4 Body Parts Discovered in the Last 10 Years

The video explores recent anatomical discoveries, including the interstitium, Dua's layer in the cornea, transcortical capillaries in bones, and the brain's lymphatic system. These findings have significant implications for understanding diseases and improving medical treatments.

What is the interstitium, and why is it significant?

• A new organ that helps in digestion

• A layer of skin that protects against UV rays

• A network of fluid-filled compartments important for disease understanding

• A type of muscle tissue found in the heart

What is the significance of the interstitium in cancer research?

• It is unrelated to cancer research

• It may allow cancer cells to spread through the lymphatic system

• It acts as a barrier to prevent cancer spread

• It helps in the production of cancer cells

How was the Dua's layer in the cornea discovered?

• Through genetic testing

• Using a new type of contact lens

• During corneal transplants using the big bubble technique

• By accident during a heart surgery

What is the main component of the Dua's layer that contributes to its toughness?

• Elastin

• Collagen

• Chitin

• Keratin

What role do transcortical capillaries play in bone health?

• They are involved in the production of red blood cells

• They transport stem cells and are linked to bone strength

• They help in the digestion of food

• They transport oxygen to the muscles

What was the conventional view of waste removal in the brain before the discovery of the brain's lymphatic system?

• Waste was removed through the skin

• Waste was absorbed by the muscles

• Waste flowed into cerebrospinal fluid before reaching the bloodstream

• Waste was directly excreted through the kidneys

What potential impact does the discovery of the brain's lymphatic system have on Alzheimer's disease?

• It indicates that lymphatic activity might help clear harmful proteins

• It suggests a new method for curing Alzheimer's

• It shows that Alzheimer's is caused by bacteria

• It proves that Alzheimer's is not related to brain physiology
