Identify the three sections of the sternum from most superior to most inferior.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The sternum has three parts, from superior to inferior: manubrium (top, rib 1-2 attachment), body (middle, rib 3-7 attachment), and xiphoid process (bottom). 'manubrium, body and xiphoid process' is the correct order.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Female hips are broader due to flared iliac bones, adapting the pelvis for childbirth. Ischial and pubic differences exist, but ilium flaring is primary; thickness is unrelated, making 'Female iliac bones are more flared' correct.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The lambdoidal suture separates the parietal bones from the occipital bone at the skull’s posterior. Coronal is frontal-parietal, sagittal is between parietals, and squamosal is temporal-parietal, making 'lambdoidal' correct.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The atlas (C1) and axis (C2) form a pivot joint, allowing rotation (e.g., head shaking 'no'). Gliding is sliding, condyloid is two-plane, and hinge is one-plane, making 'pivot' correct.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Bones store calcium, a key mineral for strength and physiological functions (e.g., muscle contraction). Vitamin C is not stored, oxygen is in lungs, and potassium is cellular, making 'calcium' correct.
