Which one of the following diseases is caused due to immunological disorder against an unknown antigen?

  1. Stroke

  2. Tuberculosis

  3. Rheumatic arthritis

  4. Multiple sclerosis
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

  • Rheumatic arthritis is an example of an autoimmune disease that affects the joints.
  • The autoimmune diseases are generated due to the activity of the immune cells against the self-cells. 
  • The immune cells are not able to distinguish between the self and the non-self cells. 
  • There is no known antigen that can provoke the immune cells to show an immune response against the cells of the body. 
Thus, the correct answer is option C.

Gout is a

  1. Deficiency disease

  2. Infectious disease

  3. Degenerative disease

  4. None of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Gout is a clinical condition. Gout is a kind of arthritis. It can cause an attack of sudden burning pain, stiffness and swelling in a joint, usually a big toe. These attacks can happen over and over unless gout is treated. Over time, they can harm your joints, tendons and other tissues. Gout is most common in men. Gout is caused by too much uric acid in the blood. Most of the time, having too much uric acid isn't harmful. Many people with high levels in their blood never get gout. But when uric acid levels in your blood are too high, the uric acid may form hard crystals in your joints. It's not a degenerative disease, infectious disease and deficiency disease. Thus, option D is correct.

Still disease is a type of

  1. Arthritis

  2. Rickets

  3. Sprain

  4. Osteoporosis
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Still's disease is an inflammation of joints causing arthritis which produces symptoms such as fever, rash, and joint pains. If it is not treated, the inflammation may destroy joints particularly the wrist joints. Steroids are used in treating this rare disease.

So, the correct answer is 'Arthritis'

Read the given statements and select the correct option.
Statement 1 : Inflammation of a skeletal joint may immobilise the movements of the joint.
Statement 2 : This is caused due to uric acid crystals in the joint cavity and ossification of articular cartilage.

  1. Both statements 1 and 2 are correct.

  2. Statement 1 is correct but statement 2 is incorrect.

  3. Statement 1 is incorrect but statement 2 is correct.

  4. Both statements 1 and 2 are incorrect
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Both statements 1 & 2 are correct with respect to the skeletal joint.

So, the correct option is 'Both statements 1 and 2 are correct.'

Inflammation of synovial membrane produces

  1. Gout

  2. Rheumatoid arthritis

  3. Dislocation

  4. Osteoarthritis
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation
Rheumatoid Arthritis is an autoimmune disease that particularly affects the synovial membrane of joints leading to excessive production of synovial fluid thereby stretching the joint capsule causing joint pains.
Osteoarthritis is an inflammation and damage of the articular cartilages of joints causing joint pains. It does not primarily affect the synovial membrane.
Gout or Hyperuricaemia is an excessive amount of uric acid in blood leading to the accumulation of urate crystals in the joints causing joint pains.
Dislocation of the joint is a condition where the bone slips out of the joint due to an injury.

So, the correct answer is 'Rheumatoid arthritis'.

Gout that leads to arthritis is associated with abnormality of

  1. Pyrimidine metabolism

  2. Purine metabolism

  3. Fat metabolism

  4. Protein metabolism
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation
Gout or Hyperuricaemia is a condition of increased uric acid in the blood. Uric acid is the end product of purine(Adenine, Guanine) metabolism in the body.
Any abnormality in the uric acid metabolism can lead to overproduction of uric acid and excessive uric acid in the blood can lead to accumulation of urate crystals in joints causing inflammation of joints/arthritis.
So, the correct answer is 'Purine metabolism'

Which of the following is due to irregularity in metabolism of nitrogenous waste?

  1. Osteoarthritis

  2. Rheumatoid arthritis

  3. Osteoporosis

  4. Gouty arthritis
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Gouty arthritis is an inherited disorder of purine metabolism, occurring especially in men, gout is related to diet that giving rise to severe arthritis called gouty arthritis, a person suffering from gout should avoid meat. Purine is a nitrogenous waste.

So the correct answer is 'Gouty arthritis'.

Multiple choice zoology musculo-skeletal system red and white muscle types of muscle fibres locomotion and movements

Myoglobin occurs in

  1. White muscle fibres

  2. Red muscle fibres

  3. Involuntary muscles

  4. All of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation
  • Muscle is a  bundle of fibrous tissue in a body that has the ability to contract, producing movement in or maintaining the position of parts of the body.
  • The total number of muscles in the human body comes in the range of 640-850.
  • Muscles appear in red color due to a pigment called myoglobin. It receives oxygen from the red blood cells and transports it to the mitochondria of muscle cells, where the oxygen is used in cellular respiration to produce energy. Hence myoglobin occurs in red muscle fibers. So, the correct answer is 'Red muscle fibers'.

Collagen fibres are ____________.

  1. White

  2. Yellow

  3. Pale

  4. Brown
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

  • Collagen is a type of protein fibre found abundantly throughout our body.
  •  It provides strength and protects many different areas of the body, including the skin.
  •  These White fibres, made up of collagen are white and shining which are strong, non-elastic and tough. 
  • More specifically, collagen is found in our various types of connective tissues such as cartilage, tendons, bones, and ligaments. Hence, collagen fibres are white.
So, the correct answer is 'white'.

Multiple choice zoology musculo-skeletal system red and white muscle types of muscle fibres locomotion and movements

Red muscles have abundant

  1. Lactic acid and acetic acid

  2. Glucose and haemoglobin

  3. Relaxin and myosin

  4. Myoglobin and cytochrome

  5. None of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation
  • Muscle is a  bundle of fibrous tissue in a body that has the ability to contract, producing movement in or maintaining the position of parts of the body.
  • Muscles appear in red color due to a pigment called myoglobin. Myoglobin receives oxygen from the red blood cells and transports it to the mitochondria of muscle cells, where the oxygen is used in cellular respiration to produce energy.
  • Cytochrome is a protein associated with the inner membrane of mitochondria. As the number of mitochondria is abundant in red fibers thus represents the abundance of cytochrome in red muscles. 
  • Hence red muscles are rich in myoglobin and cytochrome.
  • So, the correct answer is 'Myoglobin and cytochrome'.
