Explanation / Answer

9. ans : C) Palmar Interossei

Explanation: Only palmar interossei muscle adducts fingers at metacarpophalangeal joints, all other muscle like lumbricals ( flexes digits at metacarpoplalangeal joint), dorsal interossei ( abducts fingers ) and in case of thumb, adductor pollicis brevis play role in digit adduction.

10. ans: B) Brachioradialis

Though brachioradialis is seen from anterior surface of forearm it is a muscle of pposterior compartment of hand, innervated by radial muscle, so named brachioradialis.

11. ans: B) A ( hinner wall )& B ( valves to ensure one way flow)

Veins are thinner than artery as they have thinner muscularis layer than artery. Veins have valve to ensure one way flow towards the vena cava.

12. ans : C) brachiocephalic vein

Right and left brachiocephalic vein combines to for superior vena cava, so both brachiocephalic veins are deep veins. Whereas cephalic vein can be accessed in lateral aspect anterior surface of forearm for venous access, basilic vein can be accessed in the medial aspect of forearm for IV line, lesser saphenous vein can be accessed in the lateral aspect of leg.

13. Ans: B) gonadal artery in females

Explanation: in females ovarian artery is known as gonadal artery, as you know ovaries are situated in abdomen, so it is obvious that ovarian artery does not pass through inguinal canal.

14. ans: C) anterior cruciate ligament

As anterior cruciate ligament is inserted into the anterior aspect of tibia, any impact injury from front of the leg will cause injury to anterior cruciate ligament commonly than other ligament.

15. ans : C) External rotation of hip

Obturator nerve supplies the external obturator muscle which is a external rotator of hip joint, so in injury of obturator nerve, external rotation of hip will be affected. { other muscle supplied by obturator nrves are adductor longus, adductor brevis, adductor magnus, gracilis}.

16. ans : B) Deep fibular (peroneal) nerve

Deep fibular nerve passes through anterior compartment of leg not lateral compartment of leg, it originates at bifurcation of common peroneal nerve and then go along the lateral border of anterior aspect of tibia.

17. ans : B) False

Biceps femoris is a composite muscle it has two heads. short head is supplied by common peroneal nerve of sciatic nerve [ root value L5, S2], and long head by tibial branch of sciatic nerve [ root value L5, S1 ,S2], so it is not supplied by S3 at all.
