The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "Which of the following terms doesn't mean one and the same?", we will analyze each option provided to determine if they are synonymous or not. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Terms**: We need to identify what each term in the options means and if they refer to the same concept. 2. **Analyze Option A: Polygobulia and Polysithemia**: - **Polygobulia**: This term refers to an increased number of red blood cells. - **Polysithemia**: This term is often used interchangeably with polygobulia and refers to an increase in the volume of red blood cells. - **Conclusion**: These two terms are synonymous. 3. **Analyze Option B: Squanger and Monocyte**: - **Squanger**: This term is not commonly used but seems to refer to cells that engulf pathogens (phagocytes). - **Monocyte**: This is a type of white blood cell that can differentiate into macrophages and dendritic cells, which are phagocytic. - **Conclusion**: While not a perfect match, monocytes can be considered squangers due to their phagocytic nature. This option is also synonymous in a broader sense. 4. **Analyze Option C: Bicuspid Valve and Mitral Valve**: - **Bicuspid Valve**: This is a valve in the heart with two flaps. - **Mitral Valve**: This is the same valve known as the bicuspid valve, located between the left atrium and left ventricle. - **Conclusion**: These two terms are synonymous. 5. **Analyze Option D: Myocardial Infarction and Myocardial Ischemia**: - **Myocardial Ischemia**: This condition occurs when blood flow to the heart muscle is reduced, preventing it from receiving enough oxygen. - **Myocardial Infarction**: This is a heart attack, which occurs when blood flow to a part of the heart is blocked, causing tissue damage. - **Conclusion**: These two terms are not synonymous. Myocardial ischemia can lead to myocardial infarction, but they describe different conditions. ### Final Answer: The term that does not mean one and the same is **Option D: Myocardial Infarction and Myocardial Ischemia**. ---
