  3. Vena cava

  4. None of these

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Answer is option B i.e."Internal iliac vein"
The internal iliac vein drains blood from the visceral organs in the pelvic region. The internal iliac vein may double all these veins and tributaries join together to form the inferior vena cava.

  1. Genetically identical.

  2. Genetically dissimilar.

  3. Belongs to same species.

  4. None of the above.

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Isograft is a tissue or organ transplanted from a donor to a recipient who are identical or monozygotic twins. In an isograft transplantation the chances of rejection are near to nil with identical MHCs as they are genetically identical.

So, the correct answer is 'Genetically identical.'

Which of the following cell-surface proteins encoded by HLA is estimated before the transplant before rejection?

  1. Immunoglobulins

  2. MHC

  3. APC

  1. Autograft.

  2. Xenograft.

  3. Isograft.

  4. All of the above.

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Monkey and humans have evolved into two distinct lineages and are distinct species and therefore have a dissimilar genetic composition. Any transplant between these two organisms is known as a xenograft. Which may be rejected vigorously due to greater than required MHC incompatibility.

So, the correct answer is 'Xenograft'


Which of the following type of donor is rejected during kidney transplant?

  1. Autograft

  2. Isograft

  3. Allograft

  4. None of the above

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Allograft is a tissue or organ transplanted from a donor to recipient of the same species but is genetically different and therefore may face rejection during kidney transplant due to distinct HLA proteins

So, the correct answer is 'Allograft'

The highest genetic variation is seen in which of the following type of the donor for a kidney transplant?

  1. Autograft

  2. Xenograft

  2. stone is formed in kidney

  3. infection occurs in the pelvis region

  4. urea accumulates in the blood

Show answer
Correct Option: B
