Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Accuracy refers to how close a measurement is to the true or accepted value, while precision refers to how close individual measurements are to each other. If the measurements are accurate but not precise, it means they consistently hit the target value but may vary in terms of how closely grouped they are. Choice B, 'They are accurate but not precise,' correctly describes the scenario where the measurements are on target but not consistently close to each other. Choice A is incorrect because it implies both accuracy and precision, which is not the case here. Choice C is incorrect because it suggests precision without accuracy, while choice D is incorrect as it indicates neither accuracy nor precision, which is not a typical scenario for measurements.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Lateral. Lateral refers to a position farther away from the midline of the body. In the example provided, the little toe is indeed lateral to the big toe on the same foot. This is in contrast to 'medial,' which means closer to the midline. 'Proximal' refers to a position closer to the point of attachment or the trunk of the body, while 'distal' refers to a position farther from the point of attachment or the trunk of the body.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Epidermis, dermis, hypodermis. The three layers of the skin are the epidermis (outer layer), dermis (middle layer), and hypodermis (inner layer of fat and connective tissue). The hypodermis is also known as the subcutaneous tissue and is primarily composed of adipose (fat) tissue, providing insulation and padding to the body. Choice A is incorrect as 'subdermis' is not a recognized layer of the skin. Choice C is incorrect as 'dermis' is the middle layer, not the outer layer. Choice D is incorrect as the layer below the dermis is the hypodermis, not specifically an 'adipose layer.'

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Posterior. 'Posterior' is the anatomical term that refers to the back of the body. It is the opposite of 'anterior,' which refers to the front of the body. 'Superior' typically describes a structure that is positioned above another structure, while 'inferior' refers to a structure that is below another. In this case, the term 'posterior' specifically indicates the back of the body, making it the most appropriate choice among the options provided.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Diastolic pressure. The bottom number in a blood pressure reading represents the diastolic pressure, which indicates the lowest pressure in the arteries when the heart is resting between beats. This value is important in understanding the overall health of the cardiovascular system. Choice B, Systolic pressure, is the top number in a blood pressure reading and represents the pressure in the arteries when the heart is contracting. Choice C, Pulse rate, refers to the number of times the heart beats in a minute. Choice D, Mean arterial pressure, is a calculated value using both systolic and diastolic pressures to provide an average pressure in the arteries during a cardiac cycle, but it is not the bottom number in a blood pressure reading.
