Question1 — (energyproduction) cn cn cn cn




Which organelle is the primary site of aerobic ATP production via oxidative phosphor

ylation?
A. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum cn cn




B. Mitochondrion
C. Ribosome
D. Lysosome
Correct answer: B. Mitochondrion Rationa

Mitochondria generate the majority of cellular ATP by oxidative phosphorylation

(electron transport chain + chemiosmosis) in the presence of oxygen.

Question2 — Membrane transport cn cn cn cn




A patient receives an IV drug that must enter cells against a concentration gradient. W
cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn




hich transport mechanism is most likely responsible?
cn cn cn cn cn c n




A. Simple diffusion through the lipid bilayer
cn cn cn cn cn




B. Facilitated diffusion through a channel protein cn cn cn cn cn




C. Primary active transport using ATP (e.g., Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase)
cn cn cn cn cn cn




D. Osmosis
Correct answer: C. Primary active transport using ATP (e.g., Na⁺/K⁺-
cn cn cn cn cn cn c n cn cn




ATPase) Rationale: cn




Movement against a concentration gradient requires energy input; primary active
cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn




transport directly uses ATP (or an ATPase) to pump ions or molecules.
cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn




 A and B are passive (do not move substances uphill).
cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn

,  D (osmosis)is passive movement of water across a semipermeable

membrane down its gradient. cn cn cn




Question3 — Facilitateddiffusion example cn cn cn cn cn




Glucose entry into skeletal muscle during resting conditions (no insulin present) predominantly
cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn




occurs by:
c n cn




A. Simple diffusion through the membrane cn cn cn cn




B. Facilitated diffusion via GLUT transporters (down its concentration gradient)
cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn




C. Active transport by Na⁺/glucose cotransporterrequiring ATP
cn cn cn cn cn cn




D. Endocytosis
Correct answer: B. Facilitateddiffusion via GLUT transporters Rat
cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn




ionale:
Glucose crosses membranes via GLUT transporters (carrier proteins) by facilitated dif
cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn




fusion when no energy is required and transport follows the concentration gradient.
cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn




 A is incorrect — glucose is polar and cannot pass by simple diffusion.

 C (Na⁺/glucose cotransport)is used in some epithelia (e.g., intestinal/renal) a

nd is secondaryactive, not the predominant mechanism in resting muscle.
cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn




 D is incorrect —
cn cn cn




endocytosis is not the routine mechanism for glucose uptake.

Question4 — Osmotic effects on red blood cells
cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn




A patient’s red blood cells placed in a hypertonic IV solution will:
cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn




A. Swell and potentially lyse (hemolysis)
cn cn cn cn




B. Shrink (crenate) as water leaves the cell
cn cn cn cn cn cn




C. Remain unchanged because RBC membranes are impermeable to water
cn cn cn cn cn cn c n cn




D. Gain sodium via active transport and maintain size
cn cn cn cn cn cn cn




Correct answer: B. Shrink (crenate) as water leaves the cell Rationa
cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn c n cn




le:
In a hypertonic environment, extracellular osmolarity is higher than intracellular;
cn cn cn cn c n cn cn cn cn




water moves out of the cell by osmosis, causing cell shrinkage (crenation).
cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn

,  A is what happens in hypotonic solutions (water moves in).
cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn




 C is false — water crosses membranes rapidly (aquaporins).
cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn




 D is incorrect — acute sodium pumping cannot prevent osmotic water shifts.

Question5 — Cellular adaptation(definitions)
cn cn cn cn cn




Which term best describes an increase in cell size (e.g., cardiac myocytes enlarging fro
cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn




m chronic pressure overload)?
cn cn cn




A. Hyperplasia
B. Atrophy
C. Hypertrophy
D. Metaplasia
Correctanswer:C. Hypertrophy Rationale:
cn cn cn cn




Hypertrophy = increase in cell size (often with increased functional capacity). For
cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn




example, cardiac myocyte hypertrophy occurs with chronic increased workload.
cn cn cn cn cn cn cn cn




 A (hyperplasia) = increase in cell number.
cn cn cn cn cn cn




 B (atrophy) = decrease in cell size and/or number.

 D (metaplasia) = replacement of one adult cell type with another (adaptive c

hange).


Question6 — Apoptosis vs necrosis
cn cn cn cn cn




Which statement correctly distinguishes apoptosis fromnecrosis?
cn c n cn c n cn cn




A. Apoptosis is an inflammatory, uncontrolled cell death; necrosis is programmed a

nd energy-dependent.

B. Apoptosis is energy-dependent, orderly, and typically non-
cn cn cn cn cn c n




inflammatory; necrosis causes membrane rupture and inflammation.
cn cn cn c n cn cn




C. Apoptosis only occurs in responseto infection; necrosis only occurs with is
cn cn cn cn cn cn c n cn cn cn cn




chemia.
D. Apoptosis always leads to tissue scarring; necrosis never does.

Correctanswer: B. Apoptosis is energy-dependent, orderly, and typically non-
