MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. A Student Is Observing A Cell Under The Microscope. It Is Observed To Have
Supercoiled DNA With Histones. Which Of The Following Would Also Be Observed By
The Student?
a. A Single Circular Chromosome
b. A Nucleus
c. Free-Floating Nuclear Material
d. No Organelles
ANS: B
The Cell Described Is A Eukaryotic Cell, So It Has Histones And A Supercoiled DNA Within
Its Nucleus; Thus, The Nucleus Should Be Observed. A Single Circular Chromosome Called
A Prokaryote Contains Free-Floating Nuclear Material But Has No Organelles.
2. A Nurse Is Instructing The Staff About Cellular Functions. Which Cellular Function Is The
Nurse Describing When An Isolated Cell Absorbs Oxygen And Uses It To Transform
Nutrients To Energy?
a. Metabolic Absorption
b. Communication
c. Secretion
d. Respiration
ANS: D
The Cell’s Ability To Absorb Oxygen Is Referred To As Respiration While Its Communication
Ability Involves Maintenance Of A S t e adny Dynamic State, Metabolic Absorption Provides
Nutrition, And Secretion Allows For The Synthesizing Of New Substances.
3. A Eukaryotic Cell Is Undergoing DNA Replication. In Which Region Of The Cell Would
Most Of The Genetic Information Be Contained?
a. Mitochondria
b. Ribosome
c. Nucleolus
d. Nucleus Cytoplasm
ANS: C
The Region Of The Cell That Contains Genetic Material, Including A Large Amount Of
Ribonucleic Acid, Most Of The DNA, And DNA-Binding Proteins, Is The Nucleolus, Which
Is Located Within The Cell’s Nucleus. Mitochondria Is Associated With Cellular Respiration
While Ribosomes Are Involved With Protein Manufacturing. Cytoplasm Is A Fluid Filling
That Is A Component Of The Cell.
4. Which Of The Following Can Remove Proteins Attached To The Cell’s Bilayer By
Dissolving The Layer Itself?
a. Peripheral Membrane Proteins
b. Integral Membrane Proteins
c. Glycoproteins
d. Cell Adhesion Molecules
