What are the 5 parts that make up the spinal column?
Cervical, Thoracic, Lumbar, Sacral, and the Coccyx.
What is the leaf shape flexible cartilage that covers the opening into the Larynx?
Epiglottis
Which Vessels contains oxygenated blood and deoxygenated blood?
Arteries contain oxygenated blood and Veins contain deoxygenated blood.
Which organ is responsible for regulating blood sugar levels?
Pancreas
Difference between solid organs and hollow organs?
Solid organs have increased vasculature which have an increased probability of hemorrhaging when injured.
Hollow organs have an increased probability of infection and inflammation when injured.
Name at least 5 of the 7 patient positions.
Supine, Prone, Lateral Recumbent (recovery), Fowlers, Semi-Fowlers, Trendelenburg position, and Shock position.
Name the three parts that make up the Pharynx?
Nasopharynx
Oropharynx
Laryngopharynx (hypopharynx)
Red blood cells, Plasma, Platelets, White blood cells.
Which gland releases hormones Epinephrine and Norepinephrine?
Adrenal Gland
What does the Systolic blood pressure represent?
The force exerted by the blood on the walls of the arteries when the left ventricle contracts.
Name at least 7 of the 9 Cranial Bones
Frontal bone, Parietal bone, Temporal bone, Occipital bone, Nasal bone, Orbital bone, Zygomatic bone, Maxilla, and Mandible.
If liquid, blood, or vomit, moves past the epiglottis into the Larynx, this called what?
Aspiration
How much blood is contained in the body of an average adult?
4 to 5 liters of blood.
Difference between Afferent Nerves and Efferent Nerves?
Afferent Nerves carry sensory information towards the brain.
Efferent Nerves carry sensory information to the body.
Difference between Abduction and Adduction?
Difference between Proximal and Distal?
Abduction is movement away from the midline of the body. Adduction is movement towards the midline of the body.
Proximal is near the point of reference and distal is distant, or far from the point of reference.

Ball and Socket joint, Condyloid joint, Gliding joint, Hinge Joint, Pivot joint, and Saddle joint
Explain the difference between Respiration and Ventilation.
Respiration - Is the process of moving oxygen and carbon dioxide in and out of the alveoli.
Ventilation - is the changes in pressure inside the chest that causes air flow into or out of the lungs.
Resight the full flow of blood through the Heart!
Inferior Vena Cava -- Right Atrium -- Tricuspid Valve, Right Ventricle -- Pulmonary Valve -- Pulmonary Artery -- Lungs -- Pulmonary Vein -- Left Atrium -- Mitral (Bicuspid) Valve -- Left Ventricle -- Aortic Valve -- Aorta.
Explain what happens to the body during a Sympathetic Response (Fight or Flight) and a Parasympathetic Response (Feed and Breed).
Sympathetic: Pupils dilate, Bronchioles dilate, Heart rate increases, Blood vessels constrict, Hormones are released, Gastric Secretions decrease.
Parasympathetic: Pupils constrict, Bronchioles constrict, Heart rate decreases, Blood vessels dilate, Gastric Secretions increase.
Name and describe the three types of Muscle?
Skeletal Muscle - Voluntary, under control of the brain.
Smooth Muscle - Involuntary, automatic muscular functions of the body.
Cardiac Muscles - Involuntary, suited specifically for the Heart with the property of automaticity.
