Chapters 1–28
PART I: THE MOLECULAR DESIGN OF LIFE
CHAPTER 1: THE FOUNDATIONS OF BIOCHEMISTRY
Multiple Choice Questions
1. Which of the following is the correct hierarchy of biological organization from smallest to largest?
a) Cell → Organelle → Tissue → Organ → Organism
b) Atom → Molecule → Organelle → Cell → Tissue
c) Molecule → Atom → Cell → Organ → Organism
d) Organelle → Molecule → Cell → Tissue → Organ
Answer: b
Rationale: The correct hierarchy from smallest to largest is atom → molecule → organelle → cell →
tissue → organ → organ system → organism.
2. Which of the following elements make up approximately 97% of the weight of most living
organisms?
a) C, H, O, N, S, P
b) C, H, O, N, Fe, Ca
c) C, H, O, N, P, S
d) C, H, O, N
Answer: d
Rationale: Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen together account for more than 97% of the mass of
most organisms. Phosphorus, sulfur, and other elements account for the remainder.
