RAD 110 Final Exam

Part 5

QuestionAnswer
Hyposthenic Organs lower than the average person
Hypersthenic Organs more elevated and horizontally stretched than the average individual
Asthenic Lower organs very low and upper organs more vertically stretched than the average individual
Sthenic The average person
Hyposthenic A slender, elongated, lean body type, often described as falling between the average (sthenic) and very thin (asthenic) types
Hypersthenic A massive, broad, thick-set, and heavy body build. It is characterized by a short, wide thorax, a high diaphragm, and organs situated high and transversely
Asthenic A very thin, frail, and slender build with a long, narrow thorax and abdomen. It is characterized by a very low diaphragm and a low, vertical, J-shaped stomach.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
