Question
Which of the following diseases is/are correctly matched to its pathogenesis?W. Osteoarthritis - chronic inflammation and hypersensitivity reactionsX.

Osteomalacia - bones are poorly mineralized and soft.Question 15Select one:a.if only W, X and Y are correctb.if only W and Y are correctc.if only X and Z are correctd.if only Z is correcte.if all are correct
Solution
The correct answer is c. if only X and Z are correct.
Here's why:
W. Osteoarthritis - This is incorrect. Osteoarthritis is characterized by the breakdown of joint cartilage, not chronic inflammation and hypersensitivity reactions.
X. Rickets - This is correct. Rickets is a disease in children caused by vitamin D deficiency, which leads to soft and poorly mineralized bones.
Y. Rheumatoid Arthritis - This is incorrect. Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic inflammatory disorder affecting many joints, including those in the hands and feet. However, it is typically symmetrical, affecting the same joints on both sides of the body.
Z. Osteomalacia - This is correct. Osteomalacia refers to a softening of the bones, often caused by a vitamin D deficiency, leading to bones being poorly mineralized and soft.
