This keratinized layer helps to provide a rough surface texture to the tongue, aiding in its function of manipulating food during chewing and swallowing.

Submit
171. Granular cell myoblastoma of tongue is?

Explanation

Granular cell myoblastoma of the tongue is a benign tumor. This type of tumor originates from the myoblasts, which are cells that develop into muscle tissue. Granular cell myoblastoma is characterized by the presence of granular cells, which are large cells with granules in their cytoplasm. Although it is a tumor, it is not considered malignant and does not have the ability to spread to other parts of the body. Therefore, it is classified as a benign tumor.

Submit
172. Which of the following is a wrong statement about the dentogingival junction:

Explanation

The dentogingival junction is the area where the tooth surface meets the gingival tissue. It consists of both an epithelial component and a connective tissue component. The epithelial cells in this region are not keratinized stratified squamous, which is a characteristic of the oral mucosa. Instead, the epithelial cells at the dentogingival junction are non-keratinized. Therefore, the statement that the dentogingival junction has keratinized stratified squamous epithelial cells is incorrect.

Submit
173. Tonsils are on the back of the throat.Where are the adenoids located:

Explanation

The adenoids are located behind the nose and roof of the mouth. Unlike tonsils, which are found in the back of the throat, adenoids are positioned higher up in the nasal cavity. They are part of the immune system and help to trap bacteria and viruses that enter through the nose and mouth.

Submit
174. Stratum granulosum is not present in?

Explanation

The correct answer is Non keratinized epithelium because stratum granulosum is a layer of the epidermis that is responsible for the production of keratin, a tough protein that helps protect the skin from damage. Non keratinized epithelium does not have this layer, as it is found in areas of the body that do not require the same level of protection as keratinized epithelium.

Submit
175. Parakeratinized epithelium is found in:

Explanation

Parakeratinized epithelium refers to a type of epithelial tissue that has partially lost its nucleus and has an abnormal keratinization process. It is commonly found in the gingiva, which is the gum tissue surrounding the teeth. The presence of parakeratinized epithelium in the gingiva helps to provide a protective barrier against mechanical stress and microbial invasion. This type of epithelium is also found in other oral structures such as the vestibular fornix, floor of the mouth, and ventral surface of the tongue, but the gingiva is the most prominent location.

Submit

Submit
177. Endothelium and mesothelium form cellular membranes which have the same histologic structure as?

Explanation

Endothelium and mesothelium are both types of epithelial tissues that form cellular membranes. These membranes have a histologic structure that is similar to simple squamous epithelium. Simple squamous epithelium consists of a single layer of flat, thin cells that allow for easy diffusion of substances. Similarly, endothelium and mesothelium are composed of a single layer of flattened cells that line the blood vessels and body cavities, respectively, and facilitate the movement of substances across them. Therefore, the correct answer is simple squamous epithelium.

Submit
178. The broadest basis for classifying epithelium into subgroups is?

Explanation

The correct answer is "Lining or granular." This classification is based on the appearance of the epithelial cells and their function. Epithelial tissue can be classified as lining epithelium, which forms the inner lining of organs and body cavities, or as glandular epithelium, which is responsible for producing and secreting substances. This classification provides a broad basis for categorizing different types of epithelium based on their structural and functional characteristics.

Submit
179. The mucosa of the dorsal surface of the tongue is:

Explanation

The correct answer is "Specialized mucosa." The mucosa of the dorsal surface of the tongue is specialized because it contains papillae, taste buds, and lingual tonsils, which are not found in other areas of the oral cavity. This specialized mucosa is responsible for the sense of taste and plays a crucial role in the process of mastication and swallowing.
