Sample MCQ #2

What is the correct sequence of stem cell potency based on their ability to differentiate?

APluripotent > Totipotent > Multipotent> Oligopotent > Unipotent
BTotipotent > Pluripotent > Multipotent> Oligopotent > Unipotent
CTotipotent > Pluripotent > Oligopotent > Multipotent > Unipotent
DPluripotent > Totipotent > Oligopotent > Multipotent > Unipotent
Show Answer & Explanation ▾
✓ Correct Answer: B. Totipotent > Pluripotent > Multipotent> Oligopotent > Unipotent

The correct order of arrangement of stem cells, based on their potency to differentiate into different cells (highest to lowest) is totipotent > pluripotent > multipotent > oligopotent > unipotent. Reference - Textbook of Langman's, 12th Edition, General Embryology Page number - 32

Sample MCQ #3

Tadpole cells comma shaped cells on histopathology are seen in -

ATrichoepithelioma
BSpideroma
CRhabdomyosarcoma
DHistiocytoma
Show Answer & Explanation ▾
✓ Correct Answer: C. Rhabdomyosarcoma

Ans. is 'c' i.e., Rhabdomyosarcoma Histology of rhabdomvosarcoma The diagnostic cell of rhabdomyosarcoma is rhabdomyoblast. Rhabdomyoblast contains eccentric eosinophilic granular cytoplasm rich in thick and thin filaments. o The rhabdomyoblasts may be ? i) Round Elongated Tadpole or Strap cells. It has three variants ii) Embryonal Alveolar iii) Pleomorphic Rhabdomyoblasts are positive for desmin, MYOD1 and Myogenin.

Sample MCQ #4

Lining layer of fallopian tubes, bronchi and bronchioles consists of

AColumnar epithelium
BCiliated epithelium
CCubical epithelium
DSquamous epithelium
Show Answer & Explanation ▾
✓ Correct Answer: B. Ciliated epithelium

Ciliated epithelium is a thin tissue that has hair-like structures on it. These hairs, called cilia, move back and forth to help move particles out of our body. Ciliated epithelial tissue are found in the respiratory tract and in the fallopian tubes of women.
