5. Which of the following is the outermost covering layer of the meninges?
a)
Subarachnoid mater
b)
Dura mater
c)
Arachnoid mater
d)
Pia mater
Answer:
Dura mater
Explanation:
Option-2 (Dura mater): This is the correct answer because it is the thickest, toughest, and outermost layer of the meninges. It sits directly beneath the skull bone to act as a heavy-duty protective shield for the brain and spinal cord
6. What is the normal, healthy color of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)?
a)
Bright red
b)
Milky white
c)
Clear and colorless
d)
Straw-yellow
Answer:
Clear and colorless
Explanation:
✅ Clear and colorless: Normal CSF looks exactly like clear water. Any deviation indicates a medical issue.
❌ Straw-yellow: This color (xanthochromia) is abnormal. It usually means there is old blood breakdown from a past brain bleed or very high protein levels.
❌ Milky white: A cloudy or milky appearance is abnormal. It indicates an active bacterial infection (meningitis) due to the presence of pus and white blood cells.
❌ Bright red: A red or pink tint is abnormal. It signals fresh bleeding in the brain space (like a subarachnoid hemorrhage) or a nicked blood vessel during the spinal tap procedure.
7. Which lobe of the brain contains the primary visual cortex (visual center)?
a)
Frontal lobe
b)
Parietal lobe
c)
Temporal lobe
d)
Occipital lobe
Answer:
Occipital lobe
Explanation:
✅ Occipital lobe: Located at the very back of the brain. It houses the primary visual cortex, which processes images, color, shape, and recognition from the eyes.
❌ Frontal lobe: Located at the front. It handles decision-making, reasoning, motor control, and expressive language, not vision.
❌ Parietal lobe: Located at the top-middle. It processes sensory information like touch, pressure, spatial awareness, and temperature.
❌ Temporal lobe: Located at the sides (near ears). It manages hearing, memory, and language comprehension.
8. Which gland secrets Epinephrine?

Answer:
Adrenal Medulla
9. A 62-year-old patient with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) presents with confusion, lethargy, and a bounding pulse. An arterial blood gas (ABG) analysis confirms severe hypercapnia. Which of the following physiological changes occurs as a direct compensatory response to this acute state?
a)
Intracellular shift of potassium ions causing acute hypokalemia
b)
Rightward shift of the oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve (Bohr effect)
c)
Renal excretion of bicarbonate (HCO₃⁻) ions within minutes
d)
Decreased minute ventilation via peripheral chemoreceptor inhibition
Answer:
Rightward shift of the oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve (Bohr effect)
Explanation:
Rightward shift of the oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve: Hypercapnia increases blood carbon dioxide (CO₂), which lowers pH (acidosis). This high CO₂ and hydrogen ion concentration binds to hemoglobin, decreasing its oxygen affinity and shifting the curve to the right to help unload oxygen to tissues.
10. Which part of digestive system makes/produces vit-k & vitB12
a)
Duodenum
b)
Large intestine
c)
Small intestine
d)

11. Bile is necessary for the absorption of-
a)
Vit-k
b)
Vit-B12
c)
Fats and fat soluble vitamins
d)
a & C
Answer:
a & C
Explanation:
✅ B) Fats and fat-soluble vitamins: Bile acts like a soap or detergent. It breaks down large fat droplets into tiny droplets (emulsification). This allows the body to absorb fats and fat-soluble vitamins (Vitamins A, D, E, and K).
