Which of the following is NOT a germ layer in an embryo?

  1. Ectoderm

  2. Mesoderm

  3. Endoderm

  4. Neuroderm


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Neuroderm is not a germ layer, but rather a specialized region of the ectoderm that gives rise to the nervous system.

The process by which a fertilized egg develops into a mature organism is called:

  1. Embryogenesis

  2. Morphogenesis

  3. Differentiation

  4. Organogenesis


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Embryogenesis encompasses all the processes involved in the development of an embryo from a fertilized egg to a mature organism.

Which of the following is NOT a type of stem cell?

  1. Embryonic stem cells

  2. Adult stem cells

  3. Induced pluripotent stem cells

  4. Mesenchymal stem cells


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Mesenchymal stem cells are not stem cells, but rather a type of multipotent stromal cell.

The process by which cells become specialized in structure and function is called:

  1. Differentiation

  2. Morphogenesis

  3. Organogenesis

  4. Histogenesis


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Differentiation is the process by which cells become specialized in structure and function.

The formation of organs from tissues is called:

  1. Organogenesis

  2. Histogenesis

  3. Morphogenesis

  4. Embryogenesis


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Organogenesis is the process by which organs are formed from tissues.

Which of the following is NOT a type of biomaterial?

  1. Metals

  2. Ceramics

  3. Polymers

  4. Natural materials


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Natural materials are not biomaterials, as they are not specifically designed for use in medical applications.

The process of using engineering principles to design and build biological systems is called:

  1. Bioengineering

  2. Genetic engineering

  3. Tissue engineering

  4. Biotechnology


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Bioengineering is the process of using engineering principles to design and build biological systems.

Which of the following is NOT a type of tissue engineering?

  1. Scaffold-based tissue engineering

  2. Cell-based tissue engineering

  3. Organ printing

  4. Gene therapy


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Gene therapy is not a type of tissue engineering, as it does not involve the engineering of tissues.

The process of using cells to repair or replace damaged tissues is called:

  1. Cell therapy

  2. Tissue engineering

  3. Stem cell therapy

  4. Gene therapy


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Cell therapy is the process of using cells to repair or replace damaged tissues.

Which of the following is NOT a type of stem cell therapy?

  1. Autologous stem cell therapy

  2. Allogeneic stem cell therapy

  3. Xenogeneic stem cell therapy

  4. Gene therapy


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Gene therapy is not a type of stem cell therapy, as it does not involve the use of stem cells.

The process of using biomaterials to repair or replace damaged tissues is called:

  1. Biomaterial-based tissue engineering

  2. Tissue engineering

  3. Cell therapy

  4. Gene therapy


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Biomaterial-based tissue engineering is the process of using biomaterials to repair or replace damaged tissues.

Which of the following is NOT a type of biomaterial-based tissue engineering?

  1. Scaffold-based tissue engineering

  2. Cell-based tissue engineering

  3. Organ printing

  4. Gene therapy


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Gene therapy is not a type of biomaterial-based tissue engineering, as it does not involve the use of biomaterials.

The process of using 3D printing to create tissues and organs is called:

  1. Organ printing

  2. Tissue engineering

  3. Cell therapy

  4. Gene therapy


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Organ printing is the process of using 3D printing to create tissues and organs.

Which of the following is NOT a type of organ printing?

  1. Scaffold-based organ printing

  2. Cell-based organ printing

  3. Decellularized organ printing

  4. Gene therapy


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Gene therapy is not a type of organ printing, as it does not involve the use of 3D printing.

The process of using genetic engineering to modify an organism's DNA is called:

  1. Genetic engineering

  2. Gene therapy

  3. Tissue engineering

  4. Bioengineering


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Genetic engineering is the process of using genetic engineering to modify an organism's DNA.
