ATI TEAS Science Test Questions

Question 1 of 5

Where is the abdominopelvic cavity in relation to the thoracic cavity?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The abdominopelvic cavity is located inferior to the thoracic cavity. The thoracic cavity contains organs like the heart and lungs, while the abdominopelvic cavity includes the abdomen and pelvis regions. Therefore, the correct answer is D, as the abdominopelvic cavity is positioned below (inferior to) the thoracic cavity. Choice A (Dorsal) is incorrect as it refers to the backside of the body. Choice B (Ventral) is incorrect as it refers to the front side of the body. Choice C (Superior) is incorrect as it indicates a position above the thoracic cavity, which is not the case.

Question 2 of 5

Which of the following represents the three main parts of a neuron?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: A neuron consists of three main parts: dendrites, axon, and cell body. Dendrites receive signals from other neurons or sensory receptors. The cell body (soma) contains the nucleus and organelles essential for neuron function. The axon transmits electrical impulses away from the cell body to other neurons, muscles, or glands. Choice A is incorrect because an effector is not a part of a neuron. Choice C is incorrect because a receptor is not a component of a neuron but rather interacts with neurons. Choice D is incorrect because the synapse is a junction between neurons for signal transmission, not a structural part of a neuron.

Question 3 of 5

Which of the following terms means toward the front of the body?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Anterior. The term 'anterior' specifically refers to the front of the body. In anatomical terms, anterior is the opposite of posterior, which means toward the back of the body. Superior and inferior, choices A and C, respectively, refer to top and bottom directions, not front and back. Therefore, 'Anterior' is the most appropriate term for describing a position toward the front of the body.

Question 4 of 5

Which of the following correctly lists the normal blood flow through the heart?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct order of normal blood flow through the heart is as follows: from the body, blood flows into the right atrium, then to the right ventricle, followed by the lungs through the pulmonary artery for oxygenation. Oxygenated blood then returns to the heart through the pulmonary veins into the left atrium, then moves into the left ventricle before being pumped out to the body. Choice B correctly depicts this sequential flow of blood through the heart. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not follow the typical path of blood flow through the heart.

Question 5 of 5

Which of the following describes an experiment?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Option D describes an experiment because it involves testing the effects of a new drug on a group of participants. In an experiment, researchers intentionally manipulate an independent variable (in this case, the new drug) to observe its effects on a dependent variable (the participants' health outcomes). This method allows for establishing cause-and-effect relationships between variables, which is a key characteristic of experimental research design. Choices A, B, and C do not represent experiments. Choice A involves observational analysis of math grades, choice B involves observational analysis of health trends, and choice C involves a survey, none of which involve manipulating variables to establish cause-and-effect relationships.
