👍thanks pb2007 for the reference


thanks bratdoc,that word ph 1 was bothering me ,anyways i will apply your formula
i remember bratdoc had put up this ques frm 2004 released ques no 363 which i think we didnt find a reasonable explanation ,so was reading usmle notes so came across this

in primary hyperthyroidism increased urinary calcium occurs coz when plasma calcium increases beyond the concentration the kidneys can reabsorb .
 
Bratdoc and all others who are about to finish off ur exm(teethie,pb2007,svetlana,cindrella,wdent)....please dont go away from this forum guys....we amateurs need u guyz here🙂🙂+pity+
 
ok i m going with this explanation, thank u bratdoc👍.


Im kinda weak in chemistry but all i know is this...
at their respective Isoelectric pH
Glutamic acid and Aspartic acid--- negatively charged
Lysine, Histidine and Arginine ---- positively charged
Rest are neutral
There is some concept of whether the pH is greater or lower than the pKa of the amino acid, the carboxyl and amino group will be deprotonated or protonated and accordingly have a negative or positive charge.....

BUT SINCE pKa IS NOT GIVEN I do the same method that others also mentioned on this thread... go with the charge of glutamic acid... and if a question shows many AAs then add all of their charges... Dont really know why the pH is there when the pKa is not given .... but whatever questions i have come across were answered correctly by using this method so i never bothered about the pH detail!!!
But if of course anyone comes across a question in which a correct answer is not derived by this method then we may have to look into it!!!
 
pb2007, all i know is there are 2 carboxylic gps and one amino gp so charge will be -1

Does anyone know abt this question?? I am unable to solve it .😕😕
teethie can you explain how u picked -1 as answer ,sorry for keep bringing this ques bak ,all i kno is that acidic amino acids carry -ve charge n basic ones carry positive .
 
Dont worry annie , i will be here around some forums or another sdners like us would log on this forum, there is no end to learning, this will keep on going ......


Bratdoc and all others who are about to finish off ur exm(teethie,pb2007,svetlana,cindrella,wdent)....please dont go away from this forum guys....we amateurs need u guyz here🙂🙂+pity+
 
in glutamic acid, there are two carboxylic gps, one amino gp, hence net charge will be -2+1= -1

anything wrong?

Dont worry i will also hang bout a bit!!! You will do well! 👍

Agree!👍
Pb2007 This is how the charges are attributed to an amino acid... +ve or -ve depends on the amino groups and carboxylic groups...
 
i do not know but no one has disagreed so i am putting my point here.
Is not immature will have less collagen and mature chondrocyte has more collagen.
is there anything i am getting wrong??


Am i right?
CHONDROCYTES
immature-acidophillic-pink staining(collagen more than GAGs)

mature-basophillic-blue staining(GAGs more than collagen)

What's the relationship between maturity and collagen/GAG conc.?

http://ect.downstate.edu/courseware/histomanual/cartilage.html
acc to this page the acidophilic property is due to collagen in immature but in mature there is basophilic due to the anionic property of proteoglycans... maybe the comparative increase of these is greater than collagen leading to relative basophilia.. and also it states that in mature the collagen maybe hard to see
Best would be to refer a proper histology text!
 
thanku bratdoc for explanation, I might have to read this again from somewhere.
I wish I could have one histology book which I dont. never mind, i will read again.

thanku bratdoc and teethie for clarifying this doubt .i never though in terms of indiviual groups ,ok got it now.

excuse pb this question is from which year?
cause i think that at physiologic ph the glutamic acid is -1 not at ph=1

Today i solved this quest. its in ASDA paper I-J number 182 ,it has the SIMILAR concept where PH=7
2 COO- and a peptide containing 1 amino grp
-2+1 = -1 🙂

don't worry i'm sure we'd be in the phase of learning even after the exam ... 👍
 
pb2007, see below:

another ph ques
a urine sample with a ph of 5.7 has a hydrogen ion conc of approx
2multiply 10power -3
2 multiply 10power ....can't read
1 multiply 10 power .....
how to tackle such ques,i'm blank in ph concept ,plz help me.......

remember this formula
pH = -log (hydrogen ion concentration) = -log [H+]
coming to option 1: in this case u have to solve with answers given to find out ph.
ph= -log(2x10-3)
ph= -(log2-3log10)
ph= -(0.3-3)
ph=2.7 -----given ph =5.7 so this is not the answer

second option: i guess 2x10-6
ph= -log(2x10-6)
ph= -(log2-6log10)
ph=-(o.3-6)
ph=-5.7----this is the answer matching with your question 5.7


transmission of sound from tympanic membrane to cochleaaccompalished by which
nerve fibres
auditory ossicles.....is this the answer ?? -------agree.👍
wave charecteristic of sound

for me i choose renin

pls correct me if i'm wrong
 
thank s teethie and elmos
i knew teethie you can put that ph ques into my head👍👍
teethie how many logs do we need to learn like log of 2 is 0.3 etc,do we need to mug these up
guys i'v added few more to the list plz have a look at them too
elmos can u explain why u picked 3rd choice for glucose ques.can u explain me
 
oh pb2007, all credit goes to my hubby. i also had no idea of these log things. u dont have to mug these.
u know log10=1
anything below log of 10 will be less than 1 so start decreasing the value from 1
in exam we dont have calculator but if u chose any option less than 1, u will still get the answer,because key lies in the later half of the question i.e. 10 raise to the power minus 5 etc.

what i know that saline contains 2 mole it's na and cl but glucose is 1 mole, so u have more osmolarity in the saline, so the water will move from glucose to nacl,
correct me if i'm wrong.
 
can someone please put up the morphologic combinations of anemia ? are all hemolytic anemias microcytic and hypochromic or only Thalassemia is micro and hypo ??

Is iron def ... microcytic and normochromic ??

iron deficiency,thalassemia is microcytic hypochromic.

aplastic anemia,drug induced is normocytic normochromic

Is iron def ... microcytic and normochromic ??------

do we need to learn the range wen we memorize the calcification status of primary dentition
page no 25 of wheelers mentions both in form of range n number ...iefor primary max incisor 14{13 to 16 ]

range will be better to solve questions of all form. or just have an idea that range will be somewhere around the number in case u cant memorise the range.

facial heigh of contour for all teeth are in cervical third .
lingual " " " for anterior are in cervical third and posterior in middle third except mandibular 2nd premolar which has it in occlusal third.

am i missing something or this is correct ?
 
--

facial heigh of contour for all teeth are in cervical third .---------------------yes👍

lingual " " " for anterior are in cervical third ---------yes👍

and posterior in middle third except mandibular 2nd premolar which has it in occlusal third------------------no, all mandibular posteriors have lingual ht. of contour at middle one third except
mand 1st premolar( it has at junc of cervical and middle third)and this feature of mand. 1st premolar is seen in all max posteriors at lingual ht. of contours.




am i missing something or this is correct ?
 
Teethy, are you sure about lingual of max.post?
coz acc. to kaplan its also in the middle 1/3.

Agree,the only exc.mand.1st PM-junction
 
svetlana, my ref is also from kaplan, all max posteriors have lingual ht. of contour at junction not middle third.

Guys did you hear smth like
"maxilla and mandible are derived from neural crest"

I know it's from 1st arch,but have found it in my notes...😕
 
no, did not read anywhere.


one question: Is hb level used to confirm bacterial infection in addition to wbc count?
