inferior vena cava, which carries deoxygenated blood from the lower half of the body back up
to the heart.

2. CSF is secreted by ……………
choroid plexus
The epithelial cells of the choroid plexus secrete cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), by a process that
involves the movement of Na(+), Cl(-) and HCO(3)(-) from the blood to the ventricles of the
brain. This creates the osmotic gradient, which drives the secretion of H(2)O.

3. A disease in which the hyposecretion of thyroid glands in adult is called…… For example,
insufficient production (hyposecretion) of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) in the pituitary
gland will cause hypothyroidism, while overproduction (hypersecretion) of TSH will cause
hyperthyroidism. ……

4. Q3.the shortest rib in human body is called
A.twelfth rib
The twelfth rib is an atypical rib. It is the shortest rib, and one of two floating ribs.
1. There are seven pairs of true ribs. ... They differ from false and floating ribs because they
directly articulate with the sternum by means of their costal cartilages. The
shortest true rib is rib 1 and their length increases all the way to rib 7. Also, the radius of their
curvature increases progressing inferiorly.

5. The human skeleton consists of … 206 …….. bones
The adult human skeleton usually consists of 206 named bones. These bones can be grouped in
two divisions: axial skeleton and appendicular skeleton. The 80 bones of the axial skeleton form
the vertical axis of the body. They include the bones of the head, vertebral column, ribs and
breastbone or sternum.

6. The study of bone is called ……..
Orthopaedics is the study of the musculoskeletal system. ... The
musculoskeletal system provides form, stability, and movement to
the human body. It is made up of the body's bones (the skeleton),
muscles, cartilage, tendons, ligaments, joints, and other connective
tissue.

7. arterioles is a small artery
The aorta branches into a network of smaller arteries that extend throughout the body.
The arteries' smaller branches are called arterioles and capillaries. The pulmonary arteries carry
oxygen-poor blood from the heart to the lungs under low pressure, making
these arteries unique.

8. The first vertebra is known as Atlas (C1)
The first cervical vertebra is a bony ring with a thin anterior arch and posterior laminae, which
are joined by lateral masses having articular facets that articulate with the occipital condyles
superiorly and the lateral masses of C2 inferiorly.
Atlas (anatomy)

9. The contraction of the ventricles produces…
first heart sound, S1 ……….
The ventricles begin to contract (ventricular systole), raising pressure within the ventricles.
When ventricular pressure rises above the pressure in the atria, blood flows toward the
atria, producing the first heart sound, S1 or lub.

10. Ovaries in the females which secrete
…………….and…………… oestrogen and progesterone.
The ovaries produce and release eggs (oocytes) into the female reproductive tract at the mid-
point of each menstrual cycle. They also produce the female
hormones oestrogen and progesterone.

11. II. DEFINE THE FOLLOWING : 2 x 10 = 20
1) Thyroid gland
The thyroid, or thyroid gland, is an
endocrine gland in the neck consisting of two
connected lobes. The lower two thirds of the
lobes are connected by a thin band of tissue
called the thyroid isthmus. The thyroid is
located at the front of the neck, below the
Adam's apple.

12. Digestion
Digestion is the breakdown of large insoluble food molecules into small water-soluble food
molecules so that they can be absorbed into the watery blood plasma. In certain organisms,
these smaller substances are absorbed through the small intestine into the blood stream.

13. Pericardium
The pericardium, also called pericardial sac, is
a double-walled sac containing the heart and
the roots of the great vessels. It has two layers,
an outer layer made of strong connective
tissue (fibrous pericardium), and an inner layer
made of serous membrane
(serous pericardium).
Location: A sac around the heart
Nerve: Phrenic nerve

14. Liver cirrhosis
Cirrhosis is a late stage of scarring (fibrosis) of
the liver caused by many forms
of liver diseases and conditions, such as
hepatitis and chronic alcoholism. Each time
your liver is injured — whether by disease,
excessive alcohol consumption or another
cause — it tries to repair itself.06-Feb-2021

15. Write about mid brain?
Midbrain, also called mesencephalon, region
of the developing vertebrate brain that is
composed of the tectum and tegmentum. ...
The midbrain serves important functions in
motor movement, particularly movements of
the eye, and in auditory and visual processing.

16. Explain pulmonary circulation.
The pulmonary circulation is the portion of the
circulatory system which carries deoxygenated
blood away from the right ventricle, to the
lungs, and returns oxygenated blood to the left
atrium and ventricle of the heart. The term
pulmonary circulation is readily paired and
contrasted with the systemic circulation.

17. Define Pancha Kosha
Panchakoshas, are the layers of body that
seemingly cover the Atman. The Tvam
padartha of the Mahavakya Tat Tvam Asi is
