Anatomy

Friday, October 12th, 2007

Anatomy is the most important subject in the course of medicine. A good knowledge in the field is vital for any aspiring doctor, for a weak knowledge in anatomy makes a mediocre physician.

Anyhow, often time, people tend to rate their level and knowledge on a particular subject much higher than what it really is. Humility at it’s best, I reckon. Then there’s the rest who don’t really know much, but often google when questions are posed towards them to find answers. Whilst this is usually frowned upon, at least the person is making an effort in finding out stuff that he doesn’t know.

Test yourself how good you are in your anatomy, by trying to answer this 5 basic anatomy questions. If you find yourself struggling to answer these, you might need to mug up on your anatomy knowledge. Getting the majority of these questions right would indicate a rather arbitrarily sufficient amount of knowledge (considering not the entire syllabus is covered), Give it a try!

1) How Do fascia attach to Bones?

2) The ureter may be found immediately anterior to the origin of what artery? (This is Too Fuckin Easy)

3)The greater omentum is derived from which embryonic structures?


4)Name Components derived from neural crest?

5)The smooth part of the right atrium derives from which embryonic structures?

These questions are actually based on questions that I studied for my anatomy Final exams, from which I only managed a meager 4. I know I could have done better, but due to certain circumstances (slothmud; pc upgrade; games; sickness) I have nobody else to blame beyond myself for the slump of mediocrity I dwell in. The questions are not originally of multiple choice, but I merely added that, for 2 reasons. 1 – To make myself sound smart, 2- to confuse the readers. Feel free to leave your answers in the comment section together with an explanation!

Edit : The questions were initially Multiple Choice, but I realized since there was only 1 correct answer and everything else was so far fetched it wasn’t a very smart choice. I have since made it into subjective, where you may fill up the blanks.
