    Negative N Balance is indicator of acute stress or protein deficiency.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Negative N Balance refers to a state in which nitrogen excretion exceeds nitrogen intake in the body. This can occur due to acute stress or protein deficiency. During times of acute stress, such as illness or injury, the body may break down more protein than it can replace, leading to a negative nitrogen balance. Similarly, inadequate protein intake can also result in a negative nitrogen balance. Therefore, it is true that negative N Balance can be an indicator of acute stress or protein deficiency.

    Albumin Changes slowly over time except when influenced by factors such as shifts from blood to tissues, lymphedema, dehydration

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Albumin is a protein found in the blood and plays a crucial role in maintaining the body's fluid balance. It is known to change slowly over time, as it is produced by the liver and has a long half-life. However, certain factors can influence its levels more rapidly, such as shifts from the blood to tissues, lymphedema (accumulation of lymph fluid), and dehydration. These factors can cause a sudden decrease in albumin levels. Therefore, the statement that albumin changes slowly over time except when influenced by these factors is true.

    Ketone Adapted Phase occur in prolonged starvation

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    During prolonged starvation, when the body's glucose stores are depleted, it begins to break down fatty acids for energy. This process leads to the production of ketone bodies, which can be used as an alternative fuel source by the brain and other tissues. This adaptation is known as the Ketone Adapted Phase and is a natural response to prolonged periods of fasting or very low carbohydrate intake. Therefore, the statement that Ketone Adapted Phase occurs in prolonged starvation is true.

    The main symptom for kwashiorkor is :

    • Edema

    • Diarrhea 

    • Vomiting 

    • Non of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Edema
    Explanation
    Edema is the main symptom of kwashiorkor. Kwashiorkor is a severe form of malnutrition caused by a deficiency in protein intake. Edema refers to the swelling of body tissues due to fluid accumulation. In kwashiorkor, the lack of protein leads to a decrease in the production of albumin, a protein responsible for maintaining fluid balance in the body. This imbalance causes fluid to accumulate in the tissues, resulting in edema. Diarrhea and vomiting are common symptoms of other types of malnutrition but are not specifically associated with kwashiorkor.

    Clotting factors are present in :

    • Serum

    • Plasma

    • Skeletal muscles

    • Non of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Plasma
    Explanation
    Clotting factors are proteins that are essential for the process of blood clotting. They are primarily found in plasma, which is the liquid component of blood. Plasma contains various proteins, including clotting factors, that help in the formation of blood clots to prevent excessive bleeding. Serum, on the other hand, is the liquid left after blood has clotted and does not contain clotting factors. Clotting factors are not present in skeletal muscles. Therefore, the correct answer is plasma.

    Breakdown of glycogen is :

    • Glycogenolysis

    • Glycogenesis

    • Glycolysis

    • Gluconeogenesis

    Correct Answer
    A. Glycogenolysis
    Explanation
    Glycogenolysis refers to the breakdown of glycogen, which is a storage form of glucose in the body. During glycogenolysis, glycogen is broken down into glucose molecules, which can then be used as a source of energy by the body. This process is important in maintaining blood sugar levels and providing energy during times of fasting or intense physical activity. Glycogenesis, on the other hand, is the synthesis of glycogen from glucose, while glycolysis is the breakdown of glucose for energy production, and gluconeogenesis is the production of glucose from non-carbohydrate sources.

    All of the following are functions of IGF-1 Except :

    • Has insulin like action and growth promoting action

    • Stimulates amino acid uptake which is needed for protein synthesis

    • Progression of cells from the resting phase into active cell division

    • All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. All of the above
    Explanation
    IGF-1, or insulin-like growth factor 1, has multiple functions in the body. It has insulin-like action and growth-promoting action, meaning it helps regulate blood sugar levels and promotes growth and development. It also stimulates amino acid uptake, which is necessary for protein synthesis. However, IGF-1 does not directly cause the progression of cells from the resting phase into active cell division. Therefore, the correct answer is "All of the above" because all the other options are functions of IGF-1.

    Protein Utilization Phase have all of the following except :

    • 5-7 days

    • Increasing utilization of fat and ketones for energy

    • He body starts using it’s energy and protein stores

    • All of the following

    Correct Answer
    A. Increasing utilization of fat and ketones for energy
    Explanation
    The Protein Utilization Phase is a stage during fasting or starvation where the body starts using its energy and protein stores. This means that the body relies on breaking down muscle tissue and other protein sources for energy. However, during this phase, the body does not increase the utilization of fat and ketones for energy. Fat and ketones are typically utilized more during the initial stages of fasting or in a state of ketosis. Therefore, the correct answer is "increasing utilization of fat and ketones for energy."

    If Tamer has open wound 9% and his weight is 72Kg, calculate the Nitrogen lose 

    • 1.44g

    • 1.55g

    • 1.66g

    • 1.77g

    Correct Answer
    A. 1.44g
    Explanation
    The nitrogen loss can be calculated using the formula: Nitrogen loss = open wound percentage * weight in kg. In this case, Tamer has an open wound of 9% and weighs 72kg. Therefore, the nitrogen loss would be 9% * 72kg = 6.48kg. However, the answer choices are given in grams, so we need to convert the nitrogen loss from kg to grams. 1kg is equal to 1000g, so 6.48kg is equal to 6.48 * 1000g = 6480g. Therefore, the correct answer is 1.44g, as it is the closest option to 6480g when rounded to two decimal places.
