A 3-day old infant is noted to have a mildly elevated unconjugated bilirubin level and icterus.
Your concern is that this child may have:
a. physiologic jaundice
b. kernicterus
c. glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency
d. pathologic jaundice
Correct Answer
physiologic jaundice


Question 2
Which cell component is capable of cellular autodigestion when it is released during cell
injury?
a. lysosomes
b. ribosomesc. smooth endoplasmi
c reticulum
d. golgi complex
Correct Answer
Lysosomes


Question 3
Ans: B- peroxisomes
Correct Answer
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) oxyhydrosomes


Question 4
The difference between eukaryotes and prokaryotes is that eukaryotes:
a. all of these answers are correct
b. are smaller in size
c. contain organelles
d. have no nuclear membrane

,Correct Answer
Contain organelles and complex internal membranes


Question 5
Ans: B- influx of calcium ions halts adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production
Correct Answer
What is a consequence of plasma membrane damage to the mitochondria?

A) enzymatic digestion halts deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) synthese
B) influx of calcium ions halts adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production
C) edema from an influx in sodium causes a reduction in ATP production
D) potassium shifts out of the mitochondria, which destroys the infrastructure


Question 6
Which of the following is function of Golgi?
a. Packages protein for secretion to the outside of the cell
b. Produces ATP for cell function
c. Contains hydrolytic enzymes
d. Is the site of protein synthesis in a cell
Correct Answer
Packages protein for secretion to the outside of the cell


Question 7
Ans: A- apoptosis involves programmed cell death of scattered singel cells
Correct Answer
Which statement is a description of one of the characteristics of apoptosis?

A) apoptosis involves programmed cell death of scattered singel cells
B) apoptosis is characterized by the swelling of the nucleus and the cytoplasm
C) apoptosis involves unpredictable patterns of cell death
D) apoptosis results in benign malignancies


Question 8
Ans: C- the osmotic pressure is increased, which pulls additional sodium across the cell
membrane
Correct Answer
During cell injury caused by hypoxia, sodium and water move into the cell because:

A) during cell injury cause by hypoxia, sodium and water move into the cell because:
B) the pump that transports sodium out of the cell cannot function because of a decrease in
adenosine triphosphate (ATP) levels
C) the osmotic pressure is increased, which pulls additional sodium across the cell membrane
D) oxygen is not available to bind with sodium to maintain it outside of the cell


Question 9

, Which of the following is function of the rough endoplasmic reticulum?
a. Contains hydrolytic enzymes
b. Is the site of protein synthesis in a cell
c. Packages protein for secretion to the outside of the cell
d. Produces ATP for cell function
Correct Answer
Is the site of protein synthesis in a cell


Question 10
Ans: A- adipose cells contain little water because fat is water repelling
Correct Answer
Obesity creates a greater risk for dehydration in people because:

A) adipose cells contain little water because fat is water repelling
B) the metabolic rates of obese adults are slower than those of lean adults
C) the rates of urine output of obese adults are higher than thos of lean adults
D) the thirst receptors of the hypothalamus do not function effectively


Question 11
What genetic process is likely responsible for the occurrence of asthma in only one of a pair
of identical twins?
a. genomic imprinting
b. epigenetic modifications
c. methylation
d. transgenerational inheritance
Correct Answer

b. DNA polymerase binds to the promoter site on RNA.
c. RNA directs the synthesis of ribosomes for protein synthesis
d. RNA is synthesized from a DNA template
Correct Answer
RNA is synthesized from a DNA template

b. paternal viral illness
c. nondisjunction error
d. maternal viral illness
Correct Answer
nondisjunction error
