c. contain organelles
d. have no nuclear membrane
5. What is a consequence of plasma membrane damage to the
mitochondria?
A) enzymatic digestion halts deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) synthese
B) influx of calcium ions halts adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
production

6. Packages protein for secretion to the outside of the cell: Which of
the following is function of Golgi?
a. Packages protein for secretion to the outside of the cell
b. Produces ATP for cell function
c. Contains hydrolytic enzymes
d. Is the site of protein synthesis in a cell
7. Which statement is a description of one of the characteristics of
apoptosis?
A) apoptosis involves programmed cell death of scattered singel
cells
B)apoptosis is characterized by the swelling of the nucleus and the
cytoplasm
C) apoptosis involves unpredictable patterns of cell death

programmed cell death of scattered singel cells
8. During cell injury caused by hypoxia, sodium and water move
into the cell because:
A) during cell injury cause by hypoxia, sodium and water move
into the cell because:

function because of a decrease in adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
levels
