Slightly movable joints are also called amphiarthroses.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Amphiarthroses are slightly movable joints (e.g., pubic symphysis, intervertebral discs), per joint classification. This is correct, making 'True' the answer.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The support function of the skeleton involves providing a framework to shape the body, support structures, and bear weight (e.g., standing). B is movement, C is protection, and D is storage, making 'The body is shaped by the skeleton...' the support function.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The spine (vertebral column) has intervertebral discs, making its joints (e.g., between vertebrae) slightly movable (amphiarthroses). The skull is fixed, clavicle and pelvis have synovial joints, making 'Spine' correct.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Haemopoiesis (blood cell formation) occurs in bone marrow, producing red and white blood cells. Haemostasis is blood clotting, peristalsis is digestive movement, and glycogenolysis is glucose breakdown—none are skeletal functions. Answer is A, as per the document.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Long bones are longer than wide (e.g., humerus, tibia, metacarpals). Carpals (wrist bones) are short bones, roughly cube-shaped, not long. Answer is C, per the document.
