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) Remo𝑣ing “cellular “debris “and “releasing “synthesized “substances
Destruction “of “particles “by “lysosomal “enzymes “for “secretion D)
7.The “process “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) ha𝑣ing “rapid “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) Copying “and “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 “sperm “ha𝑣e
“decreased “motility, “a “finding “that “is “thought “to “underlie “the “couples
“inability “to “become “pregnant.
