Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. How many chambers does a human heart have?

Answer: 4

The four chambers of the human heart are the right and left atrium and the right and left ventricle. The ventricles pump blood to the rest of the body and the atria receive blood pumped back into the heart.
2. What are the sections that human lungs are divided into called?

Answer: Lobes

The left lung is smaller than the right lung because it has to share space with the heart. The right lung is made up of three lobes: superior, middle and inferior. The smaller left lung is only made up of two lobes: superior and inferior.
3. What nerve transmits information from the eye's retina to the brain?

Answer: Optic

There are 12 pairs of cranial nerves and the optic nerve is also known as cranial nerve II. Cranial nerves are numbered based on their location. The cranial nerve is located at the back of the eye.
4. Which is NOT a basic life function controlled by the brain stem?

Answer: Problem solving

Problem solving is associated with the frontal lobe of the cerebral cortex. The frontal lobe is also responsible for higher order functions, judgement, planning, etc. The other three lobes that make up the cerebral cortex are the parietal, temporal and occipital lobes.
5. People with type one diabetes have problems with which organ?

Answer: Pancreas

The pancreas releases insulin to help regulate blood sugar. After people eat, the glucose (sugar) is released into the blood. The increased blood sugar level is supposed to trigger the pancreas to release insulin. The insulin allows the glucose to enter cells so it can be used as energy.
6. I am putting deodorant on my axilla. What is an axilla?

Answer: Arm pit

The axilla is where the arm connects to the shoulder and is where the underarm sweat gland is located. The axilla (arm pit) is very important because many nerves pass through the axilla. The nerves that pass through the axilla are known as the brachial plexus.
7. What is the name of a muscle group located on the upper arm?

Answer: Biceps

The biceps are a two headed muscle arising from the scapula. Glutes are located in a person's "bottom", hamstrings are on the back of the legs, and pectoral muscles are on the chest.
8. You get that "funny bone feeling" when the ulnar nerve hits the distal end of what arm bone?

Answer: Humerus

It's not so "humorous" when the "humerus" hits the ulnar nerve. The humerus goes from the shoulder to the elbow. The humerus is long and narrow in its shape. Bones such as the humerus, femur and tibia are referred to as the "long bones" of the body. The other types of bones are short bones, flat bones, irregular bones and sesamoid bones.
9. What do we call it when our sensory nerves receive noxious stimuli?

Answer: Pain

The body has sensory receptors called, nociceptors, in the skin, joints and visceral organs. Noxious stimuli travels from the nociceptors to the spinal cord to the brain stem and finally to different parts of the higher levels of the brain for processing.

When transmission of the noxious stimuli is interrupted, people will not feel the warning signal of pain telling them that something is wrong with their body.
10. What is NOT the name of a system of the human body?

Answer: Heart system

The system that includes the heart is called the circulatory system. The other body systems not mentioned in the question are: endocrine, lymphatic, muscular, reproductive, respiratory, skeletal, integumentary and urinary. The 12 systems of the human body work together to keep the body functional.
