Explanation:
Explanation:
a) Stage I NREM
b) Stage II NREM
c) Stage III NREM
d) REM
Ans – d. REM
Explanation:
Sawtooth waves corresponding to eye movements are seen during REM sleep
Sleep is subdivided into two phases. They are,
1. Non Rapid Eye Movement (NREM) Sleep
2. Rapid Eye Movement (REM) Sleep
PGO spikes
Called as pontogeniculo-occipital (PGO) spikes
These large phasic potentials are highly characteristic of REM sleep
Physiological changes during REM sleep
Muscle atonia
Due to the inhibition of the spinal motor neurons by descending pathways
Muscles that doesn’t undergo atonia during REM sleep are extraocular muscles and
diaphragm
Accompanied by increases in blood pressure, heart rate, and metabolism
Spontaneous penile erection in men
Women experience sexual arousal
a) Growth hormone
b) Cortisol
c) Estrogen
d) Insulin
Ans – a. Growth hormone
Explanation:
Factors that increase growth hormone secretion Factors that inhibit growth hormone secretion
1. The most potent factor that increases 1. Infusion of glucose
growth hormone secretion is Hypoglycemia This is useful in diagnosis of
Growth hormone is a acromegaly
“diabetogenic hormone”. It Normally glucose infusion
increses blood glucose levels suppresses growth hormone (GH)
2. Other conditions that causes hypoglycemia secretion
like Failure of GH suppression to <0.4
Stress μg/L within 1–2 h of an oral
Fasting glucose load (75 g) is a definitive
Exercise diagnostic test for acromegaly
3. During sleep – Particularly deep sleep 2. Insulin like growth factor -1 (IGF-1)
(NREM stage 3 &4) 3. Cortisol
4. Glucagon 4. Free fatty acids
Response to glucagon is an useful 5. β adrenergic agonists
test to find out growth hormone 6. Normal REM sleep
reserve
5. Protein rich meal that increses circulating
levels of amino acids
Growth hormone has an anabolic
effect on the protein metabolism. It
increses the rate of amino acid
uptake into cell
6. Person in whom REM sleep is deprived
7. Hormones that increase growth hormone
secretion are,
Vasopressin
Androgen
Estrogen
Dopamine agonists
Thyroid hormones
α adrenergic agonists
5. Feed forward control system is employed during the regulation of
a) Blood volume
b) pH
c) Temperature
d) Blood pressure
Ans – c. temperature
Explanation:
There is a control system in our body when no stimulus is required but still the system
ANTICIPATES and makes corrective changes. Such a system is called Feed forward or
Anticipatory or Adaptive Control
a) Decrease in GFR
b) Decreases renal blood flow
c) Decreases oncotic pressure in peritubular capillaries
d) Increases hydrostatic pressure in glomerular capillaries
Explanation:
7. Difference in trajectory between inspiratory loop and the expiratory loop in the curve is due
to
Explanation:
Explanation:
“Zonula occludens is the other name for tight junction. It is absent in cardiac muscle”
Gap Gap junctions permits substances to pass between the cells without entering the
Junctions extracellular fluid (ECF)
Gap junctions are composed entirely of an integral membrane protein called
connexons
Each connexon is made up of six protein subunits called connexins
Gap junctions are abundant in cardiac muscles which are called as intercalated
discs. It is because of this,cardiac muscle functions as single unit called as
functional syncytium
Gap junctions are also seen in single unit smooth muscles seen in visceral organs
Mutations in connexin leads to many human diseases namely,
Explanation:
Corresponding to the period from the time the firing level is reached until repolarization is about
one-third complete.
No stimulus, no matter how strong, will not excite the nerve during absolute refractory period
Cause - inactivation gates of the Na+ channel are closed when the membrane potential is
depolarized. They remain closed until repolarization occurs. No action potential can occur until
the inactivation gates open
Begins from the remaining part of repolarization to the end of action potential
Stronger than normal stimulus(suprathreshold stimulus) produces action potential in relative
refractory period
Cause - The K+ conductance is higher than at rest, and the membrane potential is closer to the
K+ equilibrium potential and, therefore, farther from threshold; more inward current is required
to bring the membrane to threshold
10. X,Y,Z are the three ions permeable. X = -50 and Y = -30. If at RMP, when there is no net electro
genic transfer, what is the value of Z?
a) +20
b) -20
c) +80
d) -80
Answer – c. +80
Explanation:
11. Which group of nerve fibers are least susceptible to local anesthetics
a) A alpha
b) A beta
c) B
d) C
Answer – d. C fibers
