Question

for each of the muscle characteristics described in the left - column, select the type of muscle from the right - column. 23. attaches to the bone a. skeletal 24. found in the walls of the gastrointestinal tract b. smooth 25. forms the major muscle mass of the body c. cardiac 26. under the direct control of the brain 27. found only in the heart 28. cannot function on anaerobic metabolism 29. responsible for all bodily movement 30. can generate its own electrical impulses for each of the parts of the nervous system in the left - column, select the phrase in the right - column with which it is associated. 31. spinal cord a. exits the brain through an opening at the base of the skull 32. central nervous system b. transmit electrical impulses to the muscles, causing them to contract 33. sensory nerves c. brain and spinal cord 34. motor nerves d. links the central nervous system to various organs in the body 35. brain e. carry sensations of taste and touch to the brain 36. peripheral nervous system f. controls all functions of the body multiple choice read each item carefully and then select the one best response. 1. which of the following would be considered an underlying cause of shock? a. increased blood volume b. increased pumping ability of the heart c. loss of blood vessel control d. decrease in anaerobic metabolism 2. in the female, what structure carries the ovum to the uterus? a. ovary b. fallopian tube c. vas deferens d. seminal vesicles 3. the leaf - shaped flap of tissue that prevents food and liquid from entering the trachea is called the: a. uvula b. epiglottis c. laryngopharynx d. cricothyroid membrane

Explanation:

1. Shock can be caused by loss of blood - vessel control as it can lead to inadequate blood flow. Increased blood volume and increased heart - pumping ability are not causes of shock, and a decrease in anaerobic metabolism is not an underlying cause of shock.
2. The fallopian tube carries the ovum from the ovary to the uterus. The ovary produces the ovum, the vas deferens is part of the male reproductive system, and the seminal vesicles are also male reproductive structures.
3. The epiglottis is the leaf - shaped flap of tissue that prevents food and liquid from entering the trachea during swallowing. The uvula is a small fleshy extension at the back of the soft palate, the laryngopharynx is part of the pharynx, and the cricothyroid membrane is a ligament in the larynx.

Answer:

1. C. Loss of blood vessel control
2. B. Fallopian tube
3. B. epiglottis
