    Chapter 1 Review
    BIOL B32

    The following questions and activities are a review of the relevant/testable content from Chapter 1 of your
    textbook (Marieb & Hoehn 2020). Some of the following come from your textbook while others were
    developed by me. This review is not to meant to mimic your assessments (quizzes or exams) in any way and
    are only a review of the chapter content.

    Comprehension/Analysis Questions:

    1. What separates living beings from nonliving objects?

    2. Why is the control system shown in Figure 1.7 (1.6 in 6th ed) called a positive feedback mechanism?
    What event ends it?

    3. What is the anatomical position? Why is it important that you learn this position?

    4. What type of cut would separate the brain into anterior and posterior parts?

    5. Of the uterus, small intestine, spinal cord, and heart, which is/are in the dorsal body cavity?

    6. Which of the following relationships is incorrect?


    a. visceral peritoneum/outer surface of small intestine
    b. parietal pericardium/outer surface on the heart
    c. parietal pleura/wall of thoracic cavity

    7. When you rub your cold hands together, the friction between them results in heat that warms your
    hands. Why doesn’t warming friction result during movements of the heart, lungs, and digestive
    organs?
    8. When we begin to get dehydrated, we usually get thirsty, which causes us to drink fluids. Is thirst part
    of a negative or a positive feedback control system? Explain your choice.

    9. Calcium levels in Jerome’s blood are dropping to dangerously low levels. The hormone PTH is released
    and soon blood calcium levels begin to rise. Shortly after, PTH release slows. Is this an example of a
    positive or negative feedback mechanism? What is the initial stimulus? What is the result?

    10. Aiden has been suffering agonizing pain with each breath and has been informed by the physician that
    he has pleurisy, a condition that affects the double layered membrane surrounding the lungs.
    d. Specifically, what membranes are involved in this condition?

    e. What is their usual role in the body?

    f. Explain why Aiden’s condition is so painful.
