MULTIPLE CHOICE zk




1. A student is observing a cell under the microscope. It is observed to have supercoiled
zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk



DNA with histones. Which of the following would also be observed by the student?
zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk




a. A single circular chromosome
zk zk zk




b. A nucleus zk




c. Free-floating nuclear material zk zk




d. No organelles zk




ANS: B zk




The cell described is a eukaryotic cell, so it has histones and a supercoiled DNA within its nucle
zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk



us; thus, the nucleus should be observed. A single circular chromosome is characteristic of prokar
zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk



yotic cells, which do not have histones. Free-
zk zk zk zk zk zk zk



floating nuclear material describes a prokaryotic cell, which would not have a distinct nucleus. E
zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk



ukaryotic cells have membrane- zk zk zk



bound cellular components called organelles. No organelles describe a prokaryotic cell.
zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk




2. A nurse is instructing the staff about cellular functions. Which cellular function is
zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk



the nurse describing when an isolated cell absorbs oxygen and uses it to transform
zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk



nutrients to energy? zk zk




a. Metabolic absorption zk




b. Communication
c. Secretion
d. Respiration

ANS: D zk




The ability of the cell to absorb oxygen refers to the cells function of respiration. The ability of t
zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk



he cell to function within a society of cells refers to its function of communication. The ability o
zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk

3. A eukaryotic cell is undergoing DNA replication. In which region of the cell would
zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk




most of the genetic information be contained?
zk zk zk zk zk zk




a. Mitochondria
b. Ribosome
c. Nucleolus
d. Nucleus

ANS: C zk




The region of the cell that contains genetic material, including a large amount of ribonucleic acid
zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk



, most of the DNA, and DNA-
zk zk zk zk zk zk



binding proteins, is the nucleolus. The mitochondria is the site of cellular respiration. The riboso
zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk



mes are involved in the manufacturing of proteins within the cell. The nucleus contains the nucle
zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk



olus, and it is the nucleolus that contains genetic material.

4. The fluid- zk



mosaic model for biologic membranes describes membrane behavior. According to this
zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk



model, which of the following float singly or as aggregates in the fluid lipid bilayer?
zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk




a. Peripheral membrane proteins zk zk




b. Integral membrane proteins zk zk




c. Glycoproteins
d. Cell adhesion molecules
zk zk




ANS: B zk




Integral membrane proteins float freely in the fluid lipid bilayer. Peripheral membrane proteins ar
zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk



e not embedded in the layer, but reside at the surface. Glycoproteins act as cell surface markers.
zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk zk



Cell adhesion molecules are on the outside of the membrane and allow cells to hook together.
