Introduction to Anatomy and Physiology Lesson 6.1 Study Questions Questions 
            
        Question 1 of 5
Which of the following is NOT found in the abdominopelvic cavity?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The abdominopelvic cavity houses stomach, liver, and bladder, but not the heart, which is thoracic. Anatomy's cavity division ensures organ placement clarity, with the heart above the diaphragm.
Question 2 of 5
Which membrane inflammation is correctly matched with the organ involved?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Meningitis inflames meninges around the brain and spinal cord, unlike pericarditis (heart), pleurisy (lungs), or peritonitis (abdomen). Anatomical membrane specificity ensures accurate diagnosis, making B correct.
Question 3 of 5
A disease that occurs suddenly and usually lasts for only a short time is called:
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Acute diseases onset rapidly and resolve quickly (e.g., flu), unlike chronic (A, prolonged), systemic (B, widespread), or local (D, limited). Anatomy and medicine use this for temporal classification, confirming C.
Question 4 of 5
Which plane divides the human body into dorsal (back) and ventral (front) or posterior and anterior planes?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The coronal plane, divides the body into dorsal (back) and ventral (front), or posterior and anterior sections. Sagittal splits left-right, transverse/horizontal (C, D) upper-lower, and superior isn't a plane. This frontal plane is vital in anatomy for visualizing front-back relationships e.g., sternum anterior to spine used in cross-sectional studies like MRI, confirming B.
Question 5 of 5
Which body system provides the cells of the body with nutrients?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The digestive system, breaks down food into nutrients (e.g., glucose) for cells, absorbed via intestines. Respiratory supplies oxygen, cardiovascular transports, endocrine regulates via hormones, and urinary excretes waste. Anatomically, digestion's nutrient extraction e.g., small intestine villi directly feeds cells, distinguishing B as the provider.
