Question 1 The ability of a muscle to generate tension immediately after stimulation is dependent on which of the following? 1. myosin interaction with the M line 2. actin attachments to the Z line 3. overlap of myosin and actin 4. none of the above 2. Question 2 Air is warmed and humidified in the nasal passages, which helps to do which of the following? 1. decrease sensitivity during breathing 2. all of the above 3. ward off infection 4. prevent damage to the lungs 3. Question 3 Which class of hormones can diffuse through plasma membranes? 1. glycoprotein hormones 2. amino acid-derived hormones


3. peptide hormones 4. lipid-derived hormones 4. Question 4 The majority of carbon dioxide in the blood is transported by which of the following? 1. binding to plasma proteins 2. conversion to bicarbonate 3. dissolution in the blood 4. binding to hemoglobin 5. Question 5 A rise in blood glucose levels triggers release of insulin from the pancreas. This mechanism of hormone production is stimulated by: 1. hormonal stimuli 2. negative stimuli 3. neural stimuli 4. humoral stimuli 6. Question 6 A scientist hypothesizes that the pancreas’s hormone production is controlled by neural stimuli. Which observation would support this hypothesis? 1. Insulin is produced in response to sudden stress without a rise in blood glucose. 2. Insulin is produced in response to a rise in glucagon levels. 3. Beta cells express epinephrine receptors. 4. Insulin is produced in response to a rise in blood glucose in the brain. 7. Question 7 Which mechanism of hormonal stimulation would be affected if signaling and hormone release from the hypothalamus was blocked? 1. humoral and hormonal stimuli 2. neural and humoral stimuli


3. hormonal and negative stimuli 4. hormonal and neural stimuli 8. Question 8 Recent studies suggest that blue light exposure can impact human circadian rhythms. This suggests that blue light disrupts the function of which gland(s)? 1. pineal 2. thyroid 3. pituitary 4. adrenal 9. Question 9 Osteoporosis is a condition where bones become weak and brittle. It is caused by an imbalance in the activity of which cells? 1. osteoclasts and osteoblasts 2. osteocytes and chondrocytes 3. osteoblasts and chondrocytes 4. osteoclasts and osteocytes 10. Question 10 The elbow is an example of which type of joint? 1. hinge 2. saddle 3. gliding 4. pivot 11. Question 11 Drinking alcoholic beverages causes an increase in urine output. This most likely occurs because alcohol: 1. stimulates TSH release. 2. stimulates ADH release.


3. inhibits TSH release. 4. inhibits ADH release. 12. Question 12 When does alveolar ventilation remain constant? 1. the respiratory rate and the volume of air per breath are increased 2. the respiratory rate and the volume of air per breath are decreased 3. the respiratory rate is increased while the volume of air per breath is decreased
