hi neosmile.thanks for the answers.
regrding question 2,i was doubting (a) could also be the ans.cortisol causes increased protein breakdown.in first option,its mentioned-increased protein anabolism,so y not option (a) as ans?

pls explain.......

No, Excess cortisols cause protein catabolism, sodium retention and potassium loss and thus hypokalemia.

So, exception is hyperkalemia.
 
Lower third molar extracted and upper molar supraerupted, what movement has the least interference with this Upper molar?
Pro, ret, lateral

Cusp to cusp tip on Left canines, where is the right condyle ??
in the fossa, Medial to it, diastal, anterior, posterior

I think its protraction for 1st..Correct me if I am wrong

pls someone answer the 2nd one..

HI NEOSMILE
i still have a doubt.cortisol causes hypokalemia and protein catabolism.so,in the question-hyperkalemia and protein anabolism both r exceptions,since both r not present in cushings syn......right??????
 
I think its protraction for 1st..Correct me if I am wrong

pls someone answer the 2nd one..

for 2nd,its left lateral excursion-so,rt condyle will move medially and inferiorly......pls correct if im wrong...

I think so too, thanks.

And for cortisol qs, i really didn't notice protein anabolism so i guess another screwed up qs 😕

Will try answering your da qs soon.. Why are the others in hibernation??🙁

bone tissue increases in size by which of the following means?
a.action of osteoclasts
b.mitotic division of osteocytes
c.appositional growth by osteoblasts
d.interstitial growth by osteoblasts

c or d ans????????
 
a stab wound creating a pneumothorax on the left side will usually result in collapse of which of the following?
a.left lung only
b.right lung only
c.both lungs
d.the rib cage on left side
e.left lung and pericardial sac

hey!!i know this question has already been discussed,but i dont remember the ans finally decided.......
is it (a) or (c)???
 
pls confirm the ans-

1)if LA solution is deposited in the pterygopalatine fossa,which is anesthetized?
a.V1
b. V2
c. V3
d.facial nerve
e.vagus nerve

is (b) ans??

2)a tendon consists mainly of
a.reticular fibers
b.elastic fiber bundles
c.loose collagenous bundles
d.dense regular collagenous bundles
e.dense irregular ''

is (d) ans??

3)articulating surface of adult mand condyle is covered by which of the following ?
a.elastic tissue
b.synovial membrane
c.hyaline cartialge
d.typical perichondrium
e.collagenous connective tissue

is (b) ans???
 
Mythyl xanthines such as caffeine and theophylline enhance lipolysis in adipose tissue by ? a.including adenylate cyclase synthesis b.including triglyceride lipase synthesis c. inhibiting cyclic AMP d.dirctly activating an intracellur protein kinase e.enhancing the binding of epinephrine to an extracellular membrane recep


ans is -inhibiting cyclic amp phosphodiesterase.cyclic amp causes release of insulin from pancreas in tissues.methyl xanthines inhibit cyclic amp,thereby causing LIPOLYSIS.
pls if someone can give a better explanation-.........

pls if someone can give a better explanation-.........
many extracellular physiological signalling agents increase intracellular levels of secondary messanger cAMP.these signalling agents activate the seven transmembrane domain class of g proteins coupled receptors.ligand binding causes activation of heterotrimeric g protein which stimulates one or more isoforms of adenyle cyclase tom catalyse production of cAMP.intracellular levels of cAMP are then regulated through actions of cyclic amp phosphodiesterase.
hope it helps in sum way .


adenosine analogues inhibit adepocytes adenyle cyclase by gtp dependent process.

c or d ans????????
answer ....c
i luked into nbde kaplan chap 11 in anatomy pg 601,it says endochondral ossification leads to increase in lenght and appositional ossification leads to increase in width ,so i guess increase in size in ques reffers to the width .plz correct if worng .
