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 tbe tobserved. tA tsingle tcircular tchromosome tcalled ta
tprokaryote tcontains tfree-floating tnuclear tmaterial tbut thas tno torganelles.

2. A tnurse tis tinstructing tthe tstaff tabout tcellular tfunctions. tWhich tcellular tfunction tis tthe
tnurse tdescribing twhen tan tisolated tcell tabsorbs toxygen tand tuses tit tto ttransform tnutrients
tto tenergy?
a. Metabolic tabsorption
b. Communication
c. Secretion
d. Respiration
ANS: t D NURSINGTB.COM
The tcell’s tability tto tabsorb toxygen tis treferred tto tas trespiration twhile tits tcommunication
tability
involves tmaintenance tof ta tsteady tdynamic tstate, tmetabolic tabsorption tprovides tnutrition, tand
tsecretion tallows tfor tthe tsynthesizing tof tnew tsubstances.

3. A teukaryotic tcell tis tundergoing tDNA treplication. tIn twhich tregion tof tthe tcell twould tmost
tof tthe tgenetic tinformation tbe tcontained?
a. Mitochondria
b. Ribosome
c. Nucleolus
d. Nucleus tCytoplasm
ANS: t C
The tregion tof tthe tcell tthat tcontains tgenetic tmaterial, tincluding ta tlarge tamount tof
tribonucleic tacid, tmost tof tthe tDNA, tand tDNA-binding tproteins, tis tthe tnucleolus, twhich tis
tlocated twithin tthe tcell’s tnucleus. tMitochondria tis tassociated twith tcellular trespiration,
twhile tribosomes tare tinvolved twith tprotein tmanufacturing. tCytoplasm tis ta tfluid tfilling tthat
tis ta tcomponent tof tthe tcell.
