MCQ
Hyaluronic acid is present in:
- AHuman sperm
- BConnective tissues
- COvum
- DBoth B and C
Explanation:
Hyaluronic acid is an anionic, nonsulfated glycosaminoglycan distributed widely throughout connective, epithelial, and neural tissues.
It is found in the ground substance of synovial fluid of joints and vitreous humor of eyes.
It is also present as a ground substance in connective tissues and forms a gel around the ovum.
Hyaluronic acid serves as a lubricant and shock absorbent in joints.
The enzyme hyaluronidase present in semen degrades the gel (hyaluronic acid) around the ovum which allows effective penetration of sperm into the ovum.
