Electrical synapse common in?
Correct Answer
D. Cardiac and Smooth muscle
Explanation
Electrical synapses are specialized connections between cells that allow for the direct transfer of electrical signals. These synapses are found in both cardiac and smooth muscle. In cardiac muscle, electrical synapses play a crucial role in coordinating the contraction of individual cells, ensuring the synchronized pumping of the heart. In smooth muscle, electrical synapses facilitate the coordinated contraction of cells in organs such as the digestive system and blood vessels. Therefore, the correct answer is Cardiac and Smooth muscle.

Cells responsible for skeletal muscle regeneration?
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?
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.

20.
Calmodulin is involved in which of the following?
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.

The change in direction of rods is responsible for optical appearance of
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.
41.
With age, the volume of pulp decreases because of?
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.
