Chapter 01: Cellular Biology




MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. A student is observing a cell under the microscope. It is observed to have
supercoiled DNA with histones. Which of the following would also be
observed by the student?
a. A single circular chromosome
b. A nucleus
c. Free-floating nuclear material
d. No organelles
ANS >> B
The cell described is a eukaryotic cell, so it has histones and a supercoiled
DNA within its nucleus; thus, the nucleus should be observed. A single circular
chromosome called a prokaryote contains free-floating nuclear material but
has no organelles.

REF: p. 2

2. A nurse is instructing the staff about cellular functions. Which cellular function
is the nurse describing when an isolated cell absorbs oxygen and uses it to
transform nutrients to energy?
a. Metabolic absorption
b. Communication
c. Secretion
d. Respiration
ANS >> D NURSINGTB.COM
The cell’s ability to absorb oxygen is referred to as respiration while its
communication ability
involves maintenance of a steady dynamic state, metabolic absorption provides
nutrition, and secretion allows for the synthesizing of new substances.

REF: p. 2

3. A eukaryotic cell is undergoing DNA replication. In which region of the cell
would most of the genetic information be contained?
a. Mitochondria
b. Ribosome
c. Nucleolus
d. Nucleus Cytoplasm
