Sample Physiology MCQs 1. Compound action potentials can be graded responses. True 2. The sciatic nerve contains axons of both afferent and efferent neurones. True 3. The absolute refractory period of an action potential is the period after an initial stimulus when it is impossible to evoke another action potential with a second stimulus. True 4. The refractory periods of individual axons are important as they dictate the maximal action potential firing rate of a neuron. True 5. Compound action

CONCENTRATION AND DILUTION Physiology 1‚ Las Positas College Name: In science‚ concentration is a measure of the number of particles (solutes) in a given volume. If one room has 100 people in it‚ and a room of equal size has 50 people‚ one can say that the concentration of people in one room is twice that of the other. Quite simple‚ isn’t it? On a molecular level‚ consider whether you put one lump or two of sugar‚ or no sugar at all‚ in your coffee. If you use two lumps‚ you prefer twice

ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY The vagina is a thin-walled tube 8 to 10 cm long. It lies between the bladder and rectumand extends from the cervix to the body exterior. Often called the birth canal‚ the vagina providesa passageway for the delivery of an infant and for the menstrual flow to leave the body.The cervix (from Latin "neck") is the lower‚ narrow portion of the uterus where it joinswith the top end of the vagina. Where they join together forms an almost 90 degree curve. It iscylindrical or
