Question

Match List-I with List-II:

Microtome Knives		Use
(A)	Plano Concave	(I) It has got both surfaces flat with a steep cutting edge
(B)	Tool Edge profile	(II) Its both surfaces are concave
(C)	Biconcave	(III) Both the surface are flat
(D)	Plane edge/Wedge shaped	(IV) It has one surface plane and other concave

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. (A)- (IV), (B)- (I), (C)- (II), (D)- (III)
• B. (A)- (II), (B)- (I), (C)- (IV), (D)- (III)
• C. (A)- (III), (B)- (I), (C)- (II), (D)- (IV)
• D. (A)- (IV), (B)- (III), (C)- (II), (D)- (I)

Hint:

Understanding the correct types of microtome knives and their uses ensures proper tissue sectioning

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Plano Concave: One surface is plane, the other is concave. Tool Edge profile: Both surfaces are flat, forming a steep cutting edge. Biconcave: Both surfaces are concave. Plane edge Wedge shaped: Both surfaces are flat.
