ATI TEAS Science Test Questions

Question 1 of 5

Which human body system is correctly matched with its function?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The circulatory system is responsible for the transportation of oxygen from the lungs to all the body's cells and tissues, as well as removing carbon dioxide from the cells and transporting it back to the lungs to be exhaled. This process is crucial for cellular respiration and the exchange of gases necessary for bodily functions. Choice B accurately matches the role of the circulatory system by describing its function of transporting oxygen to cells and removing carbon dioxide, which is essential for maintaining proper cellular activities. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately match the body system with its function. The respiratory system primarily involves the exchange of gases in the lungs, not transportation to cells; the lymphatic system deals with immunity through the production of antibodies, not gas exchange; and the endocrine system's main function is hormone regulation, not the transport of gases.

Question 2 of 5

Which of the following structures is the natural pacemaker of the heart?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The sinoatrial (SA) node is often referred to as the natural pacemaker of the heart because it is a group of cells located in the right atrium responsible for initiating the electrical signals that coordinate the heart's contractions. The SA node sets the rate and rhythm of the heartbeats, making it a crucial component in the heart's function. The other options, Submental node, Atrioventricular node, and Scalene node, are not related to the regulation of the heart's electrical activity. The Submental node is a lymph node located under the chin, the Atrioventricular node is responsible for passing electrical signals from the atria to the ventricles, and the Scalene node does not exist in the context of the heart's electrical system.

Question 3 of 5

What is correct about the hormones that stimulate male and female organs to produce male and female sex hormones?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C. The same hormones stimulate both male and female organs to produce sex hormones. Hormones such as luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) are produced by the pituitary gland and act on the ovaries in females and the testes in males to stimulate the production of sex hormones (estrogen and progesterone in females, testosterone in males). Therefore, the same hormones stimulate both male and female organs to produce sex hormones. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the relationship between hormones and the stimulation of male and female organs to produce sex hormones.

Question 4 of 5

Which of the following represents the three main parts of a neuron?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: A neuron consists of three main parts: dendrites, axon, and cell body. Dendrites receive signals from other neurons or sensory receptors. The cell body (soma) contains the nucleus and organelles essential for neuron function. The axon transmits electrical impulses away from the cell body to other neurons, muscles, or glands. Choice A is incorrect because an effector is not a part of a neuron. Choice C is incorrect because a receptor is not a component of a neuron but rather interacts with neurons. Choice D is incorrect because the synapse is a junction between neurons for signal transmission, not a structural part of a neuron.

Question 5 of 5

In the human skeleton, which of the following lists some of the vertebrae in descending order?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct order of some of the vertebrae in the human skeleton in descending order is Atlas, Axis, Thoracic, Lumbar, Sacral, Coccyx. This sequence follows the typical arrangement from the top of the spine down towards the pelvis. Choice B is incorrect as it does not follow the descending order of vertebrae. Choice C is incorrect as it starts with Thoracic which is not the first vertebra in the descending order. Choice D is incorrect as it starts with Coccyx which is the last vertebra in the descending order.
