1. Describe the elbow joint: state the motions of which it is capable, and the muscles by which they are affected. Enumerate the large vessels and nerves which are in the immediate vicinity of the joint, mentioning their most important relations to each other, and to any other part, and noticing irregularities which sometimes occur. Say if there be in the lower extremity any muscle analogous to the pronator teres.

2. Enumerate the muscles by which the ordinary respiratory movements are produced, mentioning the action of each, and the portion of the nervous system from which its nerves are derived. Enumerate, also, those other muscles which are most distinctly called into action in difficult and laborious respiration, stating their actions, and whence their nerves are supplied.

3. Compare the small and the large intestine with each other as to their most important circumstances of resemblance and difference. Say from what sources their nerves and arteries proceed, and what trunks their veins join; considering the structure and ordinary function of the ilio-colic valve, explain by what means the anti-peristaltic movements of the large intestine cause its contents to pass through that valve into the small intestine.

4. What is the character of the mucous membrane lining the larynx and trachea, and of its epithelium; what is its mode of sensibility, and by what nerves is it supplied? Enumerate the muscles by whose motions the form and size of the rima glottidis are affected, specifying the action of each, and the nerves by which they are supplied.

5. Describe the structure of the urethra and prostate gland, their relations to each other, and to the nearest bones and portion of the alimentary canal. Say from what trunks their vessels and nerves come; which are the muscles acting directly upon them; in what part of the urethra its lacunæ are situated, and in what part an instrument passed from its orifice towards the bladder, is most likely to be obstructed.
