Propolis Cognitive Error Autopsy

Official Correct Choice:
Option C: Spleen
Concept:

Secondary lymphoid organs are macroscopic structures that house high densities of lymphocytes for immune surveillance.

Formula:

None

Solution:

  • Located in the upper left quadrant of the abdomen, the spleen is an organ roughly the size of a fist.


  • It contains vast amounts of white pulp (lymphoid tissue) and red pulp. By sheer mass and volume, it is the largest single collection of lymphoid tissue in the human body.


Why other options are incorrect:

  • Thymus/Tonsils: These are much smaller lymphoid structures.


  • Pancreas: An endocrine/exocrine digestive organ, not a lymphoid organ.

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.
