The flexor carpi ulnaris, the flexor pollicis brevis, and the flexor pollicis longus. None . 3. [You decide to use a group of healthy college student volunteers to study the effects of BAPS board exercises on ankle ROM and balance scores. Twenty volunteers participate in the 20-minute exercise sessions 3times a week for 6weeks. Measurements are taken at the beginning and end of the sessions. At the conclusion of the study, significant differences were found in both sets of scores. Based on this research design, you conclude that: ] The validity of the study was threatened with the introduction of sampling bias. BAPS board exercises are an effective intervention to improve ankle stability following chronic ankle sprain. The reliability of the study was threatened with the introduction of systematic error of measurement. The Hawthorne effect may have influenced the outcome of the study. None . 4.

[Cardiac muscle is physiologically different from skeletal muscle in that:] It has no fibrous or bony attachments. Actin and myosin filaments produce a different type of striation. It does not develop a length-tension relationship. It functions as a syncytium divided into atrial and ventricular portions. None . 9. [A coxa valga deformity is:] An increase in the angle of inclination between the neck of the femur and the shaft. A lengthening of the extremity on the involved side. A deformity of the knee.

The patient is unable to tell you whether you are touching him with one or two points. This could indicate impaired function in the ] Anterior spinothalamic tract or thalamus. Lateral spinothalamic tract or somatosensory cortex. Dorsal column/lemniscal pathways or somatosensory cortex. Spinal lemniscus or ventral posterolateral nucleus of the thalamus. None . 13. [Which of the following muscles is an important stabilizer of the scapula?] Levator scapulae. Latissimus dorsi. Serratus anterior. Deltoid. None . 14. [Hypertrophy of the left ventricle of the heart is associated with] Aortic stenosis. Mitral stenosis. Pulmonary stenosis. None of the above. None . 15. [True or false: For any given cardiac output, the mean pressure will be controlled by the resistance factor.] True. False. None . 16.
