TEAS version 7 quizlet science Questions

Question 1 of 5

Which of the following epithelial tissues lines the stratified squamous epithelium of the esophagus, providing a protective barrier against abrasion from food passage?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is stratified squamous epithelium. This type of epithelium is found in areas subjected to mechanical and chemical stresses, such as the lining of the esophagus. The multiple layers of cells provide protection against abrasion from the passage of food. Simple squamous epithelium (choice A) is a single layer of flat cells and is not well-suited for protection against abrasion as it lacks the multiple layers. Simple cuboidal epithelium (choice C) is found in areas where secretion and absorption occur, such as kidney tubules, and is not typically found in the esophagus where protection against abrasion is necessary. Stratified cuboidal epithelium (choice D) is rare in the body and is not a characteristic tissue type of the esophagus, which requires stratified squamous epithelium for its protective function.

Question 2 of 5

Which of the following is a characteristic of a solution with high viscosity?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: 'It has a high resistance to flow.' A solution with high viscosity exhibits a high resistance to flow. Viscosity measures the fluid's resistance to deformation or flow, with higher viscosity indicating thicker and slower-flowing fluids. Choice A is incorrect because high viscosity means the solution flows slowly, not easily. Choice B is incorrect as high viscosity implies a high resistance to flow, not a low one. Choice D is irrelevant to viscosity and does not describe a characteristic associated with high viscosity.

Question 3 of 5

Delta waves, associated with deep sleep, exhibit what frequency range?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Delta waves are slow brain waves associated with deep sleep stages, specifically stages 3 and 4 of non-REM sleep. These waves have a frequency range of 0.5-4 Hz. Choice B (4-8 Hz) refers to theta waves, which are associated with light sleep and relaxation. Choice C (8-13 Hz) corresponds to alpha waves, present during wakeful relaxation. Choice D (13-30 Hz) represents beta waves, seen in active thinking and concentration. Therefore, the correct answer is A because it aligns with the frequency range characteristic of delta waves during deep sleep.

Question 4 of 5

What is the main component of bile, a substance that aids in fat digestion?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Bile is a digestive fluid produced by the liver and stored in the gallbladder. Bile salts are the main component of bile that aid in the digestion and absorption of fats in the small intestine. Bile salts help emulsify fats, breaking them down into smaller droplets that can be more easily digested by enzymes. Proteins, carbohydrates, and vitamins are not the main components of bile and do not play a significant role in fat digestion. Therefore, the correct answer is 'Bile salts.' Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they are not the main components of bile and do not contribute to fat digestion.

Question 5 of 5

During which phase of the cardiac cycle do the atria contract, pushing blood into the ventricles?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Atrial systole is the phase of the cardiac cycle during which the atria contract, pushing blood into the ventricles. This occurs after the atria have been filled during atrial diastole. Ventricular systole refers to the phase when the ventricles contract to push blood out of the heart, not when the atria contract. Ventricular diastole is the phase when the ventricles relax and fill with blood, not when the atria contract. Therefore, the correct answer is atrial systole as it specifically describes the atrial contraction phase.
