The peripheral blood smear of a patient shows features of thalassemia, also presented with anemia. Family history is also +ve. The investigation was done to establish the diagnosis is -
1) ESR estimation
2) Blood spherocyte estimation
3) Bone marrow aspiration
4) Hb-electrophoresis
General Pathology
Answer: 4
Hb-electrophoresis is the investigation done to establish the diagnosis of thalassemia, as it separates different hemoglobin types based on their charge.

What is a common symptom of low serum calcium levels?
1) Hypertension
2) Tetany
3) Hyperphosphatemia
4) Anemia
Tetany is a common symptom of low serum calcium levels, characterized by muscle cramps and spasms due to increased neuromuscular excitability.
The minimum distance and angle between the X-ray source and operator should be at least
1. 6 feet, 45 degree
2. 6 feet, 135 degree
3. 9 feet, 90 degree
4. 9 feet, 120 degree
Oral Pathology
Answer: 2
The minimum distance should be 6 feet at a 135-degree angle for safety.
Speed at which electron travel in gas tube once released from cathode filament is dependent on
1. Potential difference between electrodes
2. Angle between filament and anoxic target
3. Amount of kilovoltage applied to the circuit
4. Intensity of current applied to target
Oral Pathology
Answer: 1
The speed at which electrons travel in a gas tube is primarily dependent on the potential difference between electrodes.
