Match the following organs with their primary functions:

Stomach = Digestive organ for storage of ingested feed Abomasum = Secretes gastric hydrochloric acid Intestine = Tube connecting the stomach to the cecum and large intestine Pancreas = Gland found in the first loop of the duodenum

Match the following segments of the small intestine with their descriptions:

Cecum = Closed-ended tube where the ileum attaches to the colon Duodenum = Fixed part of the small intestine, closely attached to the stomach Ileum = Last part of the small intestine Rectum = Terminal part of the intestine, organ of storage

Match the following terms with their descriptions:

Colon = Larger, sacculated part of the intestine with longitudinal bands Anus = Terminal part of the alimentary system Appendix = Attached to the inferior end of the cecum, contains lymphatic cells Mesentery = Fold of peritoneum suspending the small intestine from the abdominal cavity

Match the digestive organ with its function:

Liver = Produces bile for fat emulsification Gall bladder = Storage place for bile Small Intestine = Site for water resorption and enzyme digestion Ceca and Large Intestine = Location for water resorption and bacterial fermentation

Match the animal with the absence of the gall bladder:

Horse = Absence of gall bladder Elephant = Absence of gall bladder Rat = Absence of gall bladder Camel = Absence of gall bladder

Match the bird organ with its function:

Beak = Used for picking up small articles of feed Esophagus = Contains an enlarged area known as the crop Cloaca/Vent/Anus = Eliminates waste products Ceca and Large Intestine = Site for water resorption and bacterial fermentation

Match the digestive system part with its purpose:

Jejunum = Part of the small intestine with enzymes for digestion Salivary glands = Produces saliva containing amylase for breakdown reactions Crop (in birds) = Serves as an ingesta holding and moistening reservoir Anus = Eliminates waste products

Match the descriptions with the correct function of blood:

Transports nutrients absorbed from the digestive tract to the tissues = Carries oxygen from the lungs to the tissues Carries oxygen from the lungs to the tissues = Transports hormones from one part of the body to another Helps maintain the water equilibrium of the body = Assists in keeping the normal temperature of the body Regulates the hydrogen ion concentration in the body = Assists in overcoming diseases

Match the animals with their respective pulse rate ranges:

Horse = 30-45 pulse rate/minute Cattle = 54 pulse rate/minute Goat = 78 pulse rate/minute Chicken = 200-400 pulse rate/minute

Match the animals with their correct sites for taking pulse rate:

Horse = Submandibular artery (face) Pig = Auscultation method using stethoscope at cardiac or chest region Dog and cat = Femoral artery Elephant = Not specified

Match the terms with their definitions related to pulse rate:

Bradycardia = Marked slowing of the heart rate Tachycardia = Increased pulse rate Arrhythmia = No heart beat Not specified = Systemic circulation description

Match the following structures with their functions:

Epididymis = Site of sperm maturation Vas deferens = Carry sperm from epididymis to urethra Seminal vesicles = Produce secretions with fructose and neutralize urine residues Prostate gland = Surrounds the pelvic urethra

Match the following terms with their descriptions:

Cryptorchid = When only one testis fails to descend but is capable of fertilization Seminiferous tubules = Join to form rete testis and vas efferens Ampulla = Enlarged end of vas deferens where it joins with the urethra Penis = Male copulatory organ divided into glans, body, and roots

Match the male reproductive structures with their locations:

Testes = Initially develop inside the body cavity Epididymis = Where sperm maturation occurs Vas deferens = Ends at the tail of the epididymis before forming the ampulla Urethra = Where spermatozoa and accessory fluids mix

Match the male accessory glands with their characteristics:

Seminal vesicles = Paired and pear-shaped in some species, lobulated in others Prostate gland = Unpaired and surrounds the pelvic urethra

Match the following parts of the digestive system with their descriptions:

Mouth = Responsible for the breakdown of food materials and serves as a prehensile organ Stomach = Produces hydrochloric acid and pepsinogen Esophagus = Musculomembranous tube extending from the pharynx to the stomach Rumen = Largest part of the forestomach, serves as a fermentation vat

Match the following terms with their functions:

Ruminants = Can digest large quantities of roughage because of bacteria in their digestive systems Swine = Can only digest about 22% of roughage they eat Bacteria in ruminant digestive systems = Produce proteins, B-complex vitamins, and vitamin K Balancing ration for ruminants = Somewhat easier due to certain nutrients produced by ruminant animals themselves

Match the following stomach compartments with their characteristics:

Reticulum = Receives heavy matter in food and acts as a liquid reservoir Rumen = Serves as a fermentation vat and organ of maceration Cardia = Entrance of the stomach Pylorus = Termination of the stomach

Test your knowledge on the functions and structure of the human circulatory system. This quiz covers the transportation of nutrients, oxygen, carbon dioxide, hormones, as well as its role in maintaining water balance, temperature, pH regulation, and disease resistance.
