Propolis Cognitive Error Autopsy

Official Correct Choice:
Option C: Insulin
Concept:

Recombinant bacterial synthesis of pancreatic hormones.

Solution:

Genetically engineered Escherichia coli host cells carrying human cDNA sequences synthesize functional recombinant human insulin (Humulin) to regulate blood glucose levels in diabetic patients.

Why other options are incorrect:

  • Erythropoietin: Hormone that stimulates erythrocyte maturation, utilized to manage chronic anemia.


  • Growth hormone: Somatotropin is synthesized to manage pituitary dwarfism and growth deficiency syndromes.


  • Vaccine: Biological formulations engineered to elicit adaptive immunity against infectious microbes.

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.
