A

genetic disorder of ectopic bone formation – mutation encoding BMP type I receptor causing endochondral ossification in skeletal muscle, tendons, ligaments triggered by trauma

318
Q

mesenchymal stem cells give rise to four types of cells. what are they?

A
  1. chondrocytes
  2. osteoblasts
  3. myoblasts
  4. adipocytes
319
Q

IgG

A

binds to macrophages and neutrophils to activate phagocytosis and complement cytotoxic response

320
Q

stereocilia

A

long non-motile apical specialization (structurally similar to microvilli) that faciltate absorption

in ear, very sensitive to mechanical vibrations

321
Q

paramer

A

fixed characteristic of a given population

322
Q

complement system

A

part of innate immunity

fixing antibodies to pathogens - 20 plasma proteins made by the liver that circulate in the plasma. faciliate lysis of bacteria, oposnization, and bringing phagocytes to site of reaction

323
Q

incidence

A

number of new cases of disease that occur in a specific time in population at risk of developing the disease =(number of new cases)/ number of persons at risk

324
Q

what type of cells make tartrate resistant acid phosphatases (TRAP)?

A

osteoclasts

325
Q

p value

A

measures how consistent data are with null compared to alternative; smaller p value = stronger evidence against null in favor of alternative. measures actual probability of detecting a difference if the groups are the same

326
Q

what type of connective tissue is loosely arranged, contains tons of cells/ground substance and fewer fibers?

A

loose CT

327
Q

-stigmine

A

AchE inhibitors - increase Ach receptors at NMJ endplates to increase strength of contractions

328
Q

reticular fibers cotains type ___ collagen

A

III

329
Q

osteomalacia/rickets

A

defective vitamin D intake/metabolism

330
Q

edrophonium

A

AchE inhibitor that transiently reverses MG symptoms; useful diagnostic tool to see cholingeric crisis if being overtreated, edro can’t fix if being undertreated, will reverse muscle weakness

331
Q

The einstein relationship

A

the displacement of a molecule is a function of time.

  1. the distance is nonlinear
  2. doubling time doesnt double distance, only increases by sq root of 2

means that diffusion is fast over short distances

332
Q

1

A

capsule

333
Q

Yellow arrow is pointing to

A

serous cell

in the salivary gland, secretes watery/thin fluid (as opposed to mucous cell)

334
