Question 1

Ulnar artery ends by forming?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: The ulnar artery primarily completes the superficial palmar arch (joining the superficial palmar branch of the radial). The deep palmar arch is mainly formed by the radial artery.

Question 2

Posterior axillary fold is formed by?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: The posterior axillary fold is formed by the tendons of the latissimus dorsi and teres major muscles; teres minor does not form the fold.

Question 3

It is a thickening of deep fascia that holds the long flexor tendons in position?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: The structure that secures the long flexor tendons at the wrist is the flexor retinaculum; the extensor retinaculum stabilizes extensor tendons.

Question 4

Nerve supply to the anterior compartment of arm is?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: The anterior arm muscles (biceps brachii, brachialis, coracobrachialis) are innervated by the musculocutaneous nerve; radial innervates posterior compartment and axillary innervates deltoid/teres minor.

Question 5

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: Sagittal planes are vertical planes parallel to the median plane that divide the body into right and left portions.

Question 6

In the lower part of hip bone, a large opening called?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: The large opening in the inferior part of the hip bone, formed by the pubis and ischium, is the obturator foramen.

Question 7

Two-layered folds of peritoneum that connect the stomach to another viscus IS?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: Omenta are double-layered peritoneal folds that connect the stomach (and proximal duodenum) to other organs, e.g., greater omentum to transverse colon and lesser omentum to liver. Mesenteries and mesocolon attach intestines to the posterior abdominal wall, not specifically the stomach.

Question 8

Any vertical side to side plane at right angle to median plane is called?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: Coronal (frontal) planes are vertical planes oriented side-to-side that are perpendicular to the median (sagittal) plane.

Question 9

The study of the structure of different systems of human body is studied in?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: Systemic anatomy studies the structures of the body by organ systems, whereas regional anatomy focuses on body regions and clinical/basic anatomy are broader approaches.

Question 10

The two-layered folds of peritoneum that connect the stomach to another viscus is?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: Omenta (greater and lesser) are two-layered peritoneal folds that connect the stomach to other viscera, such as the liver and transverse colon. Mesenteries and mesocolon attach intestines to the posterior abdominal wall.

Question 11

Trachea is present in?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: The trachea lies in the superior mediastinum and bifurcates at the sternal angle (T4–T5); below this level the bronchi are in the middle mediastinum.

Question 12

The thin serous membrane that lines the wall of the abdominal and pelvic cavities and clothes the viscera is called?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: The peritoneum is the serous membrane lining the abdominal and pelvic walls and covering the abdominal organs. Pleura lines the thoracic cavity, omentum is a peritoneal fold, and fascia is connective tissue, not a serous membrane.

Question 13

The hepatic artery supplies the liver which is the branch of?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: The proper hepatic artery ultimately arises from the common hepatic artery, a branch of the celiac trunk (celiac artery). The other options are unrelated branches.

Question 14

All are the muscles of anterior abdominal wall except?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: Psoas major lies on the posterior abdominal wall; the anterior abdominal wall muscles are external oblique, internal oblique, rectus abdominus, and pyramidalis.

Question 15

Rectus sheath is ________?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: The rectus sheath’s posterior wall is deficient below the arcuate line (not above the umbilicus), and the sheath does not start at the arcuate line. The superior epigastric artery enters the rectus sheath from above, making option B correct.

Question 16

Two-layered folds of peritoneum that connect the stomach to another viscus is?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: The greater and lesser omenta are two-layered peritoneal folds that extend from the stomach and proximal duodenum to other viscera.

Question 17

In the lower part of hip bone, a large opening called?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: The large opening in the inferior part of the hip bone formed by the pubis and ischium is the obturator foramen. The acetabulum is the socket for the femoral head; obturator internus is a muscle; pubic ramus is a bony part; pelvic brim outlines the pelvic inlet.

Question 18

At what level does the manubrium lie?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: The manubrium extends from the jugular notch (about T2–T3) to the sternal angle at the T4–T5 level; thus it overlies approximately T3–T4 vertebrae.

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: The spleen lies in the left upper quadrant beneath ribs 9–11, corresponding to the left hypochondriac region of the abdominopelvic scheme.

Question 24

In adults the spinal cord ends at?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: In adults the conus medullaris typically ends at the lower border of L1 (about L1–L2); hence the best single answer is the lower border of the 1st lumbar vertebra.

Question 25

On emerging from foramen the spinal nerve divides into?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: After exiting the intervertebral foramen, a spinal nerve divides into dorsal (posterior) and ventral (anterior) rami. Roots and the dorsal root ganglion are proximal to the foramen.

Question 26

Brachial plexus is formed by the?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: The brachial plexus is classically formed by the anterior rami of C5–C8 and T1. Option B includes C4 instead of C8, which is not the standard root set.

Question 27

The upper seven pairs are attached anterior to the sternum by their costal cartilages called?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: Ribs 1–7 attach directly to the sternum via their own costal cartilages and are termed true ribs. Ribs 8–10 are vertebrochondral (false) and 11–12 are floating.

Question 28

The potential space between the parietal and visceral layers, which is in effect the inside space of the balloon is called the?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: The space between the parietal and visceral peritoneum is the peritoneal cavity (peritoneal space). The peritoneum is the membrane itself, while omenta and mesenteries are peritoneal folds.

Question 29

Projection or outgrowths that form joints or serve as attachment points for ligaments and tendon is?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: In anatomical terminology, a process is a general term for any projection or outgrowth of bone that may form joints or serve as attachment points for tendons and ligaments. The other options are specific types of processes.

Question 30

A thin serous membrane that lines the walls of the abdominal and pelvic cavities and clothes the viscera called?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: The peritoneum is the serous membrane that lines the abdominal and pelvic walls (parietal layer) and covers the viscera (visceral layer). Omenta and mesentery are folds of the peritoneum, not the membrane itself.

Question 31

The rectus sheath is separated from its fellow on the opposite side by a fibrous band called?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: The two rectus sheaths meet at the midline and are separated by the fibrous raphe known as the linea alba.

Question 32

Projections or outgrowths that form joints or serve as attachment points for ligaments and tendon is?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: In bone anatomy, projections or outgrowths that form joints or serve as attachment points for tendons and ligaments are collectively termed processes. Trochanter, tuberosity, and tubercle are specific types of processes; a condyle is a rounded articular process.

Question 33

The double layered folds of peritoneum which connects the parts of intestines to the posterior abdominal wall is called?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: A mesentery is a double layer of peritoneum that suspends the intestines from the posterior abdominal wall; omentum relates to the stomach, parietal peritoneum lines the wall, and recess is a peritoneal pouch.

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: Autonomic innervation of the heart is via the cardiac plexus, which carries sympathetic fibers from the thoracic chain and parasympathetic fibers from the vagus nerves.

Question 42

The potential space between the parietal and visceral layers, which is in effect the inside space of the balloon, is called the?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: The potential cavity between parietal and visceral peritoneum is the peritoneal space (peritoneal cavity). The peritoneum is the membrane itself; mesenteries and omenta are peritoneal folds; pleural cavity pertains to the thorax.

Question 43

The pelvic diaphragm?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: The pelvic diaphragm (levator ani and coccygeus with their fasciae) forms the pelvic floor and supports pelvic organs. It does not entirely enclose the pelvic outlet due to the urogenital hiatus (so a is false), is not located within the anal triangle but forms the roof of the perineum (b false), and does not include the external anal sphincter (c false).

Question 44

Nine regions of an abdomen occur when drawing line from midclavicular vertically and horizontally?

Accepted Answer

Answer reason: The abdomen is divided into nine regions by two vertical midclavicular lines and two horizontal planes: the subcostal and the transtubercular planes. A transpubic plane is not used.
