  1. At which of the following bony junctions does the nasolacrimal duct begin?
a. Nasal and lacrimal bones
b. Nasal and palatine bones
c. Maxilla and nasal bone
d. Maxilla and lacrimal bone

 

 

ANS:  D

 

  Feedback
A The nasal bones form the bridge of the nose and do NOT form part of the nasolacrimal duct.
B The nasal bones form the bridge of the nose, and the palatine bones are posterior to the lacrimal bones. Neither bone forms part of the nasolacrimal duct.

  1. Both the major and minor salivary glands are _______ glands.
a. endocrine
b. exocrine
c. large
d. small

 

 

ANS:  B

 

  Feedback
A All of the salivary glands are exocrine. They secrete saliva into the oral cavity through ducts or directly into the oral cavity. They do NOT secrete saliva into the vascular system like exocrine glands.
B All of the salivary glands are exocrine, so this answer is correct. They do NOT secrete saliva into the vascular system like exocrine glands.
C Major glands are large glands, and minor glands are small glands.
D Major glands are large glands, and minor glands are small glands.
