Chapter 01: Organization of the Body

Patton: Anatomy and Physiology, 10th Edition

MULTIPLE CHOICE

• Which of the following describes anatomy?
• Using devices to investigate parameters such as heart rate and blood pressure
• Investigating human structure via dissections and other methods
• Studying the unusual manner in which an organism responds to painful stimuli
• Examining the physiology of life

ANS: B DIF: Memorization REF: p. 3

TOP: Anatomy and Physiology

2. Systemic anatomy is a term that refers to:

• physiological investigation at a microscopic level.
• anatomical investigation that begins in the head and neck and concludes at the feet.
• anatomical investigation that uses an approach of studying the body by

systems—groups of organs having a common function.

• anatomical investigation at the molecular level.

ANS: C DIF: Memorization REF: p. 4

TOP: Anatomy and Physiology

• Physiology can be subdivided according to the studied.
• type of organism
• organizational level
• systemic function

• All of the above are correct.

4. Physiology:

• recognizes the unchanging (as opposed to the dynamic) nature of things.
• investigates the body’s structure.
• is concerned with organisms and does not deal with different levels of organization

such as cells and systems.

• is the science that examines the function of living organisms and their parts.

ANS: D DIF: Memorization REF: p. 4

TOP: Physiology

• One of the basic principles of the standardized terminology is the avoidance of , or

terms that are based on a person’s name.

• homonyms
• antonyms
• eponyms
• synonyms

6. Metabolism refers to:

• the chemical basis of life.
• the sum of all the physical and chemical reactions occurring in the body.
• an organization of similar cells specialized to perform a certain function.
• a subdivision of physiology.

ANS: B DIF: Application REF: p. 5 TOP: Characteristics of Life

7. From smallest to largest, the levels of organization of the body are:

• organism, chemical, tissue, cellular, organ, system, organelle.
• chemical, microscopic, cellular, tissue, organ, system, organism.
• organism, system, organ, tissue, cellular, organelle, chemical.
• chemical, organelle, cellular, tissue, organ, system, organism.

ANS: D DIF: Memorization REF: p. 6

8. The smallest living units of structure and function in the body are:

• molecules.
• cells.
• organelles.
• atoms.
