I. THE CELL

Chapter 1: The Cell In Health And Illness
Davis Advantage for Pathophysiology Introductory Concepts and Clinical Perspectives 3rd Edition by Theresa Capriotti



Multiple Choice
Identify The Choice That Best Completes The Statement Or Answers The Question.

1. Which Statement Regarding The Sodium–Potassium Pump Is Correct?

1. The Cell’s Plasma Membrane Is More Soluble To Sodium Ions Than Potassium Ions.
2. The Concentration Of Sodium Ions Should Be Higher Inside The Cell Compartment.
3. The Concentration Of Potassium Ions Should Be Higher Outside The Cell Compartment.
4. The Active Transport Involves Pumping Out Three Sodium Ions And Pumping In Two
Potassium Ions.
ANS: 4.
Feedback:
The Sodium-Potassium Pump Actively Transports Three Sodium Ions Out And Two
Potassium Ions In, Maintaining The Necessary Concentration Gradients.
Choice 1: Incorrect; The Membrane Is More Permeable To Potassium Ions.
Choice 2: Incorrect; Sodium Ion Concentration Is Higher Outside The Cell.
Choice 3: Incorrect; Potassium Ions Are More Concentrated Inside The Cell.


PTS: 1 CON: Cellular Regulation
Objective: Recognize The Major Organelles And Their Function Within The Cell. Page: 1
Heading: Cell Structure And Function>The Sodium Potassium Pump (Na+/K+ Pump)
Integrated Process: Nursing Process
Client Need: Physiological Integrity: Physiological Adaptation Cognitive Level:

2. In The Absence Of Oxygen, Which Cellular Function Creates The Same Amount Of
Energy As Is Created In The Presence Of Oxygen?
1. Dissipation Of Pyruvic Acid
2. Initiation Of The Citric Acid Cycle
3. Activation Of Acetyl-Coenzyme A
4. Creation Of Acidosis Via Lactic Acid

ANS: 2.
Feedback:
In The Absence Of Oxygen, Pyruvic Acid Is Converted Into Acetyl-Coenzyme A, Which
Triggers A Series Of Reactions Known As The Krebs Cycle, Also Called The Citric Acid
Cycle.
Choice 1: Incorrect; Pyruvic Acid Does Not Create Energy.
Choice 3: Incorrect; This Step Also Requires Aerobic Conditions.
Choice 4: Incorrect; In Cellular Hypoxia, Pyruvic Acid Is Converted To Lactic Acid, Which
Is Noxious To Cells, Causing Muscle Pain And Biochemical Alterations Such As Acidosis.


PTS: 1 CON: Cellular Regulation
Objective: Discuss The Difference Between Aerobic And Anaerobic Metabolism. Page: 3

3. How Many Adenosine Triphosphates (Atps) Are Produced In Aerobic Energy Metabolism?

1. 2
2. 3
3. 34
4. 53
ANS: 3.
Feedback:
Approximately 34 Atps Can Be Generated Per Glucose Molecule During Aerobic Metabolism
Through Oxidative Phosphorylation.
Choice 1: Incorrect; Glycolysis Yields Only 2 ATP.
Choice 2: Incorrect; This Is A Specific Yield, Not Total ATP.
Choice 4: Incorrect; This Is An Overestimate.

4. Which Cell Organelles Differ In Their Number According To The Cell’s Energy Needs?

1. Ribosomes
2. Mitochondria
3. Ribonucleic Acids
4. Deoxyribonucleic Acids
ANS: 2.
Feedback:
Mitochondria Numbers Vary Based On A Cell’s Energy Requirements, With More In
Energy-Demanding Tissues.
Choice 1: Incorrect; Ribosomes Are Usually Constant.
Choice 3: Incorrect; RNA Levels Do Not Vary In This Manner.
Choice 4: Incorrect; DNA Quantity Remains Stable.

5. Which Option Best Supports The Reason More Energy Is Produced When A Person Is
Exercising?
1. Exercise Causes An Increase In The Synthesis Of Protein.
2. There Is An Increase In The Production Of Pyruvic Acid In The Cells.
3. The Conversion Of Pyruvic Acid To Lactic Acid Is Increased By Exercise.
4. Muscle Cells Have More Mitochondria To Meet Energy Demands.
ANS: 4.
Feedback:
More Mitochondria Enhance ATP Production During Exercise.
Choice 1: Incorrect; Protein Synthesis Does Not Directly Increase Energy.
Choice 2: Incorrect; Pyruvic Acid Increases But Does Not Directly Indicate More Energy.
