50. Match the following tumor cell origin with their nomenclature.

(1) A – a, B – c, C – d, D – b
(2) A – d, B – a, C – b, D – c
(3) A – c, B – b, C – d, D – a
(4) A – b, B – d, C – a, D – c

 

Correct matching:

  • A: D (e.g., lymphoma, leukemia – hematopoietic origins)

  • B: A (e.g., carcinomas – epithelial origin)

  • C: B (e.g., sarcomas – mesenchymal origins)

  • D: C (e.g., neuroectodermal tumors)

Most likely correct option:

(3) A – c, B – b, C – d, D – a

Explanation:

  • A (Lymphoid and hematologic cancers): Corresponds to c (hematopoietic origin).

  • B (Carcinomas): Correspond to b (epithelial origin).

  • C (Sarcomas): Correspond to d (mesenchymal origin).

  • D (Neuroectodermal tumors): Correspond to a (neural or neuroectodermal origin).


Summary Table

Tumor Cell Origin Nomenclature Type
Hematopoietic (blood, lymph) c (e.g., leukemia, lymphoma)
Epithelial (skin, organ epithelium) b (carcinomas)
Mesenchymal (muscle, bone, etc.) d (sarcomas)
Neuroectodermal (nervous tissue) a (neuroblastoma, glioma)
