Bianca went on a trip to the Bahamas during spring vacation and did not study for her anatomy test scheduled early the following week. On the test, she mixed up the following pairs of structures: (a) the rectal valves and the anal valves, (b) pyloric part and pylorus of the stomach, (c) anal canal and anus, (d) villi and microvilli (in the small intestine), (e) hepatic vein and hepatic portal vein, (f) gastric pits and gastric glands. Help her by defining and differentiating between these sound-alike structures.
Select the best answer or answers from the choices given: Assume that the body has been sectioned along three planes: (1) a median plane, (2) a frontal plane, and (3) a transverse plane made at the level of each of the organs listed below. Which organs would be visible in only one or two of these three cases? (a) urinary bladder, (b) brain, (c) lungs, (d) kidneys, (e) small intestine, (f) heart.
