REVIEW FOR SECOND LECTURE EXAM, BIOLOGY 03048, ANATOMY

W. Crone (303 FTZ, 629-7439, cronewil@hvcc.edu, http://www.hvcc.edu/academ/faculty/crone/index.html)

OFFICE HOURS: T 12-1 in Bio Study Center, AMZ 219, T 1-2 in my office, Th 12-1 in my office, F 11-12 in Bio Study Center, AMZ 219, F 12-1 in my office, or by appointment

While I haven't written the test and so can't be precise, I am anticipating the following question distribution:

TOPICS to be covered: see course outline"Test 2." Make sure to include a lookover of #2, sternal puncture, #4, myocardial infarction, and #5, atherosclerosis from the Test 1 list. Be prepared to answer these questions at the level presented in the texts. The PA National Boards are very clinically oriented, and so in keeping with that, there will be an emphasis on applied anatomy. I will focus on that material which was at least touched upon in lecture, but I will assume you have gained additional insights supporting lecture material from your review of the texts (Moore and Dalley blue boxes, anyone?) [and even the Grant's Dissector"tidbits"]. In terms of histology, be prepared to make and/or label line diagrams of general organs, and to be able to recognize the differences between normal and abnormal tissues.. The essay questions will be at the level of end of chapter in Moore and Dalley or Van Wysberghe and Cooley scenarios.

Sample multiple-choice questions from a previous year's test, with correct answers listed at the end:

1. Understanding normal breast anatomy is important to understand localized and regional spread of breast cancers. All of the following statements about the mammary gland are true except:

A. it has an abundant blood supply partially derived from cutaneous blood vessels.

B. It is fully encapsulated by a fibrous sheath which separates it from surrounding tissues.

C. Its suspensory ligaments are strands of fibrous tissue that attach to the dermis.

D. Its lymphatic drainage is widespread, but flows mainly to the axillary nodes.

E. It is composed of 15 to 20 lobes of glandular tissue.

 

2. Hypertrophy of the right ventricle is a compensatory response to:
