They are tough, flexible bands of fibrous connective tissue that connects muscles to bones. As muscles contract, they transmit the forces to the rigid bones, pulling on them and causing movement.

A. muscles

B. bones

C. tendons

D. intestines

E. joints

What is this text about?

A. bones

B. joints

C. hands

D. legs

E. ribs

What is this text about?

They are small bands of dense, white, fibrous elastic tissue. They connect the ends of bones together in order to form a joint. Since they are only elastic they increasingly lengthen when under pressure. When this occurs they may be susceptible to break resulting in an unstable joint.

A. ligaments

B. ribs

C. joints

D. bones

E. vertebrae

C. nucleus

D. membrane

E. chromosome

What is this text about?

The basic physical unit of heredity; a linear sequence of nucleotides along a segment of DNA that provides the coded instructions for synthesis of RNA, which, when translated into protein, leads to the expression of hereditary character.

A. gland

B. kidney

C. brain

D. cell

E. nucleus

What is this text about?

A. muscle

B. ligament

C. cartilage

D. bone

E. joint

What is the text about?

The organ of hearing and equilibrium in vertebrates, in humans consisting of an external ear that gathers sound vibrations, a middle ear in which the vibrations resonate against the tympanic membrane, and a fluid-filled internal ear that maintains balance and that conducts the tympanic vibrations to the auditory nerve, which transmits them as impulses to the brain.

A. eye

B. lip

C. cheek

D. ear

E. head

What is the text about?

The organ of sight, in vertebrates typically one of a pair of spherical bodies contained in an orbit of the skull and in humans appearing externally as a dense, white, curved membrane, or sclera, surrounding a circular, colored portion, or iris, that is covered by a clear, curved membrane, or cornea, and in the center of which is an opening, or pupil, through which light passes to the retina.
