select one:
true
false

Explanation:

Identify the highlighted glands

The image for Question 25 shows the posterior abdominal wall with the kidneys and the vertebral column. Sitting directly on top of each kidney (superior pole) are two glands highlighted in bright blue. Using the Endocrine Anatomy knowledge point, these cap-like endocrine organs located superior to the kidneys are identified as the adrenal glands (or suprarenal glands).

Analyze the visual accommodation statement

Question 26 asks whether seeing something up close requires the contraction of the ciliary muscles and the thickening of the lens. Using the Anterior Segment Anatomy knowledge point, during near vision (accommodation), the ciliary muscle contracts. This contraction reduces tension on the suspensory ligaments (zonules), allowing the elastic lens to become more spherical and thicker, which increases its refractive power to focus near light rays on the retina. Therefore, the statement is true.

Adrenal glands
