Glenoid cavity articulates:
1. clavicle with acromion
2. scapula with acromion
3. clavicle with scapula
4. humerus with scapula
The characteristics and an example of a synovial joint in humans are:
| Characteristics | Examples | |
| 1. | Fluid-filled between two joints, provides cushion | Skull Bones |
| 2. | Lymph filled between two bones, limited motion | Gliding joint between carpals |
| 3. | Fluid-filled synovial cavity between two bones | Joint between atlas and axis |
| 4. | Fluid cartilage between two bones, limited motion | Knee joint |
Stimulation of a muscle fiber by a motor neuron occurs at:
1. the neuromuscular junction
2. the transverse tubules
3. the myofibril
4. the sarcoplasmic reticulum
The H-zone in the skeletal muscle fibre is due to:
| 1. | The central gap between myosin filaments in the A-band. |
| 2. | The central gap between actin filaments extends through myosin filaments in the A-band. |
| 3. | Extension of myosin filaments in the central portion of the A-band |
| 4. | The absence of myofibrils in the central portion of the A-band. |
Elbow joint is an example of:
1. Pivot joint
2. Hinge joint
3. Glinding joint
4. ball and socket joint
Which one of the following is the correct matching of three items and their grouping category?
| Items | Group | |
| 1. | Malleus, incus cochlea | Ear ossicles |
| 2. | Ilium, ischium, pubis | Coxal bones of pelvic girdle |
| 3. | Actin, myosin rhodopsin | Muscle proteins |
| 4. | Cytosine, uracil thiamine | pyrimidines |
Which of the following joints would allow no movement?
1. Fibrous joint
2. Cartilaginous joint
3. Synovial joint
4. Ball and socket joint
| 1. | binds to troponin to remove the masking of active sites on actin for myosin. |
| 2. | activates the myosin ATPase by binding to it. |
| 3. | detaches the myosin head from the actin filament. |
| 4. | prevents the formation of bonds between the myosin cross bridges and the actin filament. |
| 1. | junction leading to fatigue |
| 2. | high concentration of ca++ and Na+ |
| 3. | decreased level of oestrogen |
| 4. | accumulation of uric acid leading to inflammation of joints |
| 1. | Aldosterone and Prolactin |
| 2. | Progesterone and Aldosterone |
| 3. | Estrogen and Parathyroid hormone |
| 4. | Parathyroid hormone and Prolactin |
