Study Notes
Anatomy Notes
- First branch to come off the aorta is the brachiocephalic trunk (or innominate artery)
- Hilum of the lungs is the medial depression of the lungs, where bronchi, pulmonary blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, and nerves enter and leave the lung.
- Middle cerebellar peduncles are composed of transverse nerve fibers that connect the cerebellar hemispheres to the pons.
- The central nervous system (CNS) is composed of the brain and spinal cord.
- Medulla oblongata contains the vital centers, including cardiac, respiratory, and vasomotor centers.
- Structure that serves as an electrical barrier between the myocardium of the atria and that of the ventricles is the atrioventricular (AV) node.
- Brain is located in the cranial cavity.
- Paranasal sinuses are all the following except the sphenoid sinus.
- Which statement about tonsils is not correct? The tonsils are located in the larynx. (They are located in the pharynx.)
- How many pairs of ribs articulate directly with the sternum? Seven.
- The hollow space in the middle of the long bones is filled with bone marrow.
- How many layers form the muscular layer of the stomach? Three.
- Tympanic membrane has contact with the malleus, one of the middle ear ossicles.
- Which joints allow limited movement? Synovial joints.
- Middle cerebellar peduncles connect the cerebellar hemispheres to the pons.
- Cauda equina is: a bundle of nerve roots at the end of the spinal cord.
- Which statement about somatic nervous system is correct? The somatic nervous system controls voluntary movement.
- Which structure is not located in the midbrain? Hypothalamus. (It is located in the diencephalon.)
