Propolis Cognitive Error Autopsy

Official Correct Choice:
Option D: 0.08%
Concept:

Blood glucose levels are strictly hormonally regulated to prevent osmotic shock and diabetic comas.

Solution:

  • The normal, healthy homeostatic concentration of fasting glucose in human blood is rigorously maintained between 80 to 120 mg per 100 mL of blood (dL).


  • Mathematically, 80 mg (0.08 grams) per 100 mL of water (roughly 100 grams) equals exactly 0.08% by weight/volume.


  • This tiny, highly regulated percentage provides constant energy without turning the blood into a thick, syrupy osmotic nightmare.


Why other options are incorrect:

  • Options like 8% or 1.8% would represent blood so thick with sugar it would immediately pull all water out of the brain cells via osmosis, causing instant death.

Quality & Fidelity Assurance: Every question on BeambePrep is rigorously curated against the official PMDC syllabus with zero filler, zero out-of-syllabus content, and zero typos. When an authentic past paper originally contained a historical mistake or ambiguity from the examining board (such as UHS or NUMS), BeambePrep faithfully reflects the original paper while detailing the nuance and scientific consensus in the autopsy above.
