Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The triceps reflex causes the triceps muscle to contract, leading to the extension of the arm. This reflex is a protective response to sudden stretching of the triceps muscle, as seen when a physician taps the triceps tendon during a physical examination. Choice A is the correct answer as it accurately reflects the action of the triceps reflex. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they describe actions that are not associated with the triceps reflex. Biceps contraction, forearm supination, flexion, triceps relaxation, and pronation are not part of the triceps reflex arc.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: This mechanism is an example of negative feedback. Negative feedback systems work to counteract changes in the body and maintain a stable internal environment (homeostasis). In this case, the release of insulin in response to high glucose levels is followed by a reduction in insulin release when glucose levels drop. This response helps regulate glucose levels and return them to a normal range, demonstrating the characteristic of negative feedback where the body's response opposes the initial stimulus to maintain equilibrium. Positive feedback would amplify the initial change rather than counteract it, so it is not the correct choice. Stress response and parasympathetic regulation are not directly involved in this glucose regulation process, making them incorrect choices.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Weight is correctly identified as an extensive property. Extensive properties are dependent on the amount of the substance present. Weight is directly proportional to the quantity of the substance, making it an extensive property. In contrast, density, conductivity, and malleability are intensive properties, which remain constant regardless of the amount of substance. Therefore, the correct answer is 'Weight' as it changes with the quantity of the substance, aligning with the definition of an extensive property.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The lateral malleolus is a bony prominence on the lateral side of the ankle and is not part of the knee anatomy. The other options - medial collateral ligament, patella, and lateral meniscus - are all structures within the knee joint. The medial collateral ligament is located on the inner side of the knee, the patella is the kneecap, and the lateral meniscus is a cartilage structure within the knee joint. Therefore, the correct answer is C, lateral malleolus.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: 'Superior.' The scapula is located superior to the olecranon. In anatomical terms, 'superior' refers to a position above or higher than a reference point. 'Distal' is a term used to describe a position farther away from the point of attachment or origin. 'Lateral' refers to a position further away from the midline of the body. 'Ventral' refers to the front or anterior side of the body. In this case, the scapula being superior to the olecranon means it is positioned above the olecranon bone.
