| List-I | List-II | ||
| A. | Vertebrochondral Ribs | I. | IIum , Ischium Pubis |
| B. | Floating Ribs | II. | \(8^{\text {th }}, 9^{\text {th }} \text {and} ~10^{\text {th }} \text{Pairs}\) |
| C. | Scapula | III. | Acromion |
| D. | Coxal Bone | IV. | \(11^{\text {th }} \text{and} ~12^{\text {th }}~ \text {Pairs}\) |
1. A-I, B-III, C-II, D-IV
2. A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I
3. A-II, B-IV, C-III, D-I
4. A-I, B-IV, C-II, D-III
Vertebrochondral ribs attach to the seventh rib with the help of:
1. Elastic cartilage
2. Hyaline cartilage
3. Fibrous cartilage
4. White fibrous tissue
Reason (R): They do not have any connection with the sternum ventrally.
1. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is true, but (R) is false.
4. (A) is false, but (R) is true.
In human body, which one of the following is anatomically correct ?
1. Floating ribs-2 pairs
2. Collar bones-3 pairs
3. Salivary glands-1 pair
4. Cranial nerves-10 pairs
Out of ‘X’ pairs of ribs in humans, only ‘Y’ pairs are true ribs. Select the option that correctly represents values of X and Y and provides their explanation:
| X | Y | |
| 1. | 12 | 15 true ribs are attached dorsally to the vertebral column and sternum on the two ends |
| 2. | 24 | 7 true ribs are dorsally attached to the vertebral column but are free on the ventral side |
| 3. | 24 | 12 true ribs are dorsally attached to the vertebral column but are free on the ventral side |
| 4. | 12 | 7 true ribs are attached dorsally to the vertebral column and ventrally to the sternum |
| 1. | 7 pairs true ribs, 3 pairs false ribs, 2 pairs floating ribs |
| 2. | 8 pairs true ribs, 2 pairs false ribs, 2 pairs floating ribs |
| 3. | 7 pairs true ribs, 4 pairs false ribs, 1 pair floating ribs |
| 4. | 6 pairs true ribs, 4 pairs false ribs, 2 pairs floating ribs |
In rib case, which of the following set of ribs
remain attached to each other?
(1) 2nd, 3rd and 4th pairs of the ribs
(2) 4th, 5th and 6th pairs of the ribs
(3) 7th, 8th and 9th pairs of the ribs
(4) 8th, 9th and 10th pairs of the ribs
1. They articulate only with the sternum
2. They are connected to both the vertebrae and scapula
3. They have a dual blood supply
4. They have two articulation surfaces at the dorsal end
