    Stylopharyngues muscle nerve supply

    Explanation
    The stylopharyngeus muscle is innervated by the glossopharyngeal nerve. This nerve originates from the brainstem and provides motor innervation to the stylopharyngeus muscle, which is responsible for elevating the pharynx during swallowing and speaking. The glossopharyngeal nerve also carries sensory information from the back of the throat and the taste buds located on the posterior third of the tongue. Therefore, the glossopharyngeal nerve is the correct answer for the nerve supply of the stylopharyngeus muscle.

    Mammary glands drains in to ______ lymph node

    Explanation
    Mammary glands drain into the axillary lymph node. The axillary lymph node is located in the armpit region and is responsible for receiving lymphatic drainage from the breast. This lymph node plays a crucial role in filtering and removing waste products, toxins, and potentially harmful substances from the breast tissue. Therefore, the axillary lymph node is the correct answer as it is directly associated with the drainage of mammary glands.

    Zymogenic cells secretes

    Explanation
    Zymogenic cells secrete pepsinogen. Pepsinogen is an inactive form of the enzyme pepsin, which is responsible for breaking down proteins in the stomach. When pepsinogen comes into contact with the acidic environment of the stomach, it is converted into pepsin, which can then carry out its digestive function. This secretion of pepsinogen by zymogenic cells is an important step in the digestion process, as it ensures that pepsin is only activated when it reaches the stomach and not prematurely in the cells themselves.

During bruxism, excessive force is exerted on the teeth, causing them to grind or clench together. The masseter muscle, being responsible for closing the jaw, plays a significant role in this process.

    Which cranial nerve has visceral sensory innervation ?

    Correct Answer
    Vagus nerve
    Explanation
    The vagus nerve is the cranial nerve that has visceral sensory innervation. It is responsible for providing sensory information from the internal organs, such as the heart, lungs, and digestive system, to the brain. This allows the brain to monitor and regulate various physiological processes, such as heart rate, breathing, and digestion. The vagus nerve plays a crucial role in maintaining homeostasis within the body and is involved in many autonomic functions.

    Rate this question:

  • 23. 

    Otitis media caused by which micro-organism

    Correct Answer
    Streptococcus pneumonia
    Explanation
    Otitis media is an infection of the middle ear, and Streptococcus pneumoniae is a common microorganism that can cause this condition. This bacterium is a leading cause of bacterial pneumonia, as well as other respiratory infections. In the case of otitis media, Streptococcus pneumoniae can infect the middle ear, leading to symptoms such as ear pain, fever, and fluid buildup. Treatment typically involves antibiotics to target the bacteria and relieve symptoms.

    • Stylopharyngeus

    Correct Answer
    A. Palatoglossus
    Explanation
    The palatoglossus muscle is located anterior to the palatine tonsil. It is one of the muscles that make up the soft palate and is responsible for elevating the back of the tongue and depressing the soft palate. This muscle plays a role in swallowing and speech production.

    Rate this question:

  • 25. 

    With age, the volume of pulp decreases because of?

    • Decrease collagen fibers

    • Formation of secondary dentin

    • Increase cellularity

    • Decrease vascularity

    Correct Answer
    A. Formation of secondary dentin
    Explanation
    As a person ages, the volume of pulp in their teeth decreases due to the formation of secondary dentin. Secondary dentin is a protective layer of dentin that forms on the inner surface of the tooth in response to various factors such as tooth wear, trauma, or decay. This formation of secondary dentin reduces the size of the pulp chamber and therefore decreases the volume of pulp in the tooth.

  • 27. 

    Dentinogenesis and amelogenesis imperfecta occur during _____ stage

    • Initiation

    • Bud stage

    • Cap stage

    • Bell stage

    Correct Answer
    A. Bell stage
    Explanation
    During the bell stage of tooth development, dentinogenesis and amelogenesis imperfecta occur. The bell stage is the third stage of tooth development, following the initiation, bud, and cap stages. In this stage, the tooth germ takes on a bell-like shape, and the cells differentiate into the different types of cells that make up the tooth, including odontoblasts (which form dentin) and ameloblasts (which form enamel). Therefore, the correct answer is the bell stage.

    Rate this question:

  • 28. 

    Heavy smoker with dysphagia and dysphonia

    • Oral cancer

    • Lung cancer

    • GERD

    • Cancer of larynx

    • Rectal cancer

    Correct Answer
    A. Cancer of larynx
    Explanation
    The symptoms of dysphagia (difficulty swallowing) and dysphonia (hoarse voice) are highly suggestive of a problem in the larynx, which is the area responsible for producing sound and helping with swallowing. Cancer of the larynx is a common cause of these symptoms in heavy smokers. Therefore, it is the most likely explanation for the patient's symptoms. Oral cancer, lung cancer, GERD, and rectal cancer are not typically associated with dysphagia and dysphonia.

    Electrical synapse common in?

    • Cardiac muscle

    • Smooth muscle

    • Skeletal muscle

    • Cardiac and Smooth muscle

    Correct Answer
    A. Cardiac and Smooth muscle
    Explanation
    Electrical synapses are specialized connections between cells that allow for the direct transfer of electrical signals. These synapses are found in both cardiac and smooth muscle. In cardiac muscle, electrical synapses play a crucial role in coordinating the contraction of individual cells, ensuring the synchronized pumping of the heart. In smooth muscle, electrical synapses facilitate the coordinated contraction of cells in organs such as the digestive system and blood vessels. Therefore, the correct answer is Cardiac and Smooth muscle.

    Artery found between hypoglossus and genioglossus 

    Correct Answer
    Lingual artery
    Explanation
    The artery found between the hypoglossus and genioglossus is called the lingual artery. This artery supplies blood to the tongue, and it runs deep within the tongue muscles. It branches off from the external carotid artery, which is a major supplier of blood to the head and neck region. The lingual artery plays a crucial role in providing oxygenated blood to the tongue and is involved in various functions such as taste sensation and speech.

    After thyroid surgery, pt cannot speak, which nerve?

    • Superior laryngeal nerve

    • Vagus nerve

    • Recurrent laryngeal nerve

    • Hypoglossal nerve

    • Cervical nerve

    Correct Answer
    A. Recurrent laryngeal nerve
    Explanation
    After thyroid surgery, the patient may experience difficulty speaking due to damage to the recurrent laryngeal nerve. This nerve innervates the muscles of the larynx, including the vocal cords, which are essential for normal speech production. Damage to the recurrent laryngeal nerve can lead to paralysis or weakness of these muscles, resulting in hoarseness or loss of voice. The superior laryngeal nerve also plays a role in vocal cord function, but it is less likely to be affected during thyroid surgery. The vagus nerve, hypoglossal nerve, and cervical nerves are not directly involved in vocal cord function and would not explain the patient's inability to speak.
