NBME 28 Exam Questions and
Answers 100% PASS
Which sensory information is compromised by the anterior lobe of the superior
cerebellum?—ANSWER-unconscious proprioception
What controls conscious proprioception?—ANSWER-DCML
Lesion in this part of the cerebellum can cause broad based ataxia—ANSWER-anterior lobe
Conscious proprioception, 2 point discrimination and _______ is also mediated by the
DMCL—ANSWER-vibration sense
Synthesis of enzymes necessary for replication of genome occurs in which phase of the cell
cycle?—ANSWER-G1 (because DNA gets duplicated after in S phase)
Does proteins synthesis occur in M phase?—ANSWER-no
This is the phase of cell where DNA replication occurs—ANSWER-S phase
This is the phase where integrity of duplicated genome is checked and corrected.—ANSWER-
G2
G2 phase is also where phase of growth and ________ synthesis takes place in preparation
for the phases of mitosis and cell division—ANSWER-protein
, When looking at a serum [PAH] vs. PAH secretion rate graph, there is an inflection point
where secretion rate plateaus, which means the clearance of PAH does not increase (slope
0).
Before this inflection point, the clearance of PAH is higher (slope >0).
This means that on the plateau area, PAH clearance is ______ than it is in the ascending
area.—ANSWER-lower
What sequence encods the polyadenylation signal?—ANSWER-AATAAA
Where do splice sites exist?—ANSWER-At the end of an intron and beginning of an exon
Mutations in the _____ region are known to cause beta thalassemia.—ANSWER-promoter
Capping with GTP occurs at the beginning of trasncription at the ________.—ANSWER-5'
end of the nascent mRNA
Capping with GTP at the 5' end of nascent mRNA is recognized by ______ in cytoplasm and
facilitates initation of translation.—ANSWER-ribosomes
A mutation in GTP cap would result in synthesis of normal mRNA transcript but failure of
_________.—ANSWER-translation
A 5 yr old girl has precocious puberty. Pelvic exam shows a mass consistent with ovarian
tumor. Sstudies show decreased gonadotropins and marked increase in estrogens.
