This BIOLOGY: ANATOMY/PHYSIOLOGY: MUSCULAR SYSTEM: ASSESSMENT is designed for secondary school students to demonstrate their knowledge on the topic of the muscular system. This BIOLOGY: ANATOMY/PHYSIOLOGY: MUSCULAR SYSTEM: ASSESSMENT presents 25 questions and an extra credit question in the form of statements for students to decide whether the statement is TRUE or FALSE. Use these muscular system PowerPoint slides to review muscle structure and contraction before the assessment.

This biology: anatomy/physiology: muscular system: assessment is to be completed individually.

Students are to read each statement carefully. Then, they are to write T for true or F for false on the lines provided. Each correct response is worth 4 points. There is 1 extra credit opportunity worth 12 points. Maximum score for this assessment is 112.
