Tissue
The basic units of life are
Cells
Which of the following is the control center of cell activities?
Nucleus
The production department of the cell is known as the
Cytoplasm
Human cells reproduce by a process referred to as
Mitosis
The chemical process by which cells receive nutrients for cell growth and reproduction is known as
Metabolism
The process of building up larger molecules from smaller ones is
Anabolism
What phase of metabolism causes a release of energy within the cell?
Catabolism
Groups of cells of the same kind make up
Tissues
The tissue that carries messages to and from the brain and coordinates body functions is the
Nerve tissue
All of the following are organs of the body EXCEPT A) skin B) brain C) hands D) stomach
Hands
Which type of tissue contracts, when stimulated, to produce motion?

Separate body structures that perform specific functions are
Organs
A group of body organs that perform one or more vital functions for the body is called a(n)
System
Which of the following is NOT a body system? A) nervous system B) digestive system C) cytoplasm system D) circulatory system
Cytoplasm system
The physical foundation of the body is called the
Skeletal system
Osteology is the study of
Bones
Plate-shaped bones located in the skull are
Flat bones
The facial skeleton that enclose and protects the brain and primary sensory organs is called the
Skull
The bone that extends from the top of the eyes to the top of the head to form the forehead is called the
Frontal
The two bones that form the crown and upper sides of the head are called
Parietal bones
How many of the 14 bones that compose the facial skeleton are involved in facial massage?
9

Myology
Which muscles respond to conscious commands?
Voluntary
The muscles that respond automatically to control various body functions are
Non-striated
The three parts of a muscle are the
Origin, belly, and insertion
The bands of fibrous tissue that attach the muscle to the bones are
Tendons
Muscles affected by massage are generally manipulated from the
Insertion to the origin

Procerus
What muscle is located outside the corners of the mouth and draws the mouth up and back, as in laughing?
Zygomaticus
The muscle responsible for compressing the cheek to release air outwardly is the
