MULTIPLE |CHOICE

1. Which |statement |best |describes |the |cellular |function |of |metabolic |absorption?
a. Cells |can |produce |proteins.
b. Cells |can |secrete |digestive |enzymes.
c. Cells |can |take |in |and |use |nutrients.
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.

2. Where |is |most |of |a |cell’s |genetic |information, |including |RNA |and |DNA, |contained?
a. Mitochondria
b. Ribosome
c. Nucleolus
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 |mitochondria |are |responsible |for |cellular |respiration |and |energy |production.

Ribosomes’ |chief |function |is |to |provide |sites |for |cellular |protein |synthesis. |Lysosomes
|function |as |the |intracellular |digestive |system.




PTS: | | 1 DIF: Cognitive |Level: |Remembering

3. Which |component |of |the |cell |produces |hydrogen |peroxide |(H2O2) |by |using |oxygen |to |remove
hydrogen |atoms |from |specific |substrates |in |an |oxidative |reaction?
|

a. Lysosomes
b. Peroxisomes
c. Ribosomes
d. Endosome
ANS: | B
