PREDICTED MOST LIKELY QUESTIONS FOR YOUR EXAM
Section B - Long Answer (prepare all 3, attempt any 2)
- Brain and Spinal Cord - draw labelled diagram, discuss all parts, functions, reflex action (asked every single year)
- Kidney - structure, functions, physiology of urine formation (asked every single year)
- Either: Digestive system (parts + digestion physiology) or Female/Male Reproductive System or Respiration mechanism
Section C - Short Answer (prepare 9, attempt any 7)
- Pituitary gland as master gland - endocrine glands
- Role of kidney in acid-base balance
- Mechanism/regulation of respiration + lung volumes
- Thyroid gland - hormones and functions
- Menstrual cycle - physiology and regulation
- Protein synthesis
- Reflex activity
- BMR - definition, determination, factors affecting it
- Gene therapy - importance
- Cerebrum & Cerebellum functions
- Nephron - parts and types
- Pepsin - role in protein digestion
- ANS - functions
- Stomach - anatomy and functions
TIP
- Brain + Kidney are the two most guaranteed long answer topics. Master both with labelled diagrams.
- For short answers, the top 7 to focus on are: Pituitary, Kidney in acid-base balance, Respiration, Thyroid, Menstrual cycle, Protein synthesis, and Reflex activity.
