98. Pulmonary ventilation differs from respiration in that
(a) Pulmonary ventilation is the sum of inspiration plus expiration,
whereas respiration is simply gas exchange between various body
compartments
(b) Pulmonary ventilation involves both gas exchange and removal of
stale air from the body
(c) Respiration only involves gas exchange between the air in the lung
alveoli and the blood in the pulmonary capillaries
(d) Pulmonary ventilation only involves the upper respiratory pathway
lying above both lungs
(e) Inspiration, but not ventilation, requires the bulk flow of air
99. Digestion differs from absorption in the following way
(a) Digestion is the movement of material from the interior of the
digestive tube into the bloodstream, whereas absorption is the
breakdown of foodstuffs
(b) Digestion is the chemical and physical breakdown of food, whereas
absorption is the movement of nutrient particles from the tube into
the bloodstream
(c) Absorption is the active adding of material to the digestive tube,
from the bloodstream
(d) Digestion is the same as secretion from the accessory digestive
organs
(e) Absorption is identical to both ingestion and egestion, whereas
digestion is not identical to these processes
100. The genitourinary system
(a) The reproductive organs and pathways in both males and females
(b) Involves just the organs of urine formation and excretion
(c) A collection of specialized cells that directly participate in body
defense
(d) Is located just inferior and dorsal to most of the neuromuscular
system
(e) Concept that the reproductive and urinary pathways share many
traits
