Cushing’s reflex helps to maintain
Correct Answer
A. Cerebral blood flow
Explanation
When intra cranial pressure is increased, the blood supply to the vasomotor area is compromised and the local hypoxia capnia increase its discharge. The resultant rise is the systematic arterial pressure (Cushing reflex) tends to restore the blood flow to the medulla and over a considerable range; the blood pressure is raised proportional to the increase in Intra cranial pressure.

All are involved in the pathway of T3 synthesis except
Correct Answer
A. Ingestion of potassium iodide
Explanation
Trapping of iodine and coupling are inviolved in process of T3 synthesis but not ingestion of potassium iodide.
5.
Blood flow to the heart is maximum during
Correct Answer
B. Diastole
Explanation
Coronary vessels are severely compressed during systole. During diastole the cardiac muscle reflaxes and no longer onstruct the blood flow through the left ventricular capillaries so that blood now flows rapidly during all diastole.

A. Projection fibres
Explanation
Pyramidal fibers are a type of projection fibers. Projection fibers are responsible for transmitting information between the cerebral cortex and other parts of the brain and spinal cord. Therefore, the correct answer is projection fibers.

- Lutenising hormone (LH)
- Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)
- Prolactin and growth hormone
ACTH, prolactin and growth hormone are simple polypeptides
11.
One of the following neurotransmitter acts at the myoneural junction
Correct Answer

Explanation
Neuromuscular junction
Sequence of events during transmission
Steps in contraction
1. Discharge of motor neurons
2. Release of transmitter (acetylcholine) at motor end plate.
3. Binding of acetycholine to nicotinine acetycholine receptor.
4. Increased Na+ and K+ conductance in end plate
5. Generation of action potential muscle fibres.
6. Inward spread of depolarization along T tubules.
7. Generation of end plate potential.
8. Release of Ca+2 from terminal cisterns of sarcoplasmic reticulum and diffusion to thick and thin filaments.
9. Binding of Ca+2 to troponin C, uncovering myosin binding sites on action.
10. Formation of cross linkages between actin and myosin and sliding of thick filaments producing movements.
12.
All of the following are increased during exercise except
Correct Answer
C. PeripHeral vascular resistances
Explanation
Systemic circulatory changes to exercise
1. Heart Rate- rises
2. Systolic and Diastolic Blood pressure sharply rise.
3. Stroke volume- marked increase.
4. Total peripheral resistance- net fall.

15.
In JVP, ‘c’ wave indicates
Correct Answer
D. Ventricular contraction
Explanation
C’ wave is the transmitted manifestation of the rise in the atrial pressure produced by the bulging of the tricuspid valve into the atria during isovolumetric ventricular contraction.
‘a’ –wave-atrail systole, ‘v’ wave – rise in atrial pressure before tricuspid valve opens during diastole.
16.
In exercises all the following parameters are changed except
Correct Answer
C. Increased peripHeral vascular resistance
Explanation
In exercises, various physiological changes occur in the body to meet the increased demand for oxygen and nutrients. These changes include increased cardiac output, increased blood pressure, and increased heart rate. However, increased peripheral vascular resistance is not a parameter that changes during exercise. Peripheral vascular resistance refers to the resistance encountered by blood flow in the peripheral blood vessels. During exercise, the blood vessels in the muscles dilate to allow more blood flow, reducing the resistance. Therefore, the correct answer is "Increased peripheral vascular resistance."
17.
Which one of the following indicates are reflex
Correct Answer
B. Flare
Explanation
Triple response
When all the skin is stroked more firmly with a pointed instrument, instead of the white reaction there is reddening at the site that appears in about 10 seconds( Red reaction) wheal- local edema due to capillary permeability flare-redness spreading out from the injury. This three-part response the red reaction. Wheal and flare are called triple response.
Flare:- It is due to axon reflex.
Evidence:- Flare is absent in locally anaesthetized skin and in deneverated skin after the sensory nerves have degenerated

Resting membrane potential depends upon
Correct Answer
B. K+ level
Explanation
Ionic Basis of resting membranes potential
K channelks maintain the resting potential.
- Na+ is actively transported out of neurons and other cells.
- K+ is actively transported into cells.
- K+ moves out of cells and Na+ moves in but because of K+ permeability at rest is greater than Na+ permeability.

B. Muscle fibres supplied by single nerve fibres
Explanation
The motor unit
- Each single motor neuron and the muscle fiber it innervates constitutes a motor unit.
- Each spinal motor neuron innervates only one kind of muscle fiber, so that all of the muscle fibre in a motor unit are of the same type
