Questions and Answers

1.

The functioning of any system is closely related to the functioning of other systems.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
Systems in any context are interconnected and interdependent. The functioning of one system can have an impact on the functioning of other systems within the same environment. This is because systems often rely on each other for resources, support, or information. Changes or disruptions in one system can create a ripple effect on the overall functioning of the interconnected systems. Therefore, it is true that the functioning of any system is closely related to the functioning of other systems.

The anatomical position "deep" describes a position further from the attachment of a limb.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
The anatomical position "deep" actually describes a position closer to the attachment of a limb, not further from it. The term "deep" is used to indicate structures that are located deeper within the body, away from the surface. In contrast, the term "superficial" is used to describe structures that are closer to the surface. Therefore, the correct answer is False.

3.

Sagittal plane movements are plantarflexion and dorsiflexion.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
Sagittal plane movements refer to movements that occur in a forward and backward direction. Plantarflexion is the movement of pointing the foot downwards, while dorsiflexion is the movement of pulling the foot upwards. Both of these movements occur in the sagittal plane, making the statement true.

4.

Bones contain ______ of non-living matter in the form of mineral salts of calcium, phosphorous and magnesium.
- A.
  
  60%
- B.
  
  65%
- C.
  
  70%
- D.
  
  75%
Correct Answer
C. 70%

Explanation
Bones contain a significant amount of non-living matter in the form of mineral salts of calcium, phosphorous, and magnesium. This mineralized matrix makes up approximately 70% of the bone's composition. These minerals provide strength and rigidity to the bones, contributing to their overall structure and function.

5.

Short bones are formed in tendons, and the largest of these is the patella or kneecap.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
Short bones are not formed in tendons. Short bones are actually a type of bone that is roughly cube-shaped or round, such as the bones in the wrist and ankle. The patella or kneecap is actually a sesamoid bone, which is a type of bone that develops within a tendon. Therefore, the correct answer is False.

6.

Tissues associated with the skeleton includes:
- A.
  
  Hyaline cartilage, ligaments, and tendons
- B.
  
  Hyaline cartilage, clavicle, and tendons
Correct Answer
A. Hyaline cartilage, ligaments, and tendons

Explanation
The correct answer is "Hyaline cartilage, ligaments, and tendons." These tissues are all associated with the skeletal system. Hyaline cartilage is a smooth and flexible tissue that covers the ends of bones and provides cushioning. Ligaments are tough bands of connective tissue that connect bones to other bones, providing stability to the joints. Tendons are fibrous tissues that connect muscles to bones, allowing for movement and transmitting the force of muscle contractions. Therefore, these tissues are all directly involved in supporting and maintaining the skeletal system.

Rate this question:
7.

Amphiarthroses have a structure which reduces friction where the bones move against each other.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
Amphiarthroses are a type of joint that allows limited movement between bones. Unlike synarthroses, which are immovable joints, amphiarthroses do not have a structure specifically designed to reduce friction between bones. Instead, they have fibrocartilage or hyaline cartilage that helps absorb shock and provide stability, but it does not directly reduce friction. Therefore, the given statement is false.
