which of following is not correct about interleukins?

1. IL-5 is produced by activated T helper cells and mast cells.
2. IL-3 is secreted by T helper cells and mast cells.
3. IL-8 is secreted by monocytes and macrophages.
4. IL-10 is produced by activated T cells and mast cells
5. IL-7 is secreted by bone marrow stromal cells.

(reference from Kaplan Dent essentials:

IL-5 (source) TH2 cees
IL-3 TH cells, NK cells
IL-8 Macrophagess, endothelial cesss
IL-10 TH2 cells
IL-7 Primary lymph organs (so this one should be correct answer)?

Each of the following DNA virus encodes a DNA polymerase except one, which is this exception?

1. Hepatitis B virus(yes for polymerase)
2. SV40
3. Adneovirus (No)
4. EB Virus (No)
5. Poxvirus (yes for polymerase)

which one should be the right answer?

M protein

from kaplan

beta haemolytic sterptococci r furthr subdivided into gps A through D AND F ,G basd on antibodies to heat stable acid stable carbohydrate in their cell wall called C CARBOHYDRATE or LANCEFIELD Ag.........

m confusd???wt shd b the ans????

k got it .....all ve C POLYSACCHARIDE n so the differnce lies in Ab to it so in pyogenes it will b M PROTEIN

Occlusocervically, the height of the mesial marginal ridge of a permanent mandibular first molar is the same as the height of the
1. triangular ridge of the mesiofacial cusp of a mandibular first molar.
2. triangular ridge of the distofacial cusp of a mandibular first molar.
3. distal marginal ridge of a mandibular first molar.
4. mesial marginal ridge of a mandibular second molar.
5. distal marginal ridge of a mandibular second premolar​
 
32. When viewing a maxillary central incisor from the mesial aspect, one normally finds the incisal ridge of the crown
1. facial to the center of the root.
2. lingual to the center of the root.

4. in variable positions​

Ans: 1) facial to the center of root.
 
39. In a right lateral excursion, the mesiofacial cusp of the maxillary right first molar passes through which of the following grooves of the mandibular right first molar?
1. Lingual groove
2. Central groove
3. Facial groove
4. Distofacial groove
I think the right answer should be the mesial facial groove of the 1st mandibular, right? But the key given to the answer is 1, lingual groove, why?
 
On the occlusal surface of a maxillary molar, the groove that representt the working path of the distofacial cusp of the mandibular molar is the
1. central groove.
2. facial groove.
3. lingual groove.
4. distal oblique groove.
5. transverse groove of the oblique ridge.
 
The design of a restored occlusal surface is dependent upon the
(a) contour of the articular eminence.
(b) position of the tooth in the arch.
(c) amount of lateral shift in the rotating condyle.
(d) amount of vertical overlap of anterior teeth.

A. (a) and (c) only
B. (b), (c), and (d) only
C. (b) and (d) only
D. (c) and (d) only
E. (a), (b), (c), and (d)​
