APPLIED PATHOPHYSIOLOGY FOR THE ADVANCED 100 PERCENT
CORRECT QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
◉ Mitochondria. Answer: are known as the power plants of the cell
because they extract energy from organic compounds.
◉ Cell plasma membrane. Answer: is formed by a lipid bilayer, with
specific membrane functions carried out by bound and
transmembrane proteins.
◉ Cell-to-cell communication. Answer: utilizes chemical messenger
systems that release secretions into extracellular fluid.
◉ Aerobic metabolism. Answer: provides energy by combining
hydrogen and oxygen to form water.
◉ Exocytosis. Answer: is important in removing cellular debris and
releasing synthesized substances into the extracellular fluid.
◉ Membrane potentials. Answer: are generated and conducted by
diffusion of current-carrying ions.
,◉ Epithelial tissues. Answer: are classified according to the shape of
the cells and the number of layers.
◉ Simple epithelium. Answer: is a type of epithelial tissue where
cells are in contact with intercellular matrix; some do not extend to
surface.
◉ Stratified epithelium. Answer: is a type of epithelial tissue with a
single layer of cells; all cells rest on basement membrane.
◉ Glandular epithelium. Answer: arises from surface epithelia and
underlying connective tissue.
◉ Pseudostratified epithelium. Answer: is a type of epithelial tissue
with multiple layers of cells; the deepest layer rests on basement
membrane.
◉ Fibroblasts. Answer: in connective tissue are responsible for the
synthesis of collagen, elastin, and reticular fibers.
◉ Smooth muscle. Answer: is also known as involuntary muscle and
differs by having dense bodies attached to actin filaments.
,◉ Ribosomal RNA (rRNA). Answer: performs the function of
providing the site where protein synthesis occurs.
◉ Lysosomes. Answer: are organelles responsible for the breakdown
and removal of foreign substances and worn-out cell parts.
◉ Peroxisomes. Answer: are involved in the impairment of cellular
functions when their function is compromised.
◉ Protein synthesis. Answer: involves copying and carrying DNA
instructions.
◉ Calcium bonds. Answer: are stored in mitochondria for muscle
contractions.
◉ Cell gap junctions. Answer: accumulate chemical messengers for
effective signaling.
◉ Ion channel neurotransmission. Answer: is responsible for
generating and conducting membrane potentials.
◉ Collagen. Answer: is synthesized by fibroblasts in connective
tissue.
, ◉ Cellular debris. Answer: is removed by exocytosis.
◉ ATP. Answer: is involved in aerobic metabolism by having its
phosphate bonds removed.
◉ Inability to transport cellular products. Answer: an inability to
transport cellular products across the cell membrane.
◉ Insufficient energy production. Answer: insufficient energy
production within a cell.
◉ Accumulation of free radicals. Answer: accumulation of free
radicals in the cytoplasm.
◉ Decreased sperm motility. Answer: a finding that is thought to
underlie the couples inability to become pregnant.
◉ Defective cellular components in sperm. Answer: Ribosomes,
Microtubules, Mitochondria, Microfilaments.
◉ True statement of glycolysis. Answer: Glycolysis occurs in cells
without mitochondria.
