Chapter 01: Cell Structure and Function
MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. The nucleus, which is essential for function and survival of the cell:
A) is the site of protein synthesis
✅ B) contains the genetic code
C) transforms cellular energy
D) initiates aerobic metabolism
Rationale: The nucleus is the control center of the cell because it contains DNA, the genetic
blueprint for protein synthesis and cell function. It does not synthesize proteins itself—that
occurs in the ribosomes.
2. Although energy is not made in mitochondria, they are known as the power plants of the cell
because they:
A) contain RNA for protein synthesis
B) utilize glycolysis for oxidative energy
✅ C) extract energy from organic compounds
D) store calcium bonds for muscle contractions
Rationale: Mitochondria are responsible for extracting energy from nutrients through aerobic
metabolism, primarily via the citric acid cycle and electron transport chain. Glycolysis occurs in
the cytoplasm, not the mitochondria.
3. Although the basic structure of the cell plasma membrane is formed by a lipid bilayer, most of
the specific membrane functions are carried out by:
✅ A) bound and transmembrane proteins
B) complex, long carbohydrate chains
C) surface antigens and hormone receptors
D) a gating system of selective ion channels
