Multiple Choice
Which Statement Best Describes The Cellular Function Of Metabolic Absorption?
Cells Can Produce Proteins. C. Cells Can Take In And Use Nutrients.
Cells Can Secrete Digestive Enzymes. D. Cells Can Synthesize Fats.
Ans: C
In Metabolic Absorption, All Cells Take In And Use Nutrients And Other Substances From Their Surroundings.
The Remaining Options Are Not Inclusive In Their Descriptions Of Cellular Metabolic Absorption.
Pts: 1 Ref: Page 2
Most Of A Cell’s Genetic Information, Including Rna And Dna, Is Contained In The:
Mitochondria C. Nucleolus
Ribosome D. Lysosome
Ans: C
The Nucleus Contains The Nucleolus, A Small Dense Structure Composed Largely Of Rna, Most Of The Cellular
Dna, And The Dna-Binding Proteins, Such As The Histones, Which Regulate Its Activity. The Other Options Do
Not Contain Most Of A Cell’s Genetic Information.

Which Component Of The Cell Prodnuucerssihnygdtrobg.Cenomperoxide (H2o2) By Using Oxygen To Remove
Hydrogen Atoms From Specific Substrates In An Oxidative Reaction?
Lysosomes C. Ribosomes
Peroxisomes D. Oxyhydrosomes
Ans: B
Peroxisomes Are So Named Because They Usually Contain Enzymes That Use Oxygen To Remove Hydrogen
Atoms From Specific Substrates In An Oxidative Reaction That Produces H2o2, Which Is A Powerful Oxidant
And Potentially Destructive If It Accumulates Or Escapes From Peroxisomes. Ribosomes Are Rna -Protein
Complexes (Nucleoproteins) That Are Synthesized In The Nucleolus And Secreted Into The Cytoplasm Through
Pores In The Nuclear Envelope Called Nuclear Pore Complexes. Lysosomes Are Saclike Structures That
Originate From The Golgi Complex And Contain More Than 40 Digestive Enzymes Called Hydrolases, Which
Catalyze Bonds In Proteins, Lipids, Nucleic Acids, And Carbohydrates. Oxyhydrosomes Are Involved In Enzyme
Production.

Which Cell Component Is Capable Of Cellular Autodigestion When It Is Released During Cell Injury?
Ribosome C. Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
Golgi Complex D. Lysosomes Ans: D

, PATHOPHYSIOLOGY 9TH EDITION MCCANCE TEST BANK
The Lysosomal Membrane Acts As A Protective Shield Between The Powerful Digestive Enzymes Within The
Lysosome And The Cytoplasm, Preventing Their Leakage Into The Cytoplasmic Matrix. Disruption Of The
Membrane By Various Treatments Or Cellular Injury Leads To A Release Of The Lysosomal Enzymes, Which
Can Then React With Their Specific Substrates, Causing Cellular Self -Digestion. The Other Options Do Not
Correctly Describe This Process.
Pts: 1 Ref: Pages 7-8
What Is The Sequence Of Steps In The Development Of A Digestive Enzyme By The Pancreas Cells From The
Initial Transcription To The Release From The Cell?
The Enzyme Is Transcribed From Dna By Rna In The Nucleus, Proceeds To The Ribosome For Synthesis, And Is
Transported In A Secretory Vesicle To The Cell Membrane.
The Enzyme Is Transcribed From Rna By Dna In The Nucleus, Proceeds To The Lysosome For Synthesis, And Is
Transported In An Encapsulated Membrane To The Cell Membrane.
The Enzyme Is Transcribed By The Mitochondria In The Nucleus, Proceeds To The Ribosome For Synthesis,
And Is Transported In A Cytoskeleton To The Cell Membrane.
The Enzyme Is Transcribed From Dna By Rna In The Nucleus, Proceeds To The Golgi Complex For Synthesis,
And Is Transported In A Cytosol To The Cell Membrane.
Ans: A
The Enzyme Is Transcribed From Dna By Rna In The Nucleus, Proceeds To The Ribosome For Synthesis, And Is
Transported In A Secretory Vesicle To The Cell Membrane. The Other Options Do Not Correctly Describe This

During Which Phase Of The Cell Cycle Is Dna Synthesized?
G1 C. G2
S D. M
Ans: B
The Four Designated Phases Of The Cell Cycle Are: (1) The G1 Phase (G = Gap), Which Is The Period Between
The M Phase (M = Mitosis) And The Start Of Dna Synthesis; (2) The S Phase (S = Synthesis), During Which Dna
Is Synthesized In The Cell Nucleus; (3) The G2 Phase, During Which Rna And Protein Synthesis Occurs, The
Period Between The Completion Of Dna Synthesis And The Next Phase (M); And (4) The M Phase, Which
Includes Nuclear And Cytoplasmic Division.
