessels, then it can't heal well. Cartilage is known for being avascular as it heals very slowly due to having no blood vessels.

which of the following are characterized as tough fibers in bundles that provide great strength, as needed in bones and tendons, and are made of the most abundant protein in the body? - collagen fibers - elastic fibers - reticular fibers - cotton fibers

collagen ***So there are tons of clues in the question. First, the words "tough" and "great strength", and then it says "most abundant protein in the body". Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body and is "elastic" which gives "great strength" and makes it "tough".

cutaneous membrane

What is the first threat to life form a massive 3rd degree burn? - infection - dehydration - unbearable pain - loss of immune function - blood loss

dehydration *The main thing about 3rd degree burns is that all your waterproofing cells are gone, so now you're losing all the water out of your body, also known as dehydration. This will kill you if prolonged.

Tissue found in ligaments and tendons

dense REGULAR connective tissue *You just have to know the differences between dense regular and dense irregular connective tissue; Dense REGULAR tissue is specifically used in tendons and ligaments. Dense IRREGULAR is used in heart valves and the dermis layer of the skin.

Which of the following contains cells arranged concentrically around a nutrient canal, and matrix is hard due to calcium salts? - hyaline cartilage - osseous tissue (bone) - areolar connective tissue - adipose connective tissue

osseous tissue (bone) *Your clue in this question was the "calcium salts". You drink milk to keep your bones growing, milk is all calcium. Calcium is in bone. So the answer was bone tissue.

In describing the relationship between the patellar and popliteal regions: - patellar is superior to popliteal region - patellar is proximal to popliteal region - patellar is lateral to popliteal region - patellar is anterior to popliteal region

patellar is anterior to popliteal *Patellar and popliteal are both regions of the knee. The patellar being the front of the knee where the knee-cap is and the popliteal being the back of the knee where the leg folds. Anterior means "in front of" or "front side" so the patellar region is "in front of" the popliteal region.

spinal cord and brain *Dorsal means the backside of the body. The spine is alone the backside of the body and the brain is actually more towards the back of the head. All the other choices are in the front side (ventral) of the body.

Which of these body regions is located on the anterior side of the body? - popliteal - sternal - lumbar - gluteal

sternal *To answer this question, you need to know that "anterior" means the "front side of the body". It also helps to know the regions of the body, because all the choices are regional terms. - popliteal (knee) - sternal (sternum/chest) - lumbar (lower back) - gluteal (butt) The sternal region is the only one on the anterior (front) side.

The epidermis is composed of? - simple columnar epithelium - stratified squamous epithelium - adipose tissue - areolar tissue - dense fibrous connective tissue

the arrector pili muscle contract to stand hair upright *When your cold, you get "chill bumps" on your arms and legs. When this happens, the hair is standing up which is caused by the arrector pili muscles.

The lungs and heart are situated in the ____ body cavity.

thoracic *this is the chest area

The epithelial cell connections that prevent leaking of digestive enzymes between the cells are called? - desmosomes - gap junctions - plasmodesmata - tight junctions

tight junctions *Tight junctions are the ones that are like "quilts" and keep fluids from leaking. The word "leaking" was your clue. **You don't have to know what a digestive enzyme is, that's just extra info to confuse you.

Which type of section could be used to separate the thoracic cavity from the abdominopelvic cavity? - coronal - sagittal - dorsal - ventral - transverse

transverse *A transversal cut is a horizontal cut. So yes, this would separate the chest and the abdominal area. "Trans" means across. Also, you can immediately eliminate the choices "dorsal" and ventral" cuz these aren't even types of cuts. Make sure to know the different cuts.
