    • D.

      Brain stem

    Correct Answer
    C. Limbic system
    Explanation
    The limbic system is the correct answer because it is a primitive brain area that plays a crucial role in emotions, memory, and motivation. It includes structures such as the hippocampus, amygdala, and hypothalamus, which are involved in regulating basic functions like hunger, thirst, and sexual behavior. The limbic system also helps in forming and retrieving memories and is responsible for the emotional responses associated with various experiences.

    Cells responsible for skeletal muscle regeneration?

    • A.

      Satellite cells

    • B.

      Mesenchymal cells

    • C.

      Myocytes

    • D.

      All of them

    Correct Answer
    A. Satellite cells
    Explanation
    Satellite cells are responsible for skeletal muscle regeneration. These cells are located on the periphery of muscle fibers and become activated in response to muscle damage or injury. Once activated, satellite cells proliferate and differentiate into myoblasts, which then fuse with existing muscle fibers to repair and regenerate damaged muscle tissue. Mesenchymal cells are not directly involved in skeletal muscle regeneration, and myocytes are mature muscle cells that do not have the ability to regenerate new muscle tissue. Therefore, the correct answer is satellite cells.

  • 17. 

    The sources of ATP for muscle contraction arise from?

    • A.

      Glycolysis

    • B.

      TCA cycle ( Oxidative phosphorylation

    • C.

      Creatine phosphate

    • D.

      All of them

    Correct Answer
    D. All of them
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "All of them." ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the primary source of energy for muscle contraction. It is produced through different pathways, including glycolysis, the TCA cycle (oxidative phosphorylation), and the breakdown of creatine phosphate. These processes generate ATP molecules that can be used by muscle cells for contraction. Therefore, all of these sources contribute to the production of ATP for muscle contraction.

    Calmodulin is involved in which of the following?

    • A.

      Skeletal muscle contraction

    • B.

      Smooth muscle contraction

    • C.

      Skeletal muscle relaxation

    • D.

      Smooth muscle relaxation

    Correct Answer
    B. Smooth muscle contraction
    Explanation
    Calmodulin is a calcium-binding protein that plays a crucial role in regulating various cellular processes. It is involved in smooth muscle contraction by binding to and activating myosin light chain kinase (MLCK), which phosphorylates myosin light chains. This phosphorylation leads to the activation of myosin and subsequent contraction of smooth muscle cells. Calmodulin's involvement in skeletal muscle contraction is limited, as it primarily regulates contraction in smooth muscles. It is not directly involved in skeletal muscle relaxation or smooth muscle relaxation.

      Mucosa of pharynx , epiglotis and phayryns

    • D.

      All of the above

    Correct Answer
    D. All of the above
    Explanation
    Taste buds are sensory organs that allow us to detect different tastes. They are present in various locations in the mouth and throat. Fungiform papillae are small bumps on the tongue, and taste buds are found on their surface. Circumvallate papillae are larger bumps at the back of the tongue, and taste buds are located in the trenches surrounding them. Additionally, taste buds can also be found in the mucosa of the pharynx, epiglottis, and pharynx. Therefore, the correct answer is "All of the above" as taste buds are present in all of these locations.

    • B.

      Incremental lines of Retzius

    • C.

      Hunter-Shreger bands

    • D.

      Dead tracts

    Correct Answer
    C. Hunter-Shreger bands
    Explanation
    Hunter-Shreger bands are responsible for the optical appearance of teeth. These bands are formed due to a change in direction of rods in the enamel. The rods in the enamel are not perfectly aligned, and when they change direction, it causes a difference in the way light is reflected and refracted. This change in direction creates alternating bands of light and dark, giving the teeth a characteristic appearance. Therefore, the change in direction of rods is responsible for the optical appearance of Hunter-Shreger bands.

    With age, the volume of pulp decreases because of?

    • A.

      Decrease collagen fibers

    • B.

      Formation of secondary dentin

    • C.

      Increase cellularity

    • D.

      Decrease vascularity

    Correct Answer
    B. Formation of secondary dentin
    Explanation
    As a person ages, the volume of pulp in their teeth decreases due to the formation of secondary dentin. Secondary dentin is a protective layer of dentin that forms on the inner surface of the tooth in response to various factors such as tooth wear, trauma, or decay. This formation of secondary dentin reduces the size of the pulp chamber and therefore decreases the volume of pulp in the tooth.
