Biology and Anatomy Quiz

Circulatory System

• Superior vena cava: largest vein that carries deoxygenated blood from the upper body to the right atrium
• Systemic circulation: passage of blood from the heart to the rest of the body and back
• Vein: blood vessel that carries deoxygenated blood toward the heart

Respiratory System

• Trachea: main airway leading to the lungs
• Terminal bronchioles: smallest branches of the bronchi, leading to the alveoli
• Tidal volume: amount of air inhaled or exhaled during normal breathing
• Vital capacity: maximum amount of air that can be exhaled after a maximum inhalation
• Visceral pleura: inner layer of the pleura that covers the lungs

Human Anatomy

• Tricuspid valve: valve between the right atrium and the right ventricle
• Vocal cords: folds of tissue in the larynx that produce sound when they vibrate

Evolution and Biology

• The Theory of Evolution: scientific theory that species evolve over time through natural selection
• The Origin of Species: book by Charles Darwin that introduced the theory of evolution by natural selection
• Vestigial structure: structure in an organism that has lost all or most of its original function through evolution

Diseases

• Tuberculosis: bacterial infection that primarily affects the lungs but can spread to other organs
