Which of the following are Autoimmune disorders?
A. Myasthenia gravis
B. Rheumatoid arthritis
C. Gout
D. Muscular dystrophy
E. Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE)
Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
A. Myasthenia gravis
B. Rheumatoid arthritis
C. Gout
D. Muscular dystrophy
E. Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE)
Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
- A, B & D only
- A, B & E only
- B, C & E only
- C, D & E only
The Correct Option is B
Approach Solution - 1
To determine which of the given options are autoimmune disorders, let's explore each condition:
- Myasthenia gravis: It is an autoimmune disorder where antibodies block or destroy muscle receptor sites, leading to muscle weakness.
- Rheumatoid arthritis: This is an autoimmune condition in which the immune system attacks the synovium (lining of the membranes that surround the joints), causing inflammation and joint damage.
- Gout: This condition is caused by the accumulation of urate crystals in the joints due to high levels of uric acid. It is not an autoimmune disease.
- Muscular dystrophy: A group of genetic diseases causing muscle weakness, not autoimmune in nature.
- Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE): This is a chronic autoimmune disease affecting multiple systems of the body, leading to inflammation and tissue damage.
Based on this information, the autoimmune disorders among the options are:
- A. Myasthenia gravis
- B. Rheumatoid arthritis
- E. Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE)
Thus, the correct answer is: A, B & E only.
Approach Solution -2
Myasthenia gravis, Rheumatoid arthritis, and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) are all autoimmune disorders, where the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues.
Gout is not an autoimmune disorder; it is caused by the accumulation of uric acid crystals.
Muscular dystrophy is a genetic disorder, not autoimmune.
Thus, the correct answer is (2) A, B, E only.

Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow. Prevention is the frontline response to drug use. Effective interventions address the underlying conditions contributing to drug use, such as a lack of connection to family or community, instability, insecurity, trauma, mental health issues, etc. When addressed, these factors can effectively prevent the initiation of drug use and the progression to drug use disorders. Study the few key figures of drug use given below and answer the questions that follow.
(a) What do you infer from the figures in Table No. 1 about the people with drug use disorders, 2022 (in million)? State any two of your observations.

- In the life cycle of a {Plasmodium, once the sporozoite enters the blood of the host, it invades the hepatic portal system, resulting in occurrence of change in the host body, leading to malaria
A. Sporozoite enters the hepatocytes and divides by schizogony leading to formation of cryptomerozoites
B. Inside RBCs, the micro-metacryptozoites become rounded and modify into a young trophozoites.
C. As the trophozoite grows in size, a central vacuole is developed so that the nucleus is pushed to one side into the peripheral cytoplasm, leading to amoeboid stage.
D. In Amoeboid stage the small red eosinophils granules appear in the cytoplasm of the host corpulses as Schuffner's granules}
