Whether a limitation of use or function is "significant” or "consequential” (i.e., important; see, Counter-mine v Galka, 189 AD2d 1043, 1045 ) relates to medical significance and involves a comparative determination of the degree or qualitative nature of an injury based on the normal function, purpose and use of the body part (see, Robillard v Robbins, 168 AD2d 803 , affd 78 NY2d 1105 ).

OPINION OF THE COURT

Memorandum.

The order of the Appellate Division should be affirmed, with costs.

While defendants urge that it was error to allow plaintiffs medical expert to express opinions on the very questions to be resolved by the jury, their general objections were insufficient to preserve a law issue for our review (see, Matter of Gonzalez v State Liq. Auth., 30 NY2d 108, 112-113; Wightman v Campbell, 217 NY 479, 482-483).

Chief Judge Wachtler and Judges Simons, Kaye, Alexander, Titone, Hancock, Jr., and Bellacosa concur.

Order affirmed, with costs, in a memorandum.
