Sample Anatomy Questions
A 35-year-old man has early baldness and is diagnosed with a testicular tumor. Which cell type is the most likely site of origin?
- A.Sertoli cells (tumors here are often hormonally inactive, and may rarely cause gynecomastia)
- B.Leydig cells
- C.Myoid cells (smooth muscle cells not associated with this type of tumor)
- D.Spermatogonia (the origin of seminomas, which present as a painless testicular mass without endocrine features)
After an ankle injury, a patient cannot plantarflex the foot and has lost sensation over the sole. Which nerve is most likely affected?
- A.Tibial nerve
- B.Sural nerve (provides sensation to the lateral foot only)
- C.Common peroneal nerve (causes foot drop from impaired dorsiflexion, with sensory loss over the dorsum)
- D.Deep peroneal nerve (impairs dorsiflexion, with a small sensory area between the first and second toes)
A patient with a pontine hemorrhage presents with pinpoint pupils. Which artery is most likely damaged?
- A.Anterior cerebral artery (supplies the medial cerebral surface and frontal lobes)
- B.Basilar artery
