Forms at L5 With the Caval opening into the Thoracic cavity at T8?
- A.
Inferior Vena Cava
- B.
Superior Vena Cava
- C.
Hemiazygos Vein
- D.
Posterior Intercostal Veins
Correct Answer
A. Inferior Vena CavaExplanation
The correct answer is Inferior Vena Cava. The explanation for this is that the Inferior Vena Cava is a large vein that carries deoxygenated blood from the lower body to the right atrium of the heart. It forms at the level of the fifth lumbar vertebra (L5) and enters the thoracic cavity at the level of the eighth thoracic vertebra (T8). This positioning allows it to receive blood from the lower extremities and abdominal organs and transport it back to the heart for oxygenation.Rate this question:

Bone involved in the nasal septum?
- A.
Vomer
- B.
Hyoid
- C.
Zygomatic Arch
- D.
Sphenoid
Correct Answer
A. VomerExplanation
The bone involved in the nasal septum is the vomer. The vomer is a thin, flat bone that forms the lower part of the nasal septum, separating the left and right nasal cavities. It is located in the midline of the skull and helps to support the nasal passages and maintain their shape. The hyoid bone is not involved in the nasal septum, as it is a U-shaped bone located in the neck. The zygomatic arch is a bony arch that forms the prominence of the cheek, and the sphenoid bone is a complex bone located at the base of the skull.Rate this question:

Relatively fixed point of muscular attachment?
- A.
Insertion
- B.
Origin
- C.
Belly
- D.
Aponeurosis
Correct Answer
B. OriginExplanation
The term "origin" refers to the relatively fixed point of muscular attachment. It is the point where the muscle attaches to a bone or a connective tissue structure that does not move during muscle contraction. The origin is typically located closer to the midline or proximal end of the body compared to the insertion point. In contrast, the insertion is the point where the muscle attaches to a bone or a connective tissue structure that moves during muscle contraction. The belly refers to the fleshy part of the muscle, while the aponeurosis is a flat, sheet-like tendon.Rate this question:

- B.
The Right External Carotid Artery
- C.
The Brachiocephalic Trunk / Inominate Artery
- D.
The Right Mandibular Artery
Correct Answer
B. The Right External Carotid ArteryExplanation
The right external carotid artery feeds the right facial artery. The external carotid artery is a major blood vessel that supplies blood to the face and neck. It branches off from the common carotid artery and gives rise to several branches, including the facial artery. The facial artery then supplies blood to the structures of the face, including the muscles, skin, and other tissues. Therefore, the correct answer is the right external carotid artery.Rate this question:
