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
$! $! $! $! $! $!
D) Destruction of particles by lysosomal enzymes for secretion
$! $! $! $! $! $! $!
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 n
$! $! $! $! $! $! $! $! $! $! $! $! $!
umber of layers. Which of the following is a correctly matched description a
$! $! $! $! $! $! $! $! $! $! $! $!
nd 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
$! $! $! $! $! $! $! $! $! $! $! $! $! $!
