3) decreased solubility of deoxy form of HB
4) P50 value for HB similar to that of myoglobin
5) Decreased number of subunits of HB

Can someone explain this plz ?

Ans 3)
sickle cell hemoglobin differed from normal hemoglobin by a single amino acid, the number 6 position in the beta chain of hemoglobin. That one small molecular difference made the enormous difference in people's lives between good health and disease.Deoxygenated sickle-cell anemia Hb was much less soluble and formed "one-dimensional" crystals, leading to the well-known distortion of red cells in the disease;

Hi,

if Adenine is 22%-Thymine is 22%=44%.
100-44=56.
so.....guanine and cytosine makes 56%...i.e.56/2=28.

so G is 28% -C is 28%.

hope this helps.

A. gynecomastia
B. Mallory bodies

Mallory bodies are found in both Hepatic Renal failure!
wat are the other options in the question?

 

[oldmirage]

hi..
even i feel the answer to 2) is b. but really not sure b/w a. and b.

The options for symptoms for hepatic failure are

A. asterixis
B. Hypoalbuminemia
C. gynecomastia
D. Mallory bodies
E. spider telangiectasia

i think it should be C., coz all the others are def. the symptoms..

hi for t rna,its carry 2 arm,one for anticodon,and one for aminoacid selection.t rna acceptor arm select aminoacid and activete it .
ans for que 4 is prolactin beceuse it secrete prolactin inhibit factor.if its block so not longer inhibit prolactin and its secreted lot.so simple.
think for que 5 is lever action.u seat one side ,other side is come up .like that.
for last que,mesial side ,lateral side ,buccal divide into 2 by slope ridge and lingual side .ok 5 side.its easy,ask me whatever i can solve anything because i did worldwide basics only.i need to check it my [email protected]

 

[oldmirage]

thanx yuvadoc.
i think u r perfectly right for 2.
as for 3., still not sure, bcoz it asks for staphylococci in general, coagulase is prod. only by S. aureus and S. epidermis..some1 correct me if wrong..

2. Osteosarcoms has typical sunburst appearance or radioopaque st. radiating all around.

Explanation for Que. 1--
The ligaments, being fibrous connective tissue in composition,
play no role in movement of the condyle. Muscular tissue is necessary for this movement,
specifically fibers from the upper head of the lateral pterygoid muscle. There is disagreement
among anatomy sources as to the function or role of the ligaments. None give the ligaments
an extremely important function, but most claim that they help limit motion of the mandible
beyond a certain point, or act as barriers to excessive forward or downward motion. Others
give the ligaments a general strengthening function which adds stability to the joint.

Hitoplasma capsulatum
Infection results after inhalation of the conidia. This results in a variety of clinical manifestations. Approximately 95% of cases are inapparent, subclinical, or completely benign. The disease is diagnosed only by the X-ray findings of residual areas of pulmonary calcification and a positive histoplasmin skin test. Approximately 40 million people in the USA (that number is not a typo) have had the disease, and 200,000 new infections occur every year The remaining 5% develop a chronic progressive lung disease, a chronic cutaneous or systemic disease, or an acute fulminating rapidly fatal systemic infection. The latter form is particularly common in children. Following infection there is an acute alveolitis, and macrophages engulf the organism, resulting in an inflammatory reaction. Macrophages probably carry the organism to other parts of the body very early in the course of the infection.

HI ,
they r asking the buccolingual dimention,if it is mesiodistal then it ll be 60-70.
if u don't mind can u also explain the Q which asked in the same thread.
thanks in advance

I had a question regarding this testlet question. If anybody could explain the answer it would be much appreciated. Thanks!
A 42 year old female with a hix of hyperparathyroidism presents witha complaint of bilateral pain in the TMJ joint on closing. She reports that her ears are occasionally clogged and she sometimes experiances a ringing sensation. The dentist determines that these symptoms are related to her TMJ condition.
Which of the following will most likely be increased in this patient?
a) Intestinal calcium absorption
b)intestinal organic phosphate absorption
c)renal calcitriol production
d)renal calcium excretion
e)renal organic phosphate extretion

According to the answers, the answer SHOULD be D. However I thought hyperparathyroidism presented with decreased clearance of Calcium? Is this an error in the exam or am I wrong?

true what you are saying but even i don't know the ans
