APHY 201 Exam 2e

Lab III, IV, V - Reflexes, Optics of the Eye, Sensory Physiology

QuestionAnswer
what is the list of structures a reflex test can assess? (Algonquin Academy video) - recognize for multiple choice muscle spindles, afferent neurons & motor neurons, NMJs, excitatory & inhibitory input
what is the nerve that supplies the biceps brachii? musculocutaneous nerve
what is the muscle action expected in a biceps reflex test? flexion of forearm
what is the nerve plexus and spinal nerve roots tested that are involved in a biceps reflex? brachial plexus, testing C5-6 spinal roots
which nerve supplies the triceps brachii? radial nerve
what is the nerve plexus and spinal nerve roots tested that are involved in a triceps reflex? brachial plexus, testing C7-8 spinal roots
which reflex involves the radial nerve, flexion of forearm, inhibition of triceps brachii, involvement of the brachial plexus, and spinal roots C5-6? brachioradialis reflex (pay attention to the nerve involved)
which muscle action is expected in the patellar reflex? extension of leg
which nerve supplies muscle group involved the patellar reflex? femoral nerve supplies the quadriceps femoris
which nerve plexus and spinal root area tested that are involved in the patellar reflex? lumbar plexus, L2-4 spinal roots
which is the muscle group that contracts during the Achilles/ankle reflex? triceps surae (gastrocnemius and soleus)
which nerve supplies the gastrocnemius and soleus (triceps surae)? (hint: this is associated with the Achilles/ankle reflex) tibial nerve
what is the muscle action expected in the Achilles/ankle reflex? plantar flexion of foot
what is the inhibited muscle during the Achilles/ankle reflex? tibialis anterior
which nerve plexus and spinal roots are involved in the Achilles/ankle reflex? sacral plexus, S1-2
why doesn't the mandibular jaw-jerk reflex have a nerve plexus or spinal nerve root associated with it? it bypasses the spinal cord (trigeminal nerve V)
what are the muscles that contract during the mandibular/jaw-jerk reflex? masseter and temporalis
what is the nerve that supplies the masster & temporalis? trigeminal nerve (V3) aka mandibular nerve
what is the expected muscle action for the mandibular/jaw-jerk reflex? elevation of the mandible (jaw closing)
what is the name of the muscle inhibited during the mandibular/jaw-jerk reflex? digastric muscle
what involved nerve plexus and spinal roots tested are associated with the mandibular/jaw-jerk reflex? none, trick question
moving an object closer in emmetropia WITHOUT accommodation of the crystal lens would put the focal point to a position either in front of or behind the retina. which is it? the focal point would be pushed behind the retina
choose the right answers: when a near object (<20 feet) is viewed, the light rays converge/diverge on their way to the eye, the ciliary body is relaxed/contracted, and the lens is thin/thick diverge, contracted, thick
a "fatter" lens draws the focal point forward or back in the eye? forward
in hyperopia, is the eyeball abnormally short or long? is the retina in front of or behind where the retina should be? abnormally short, retina is in front of where it SHOULD be, aka rays focus behind retina
which kind of lens, convex or concave, would help someone with hyperopia? convex
true or false, a corrective lens for hyperopia stards the bending of light "early" true, it is like having a second lens in front of the human lens
in myopia, is the eyeball abnormally short or long? is the retina in front of or behind where the retina should be? abnormally long, retina is behind where it SHOULD be aka rays focus in front of retina
which kind of lens, convex or concave, would help someone with myopia? concave
true or false, a corrective lens for myopia diverges the rays before they reach the eye true, light to the eyes in myopia is bent at an angle that is too steep (or the eyeball is too long)
what is the Snellen test? standard eye exam used to measure visual acuity, that uses a chart of block letters that get progressively smaller toward the bottom
what is the Weber test and how is it different from the Rinne test? with the Rinne test, one ear at a time, the fork compares air conduction to bone conduction. the Weber test places a vibrating tuning fork on the center of the forehead or top of the head and checks for lateralization
what is the postural reflex test? stand behind someone and pull on their shoulders. it should take just 1-2 steps for them to regain their balance
what is Barany’s test? by spinning a person around like on a chair, you can induce nystagmus
what is the Romberg test? tests lateral sway with eyes open and closed

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.
