    Slow pain impluses are transmitted by ___

    • C Delta fibers

    • A Delta fibers

    Correct Answer
    A. C Delta fibers
    Explanation
    Slow pain impulses are transmitted by C Delta fibers. Delta fibers are a type of nerve fibers that transmit both fast and slow pain signals. However, C Delta fibers specifically transmit slow pain impulses. These fibers are unmyelinated, which means they have a slower conduction velocity compared to A Delta fibers, which transmit fast pain impulses. Slow pain impulses are typically associated with dull, aching, and throbbing pain sensations that persist over a longer duration.

    ___ Pain is caused by simulation of deep internal pain receptors

    • Visceral Pain

    • Radiating Pain

    Correct Answer
    A. Visceral Pain
    Explanation
    Visceral pain is the correct answer because it refers to the type of pain that originates from the internal organs, such as the stomach, intestines, or bladder. This type of pain is caused by the stimulation of deep internal pain receptors, which are sensitive to stretching, inflammation, or ischemia of the organs. Unlike radiating pain, which refers to pain that spreads from one area to another, visceral pain is specifically associated with the internal organs. Therefore, the given statement accurately describes the cause of visceral pain.

    Pain arise on skin or sub cutaneous tissue___

    • Cutaneous / Superficial Pain

    • Acute Pain

    Correct Answer
    A. Cutaneous / Superficial Pain
    Explanation
    Cutaneous or superficial pain refers to pain that arises from the skin or the subcutaneous tissue. This type of pain is typically sharp, localized, and easily identifiable. It is caused by stimulation of the pain receptors in the skin or the underlying tissue, such as a cut, burn, or abrasion. Acute pain, on the other hand, is a broader term that refers to any sudden and intense pain that lasts for a short duration. While cutaneous/superficial pain can be acute, it can also be chronic depending on the underlying cause.

    Fast pain impulse are transmitted by ___

    • A-Delta fibers

    • C-Delta fibers

    Correct Answer
    A. A-Delta fibers
    Explanation
    Fast pain impulses are transmitted by A-Delta fibers. A-Delta fibers are myelinated nerve fibers that transmit sharp, localized pain signals quickly to the brain. These fibers are responsible for the initial sharp pain sensation that occurs immediately after an injury. C-Delta fibers, on the other hand, are unmyelinated nerve fibers that transmit slow, dull, and longer-lasting pain signals. Therefore, A-Delta fibers are the correct answer for fast pain impulse transmission.

     Bones, ligaments, tendons, nerves, blood vessels pain___

    • Nervous Pain

    • Deep somatic pain

    Correct Answer
    A. Deep somatic pain
    Explanation
    Deep somatic pain refers to pain that originates from the bones, ligaments, tendons, nerves, and blood vessels. This type of pain is usually described as a dull, aching sensation and can be localized or spread over a larger area. It is different from nervous pain, which is caused by damage or dysfunction of the nerves themselves. Therefore, deep somatic pain is the most appropriate answer for the given question.

    Chronic & complex pain caused due to nerve injury is ___

    • Neuropathic

    • Neurological

    Correct Answer
    A. Neuropathic
    Explanation
    Neuropathic pain refers to chronic and complex pain caused by nerve injury. This type of pain occurs when there is damage or dysfunction in the nervous system, leading to abnormal pain signals being sent to the brain. Neurological pain, on the other hand, refers to any pain that is related to the nervous system, which can include various types of pain such as headaches or migraines. Therefore, the correct answer in this case is "Neuropathic" as it specifically describes the chronic and complex pain caused by nerve injury.

    ___Occurs in an area distant from the original site

    • Referred Pain

    • Referral Pain

    Correct Answer
    A. Referred Pain
    Explanation
    Referred pain is a phenomenon where pain is felt in a different area of the body than the actual source of the pain. It occurs when the nerves from the affected area and another area of the body converge onto the same pathway in the spinal cord, causing the brain to perceive the pain as originating from the second area. This can lead to confusion in diagnosing the actual cause of the pain, as the symptoms may be felt in a location distant from the original site.

    The most common type of pain is ___

    • Neuropathic

    • Nociceptive

    Correct Answer
    A. Nociceptive
    Explanation
    Nociceptive pain is the most common type of pain. This type of pain occurs when the nociceptors, which are specialized nerve endings, detect potential tissue damage or actual tissue damage. It is typically caused by an injury or inflammation and is characterized by a sharp, aching, or throbbing sensation. Neuropathic pain, on the other hand, is caused by damage or dysfunction in the nervous system and is often described as a burning or shooting pain. However, nociceptive pain is more prevalent and commonly experienced by individuals.

    ___ pain starts and extends to other part of body

    • Radiating Pain

    • Referred Pain

    Correct Answer
    A. Radiating Pain
    Explanation
    Radiating pain refers to the type of pain that starts in one area and then extends or spreads to other parts of the body. This can occur when there is irritation or compression of a nerve, causing the pain to travel along the nerve pathway. Referred pain, on the other hand, is pain that is felt in a different area of the body than where the actual problem or injury is located. Therefore, the correct answer in this case is radiating pain, as it accurately describes the pain starting in one area and extending to other parts of the body.

    ___ pain arise from mind

    • Physiological

    • Psychogenic

    Correct Answer
    A. Psychogenic
    Explanation
    Psychogenic pain refers to pain that is primarily caused by psychological factors, such as stress, anxiety, or depression. This type of pain is not directly related to any physical injury or disease. In contrast, physiological pain is caused by a physical injury or illness. Therefore, since the pain in this question is stated to arise from the mind, it is more likely to be psychogenic in nature rather than physiological.

    In a process of ___, nociceptors become activated by the perception of potentially damaging mechanical, thermal & chemical stimuli

    • Transduction

    • Transmission

    Correct Answer
    A. Transduction
    Explanation
    Nociceptors are sensory receptors that detect and respond to potentially damaging stimuli. During the process of transduction, these nociceptors become activated when they perceive mechanical, thermal, and chemical stimuli that may cause harm. Transduction is the conversion of these stimuli into electrical signals that can be transmitted to the brain for further processing and interpretation. Therefore, transduction is the correct answer in this context.
