Answer: Visceral

10) ________ peritoneum is the serous membrane that covers the intestines.

Answer: Metabolism

12) ________ is a broad term that covers all chemical reactions that occur within the body cells.

Answer: They act to reduce friction and allow the organs to slide across cavity walls.

13) What is the function of the serous membranes?

Answer: Anatomical terms are precise words that have limited usage which prevents confusion when describing the location of body parts.

18) Why is anatomical terminology necessary?

Answer: endocrine

2) The ________ system secretes hormones that regulate growth processes and nutrient usage by body cells.

Answer: Calcaneal

4) ________ is a term that describes the heel region.

Answer: proximal

5) The elbow is ________ to the wrist.

Answer: Physiology

7) ________ is explained by chemical and physical principles and is concerned with the function of specific organs or organic systems.

27) A 28) B 29) A 30) C 31) B

Match the following cavities: 27) Stomach. 28) Heart. 29) Uterus. 30) Brain. 31) Lungs. A) Abdominopelvic B) Thoracic C) Cranial

11) ________ physiology concerns urine production and kidney function.

Answer: The body is erect, arms hanging at the sides, palms forward, and thumbs pointed away from the midline.

14) Fully describe the anatomical position for the human body.

Answer: Larger structures of the body that can be seen with the naked eye.

15) Gross anatomy refers to:

Answer: Yes, carbon dioxide is a metabolic waste the lungs excrete.

16) Can lungs carry out excretory functions? Explain.

Answer: The statement is backwards. The higher we go the less atmospheric pressure, therefore less oxygen.

17) The higher we go in the mountains the greater the atmospheric pressure which causes a loss of oxygen. Comment on this statement.

Answer: deep

19) The lungs are ________ to the skin.

Answer: A cross section or a transverse section.

2) A surgeon removed a section of tissue along a transverse plane for microscopic examination. What two names would the section be called?

Answer: orbital

20) The five cavities of the head are cranial, oral, nasal, middle ear, and ______.

Answer: The pleural space contains a small amount of fluid that acts as a lubricant, allowing the pleurae to slide smoothly over each other as the lungs expand and contract. Pleurisy is an inflammation of the parietal pleura of the lungs. When inflammation occurs in the pleural space, the pleurae do not slide smoothly and this causes severe pain.

3) Judy is 16 years old and collapses on the gym floor in severe pain to her chest wall. She is rushed by ambulance to the emergency room. Judy is diagnosed with pleurisy and is given an anti-inflammatory through the intravenous route. Explain why an anti-inflammatory would be prescribed for someone with pleurisy.

Answer: Olecranal

3) ________ is a term that describes the back of the elbow.

Answer: As we age, our bodyʹs control systems become less efficient. As a result our internal environment becomes less and less stable.

4) Explain why an 80-year-old woman requires a much longer time to recover from the flu versus a woman who is age 30.

Answer: The wound is located on the outer side of the leg.

5) The nurse charted: ʺClient has an open wound located on lateral aspect of leg.ʺ Describe where the wound is located.

Answer: middle ear

6) The ________ cavity contains tiny bones that transmit sound vibrations to the organ of hearing in the inner ear.

Answer: Positive feedback loops are common in pathophysiological perpetuation of disease. For example, arteriosclerotic hypertension results in positive feedback mechanisms that enhance and propagate the initial step in the chain of events, which is hypertension.

6) The client was admitted to the hospital with hypertension. The development of arteriosclerosis has increased peripheral resistance to blood flow, worsening his hypertension. This is an example of what type of feedback loop and why?

Answer: Homeostasis

8) ________ is a dynamic equilibrium of your internal environment.

Answer: pelvic

9) The ________ cavity contains the bladder, some reproductive organs, and the rectum.

Answer: The abdominal organs are the least protected in the body because they are not surrounded by a bony covering such as the ribs, pelvis, or cranium.
