Chapter 1Introduction to Pathophysiology
| | |




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 | |



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.
| | | | |



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.
| | | | | |



4. To effectively relay signals, cell-to-cell communication utilizes chemical
| | | | | | |


messenger systems that:
| | |



A) displace surface receptor proteins. | | |



B) accumulate within cell gap junctions. | | | |



C) bind to contractile microfilaments.
| | |



D) release secretions into extracellular fluid.
| | | |



5. Aerobic metabolism, also known as oxidative metabolism, provides energy by:
| | | | | | | | |

,A) removing the phosphate bonds from ATP. | | | | |



B) combining hydrogen and oxygen to form water. | | | | | |



C) activating pyruvate stored in the cytoplasm. | | | | |



D) breaking down glucose to form lactic acid.
| | | | | |



6. Exocytosis, the reverse of endocytosis, is important in
| | | | | | | into the|


extracellular fluid.
| |



A) Engulfing and ingesting fluid and proteins for transport| | | | | | |



B) Killing, degrading, and dissolving harmful microorganisms
| | | | |



C) Removingcellular debris and releasing synthesized substances| | | | | |



D) Destruction of particles by lysosomal enzymes for secretion | | | | | | |



7. Theprocess responsible for generating and conducting membrane potentials is:
| | | | | | | | |



A) diffusion of current-carrying ions. | | |



B) millivoltage of electrical potential. | | |



C) polarization of charged particles. | | |



D) ion channel neurotransmission.
| |



8. Epithelial tissues are classified according to the shape of the cells and the
| | | | | | | | | | | |


number of layers. Which of the following is a correctly matched description
| | | | | | | | | | | |


and type of epithelial tissue?
| | | | |



A) Simple epithelium: cells in contact with intercellular matrix; some do not
| | | | | | | | | |


extend to surface
| | |



B) Stratified epithelium: single layer of cells; all cells rest on basement
| | | | | | | | | |


membrane
|



C) Glandular epithelium: arise from surface epithelia and underlying
| | | | | | |


connective tissue
| |



D) Pseudostratified epithelium: multiple layers of cells; deepest layer rests on | | | | | | | | |


basement membrane
| |



9. Connective tissue contains fibroblasts that are responsible for:
| | | | | | |



A) providing a fibrous framework for capillaries. | | | | |



B) synthesis of collagen, elastin, and reticular fibers.
| | | | | |

, C) forming tendons and the fascia that covers muscles.
| | | | | | |



D) filling spaces between tissues to keep organs in place.
| | | | | | | |



10. Although all muscle tissue cells have some similarities, smooth muscle (also
| | | | | | | | | |


known as involuntary muscle) differs by:
| | | | | |



A) having dense bodies attached to actin filaments.
| | | | | |



B) containing sarcomeres between Z lines and M bands. | | | | | | |



C) havingrapid contractions and abundant cross-striations.
| | | | |



D) contracting in response to increased intracellular calcium. | | | | | |



11. Which of the following aspects of the function of the nucleus is performed by
| | | | | | | | | | | | |


ribosomal RNA (rRNA)?
| | |



A) Copyingand carrying DNA instructions for protein synthesis
| | | | | | |



B) Carrying amino acids to the site of protein synthesis | | | | | | | |



C) Providing the site where protein synthesis occurs | | | | | |



D) Regulating and controlling protein synthesis | | | |



12. Breakdown and removal of foreign substances and worn-out cell parts are
| | | | | | | | | |


performed by which of the following organelles?
| | | | | | |



A) Lysosomes
B) Golgi apparatus |



C) Ribosomes
D) Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) | |



13. Impairment in the function of peroxisomes would result in:
| | | | | | | |



A) inadequate sites for protein synthesis. | | | |



B) an inability to transport cellular products across the cell membrane.
| | | | | | | | |



C) insufficient energy production within a cell. | | | | |



D) accumulation of free radicals in the cytoplasm. | | | | | |



14. After several months of trying to conceive, a couple is undergoing fertility
| | | | | | | | | | |


testing. Semen analysis indicates that the mans spermhave decreased motility, a
| | | | | | | | | | | |


finding that is thought to underlie the couples inability to become pregnant.
