Chapter 1Introduction to Pathophysiology
ju ju ju
1. The nucleus ju ju , which is essential for function and survival of the cell.
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
A) is the site of protein synthesis
ju ju ju ju ju
B) contains the genetic code ju ju ju
C) transforms cellular energy ju ju
D) initiates aerobic metabolism ju ju
2. Although energy is not made in mitochondria, they are known as the
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
power plants of the cell because they:
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
A) contain RNA for protein synthesis.
ju ju ju ju
B) utilize glycolysis for oxidative energy.
ju ju ju ju
C) extract energy from organic compounds.
ju ju ju ju
D) store calcium bonds for muscle contractions.
ju ju ju ju ju
3. Although the basic structure of the cell plasma membrane is formed by a
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
lipid bilayer, most of the specific membrane functions are carried out by: A)
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
bound and transmembrane proteins.
ju ju ju ju
B) complex, long carbohydrate chains. ju ju ju
C) surface antigens and hormone receptors.
ju ju ju ju
D) a gating system of selective ion channels.
ju ju ju ju ju ju
4. To effectively relay signals, cell-to-cell communication utilizes
ju ju ju ju ju ju
chemical messenger systems that:
ju ju ju ju
A) displace surface receptor proteins.
ju ju ju
B) accumulate within cell gap junctions. ju ju ju ju
C) bind to contractile microfilaments.
ju ju ju
D) release secretions into extracellular fluid.
ju ju ju ju
5. Aerobic metabolism, also known as oxidative metabolism, provides energy by:
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
,A) removing the phosphate bonds from ATP. ju ju ju ju ju
B) combining hydrogen and oxygen to form water. ju ju ju ju ju ju
C) activating pyruvate stored in the cytoplasm.
ju ju ju ju ju
D) breaking down glucose to form lactic acid.
ju ju ju ju ju ju
6. Exocytosis, the reverse of endocytosis, is important in
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju into the ju
extracellular fluid.
ju ju
A) Engulfing and ingesting fluid and proteins for transport
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
B) Killing, degrading, and dissolving harmful microorganisms
ju ju ju ju ju
C) Removing cellular debris and releasing synthesized substances
ju ju ju ju ju ju
D) Destruction of particles by lysosomal enzymes for secretion
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
7. The process responsible for generating and conducting membrane potentials is:
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
A) diffusion of current-carrying ions.ju ju ju
B) millivoltage of electrical potential. ju ju ju
C) polarization of charged particles. ju ju ju
D) ion channel neurotransmission.

8. Epithelial tissues are classified according to the shape of the cells and
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
the number of layers. Which of the following is a correctly matched
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
description and type of epithelial tissue?
ju ju ju ju ju ju
A) Simple epithelium: cells in contact with intercellular matrix; some do
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
not extend to surface
ju ju ju ju
B) Stratified epithelium: single layer of cells; all cells rest on
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
basement membrane
ju ju
C) Glandular epithelium: arise from surface epithelia and
ju ju ju ju ju ju
underlying connective tissue
ju ju ju
D) Pseudostratified epithelium: multiple layers of cells; deepest layer rests ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
on basement membrane
ju ju ju
9. Connective tissue contains fibroblasts that are responsible for:
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
A) providing a fibrous framework for capillaries.
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
B) synthesis of collagen, elastin, and reticular fibers.
ju ju ju ju ju ju
, C) forming tendons and the fascia that covers muscles.
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
D) filling spaces between tissues to keep organs in place.
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
10. Although all muscle tissue cells have some similarities, smooth muscle
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
(also known as involuntary muscle) differs by:
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
A) having dense bodies attached to actin filaments.
ju ju ju ju ju ju
B) containing sarcomeres between Z lines and M bands. ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
C) having rapid contractions and abundant cross-striations.
ju ju ju ju ju
D) contracting in response to increased intracellular calcium.
ju ju ju ju ju ju
11. Which of the following aspects of the function of the nucleus is performed
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
by ribosomal RNA (rRNA)?
ju ju ju ju
A) Copying and carrying DNA instructions for protein synthesis
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
B) Carrying amino acids to the site of protein synthesis
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
C) Providing the site where protein synthesis occurs
ju ju ju ju ju ju
D) Regulating and controlling protein synthesis ju ju ju ju
12. Breakdown and removal of foreign substances and worn-out cell parts
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
are performed by which of the following organelles?
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
A) Lysosomes
B) Golgi apparatus ju
C) Ribosomes
D) Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) ju ju
13. Impairment in the function of peroxisomes would result in:
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
A) inadequate sites for protein synthesis.
ju ju ju ju ju ju
B) an inability to transport cellular products across the cell membrane.
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
C) insufficient energy production within a cell. ju ju ju ju ju
D) accumulation of free radicals in the cytoplasm. ju ju ju ju ju ju
14. After several months of trying to conceive, a couple is undergoing fertility
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
testing. Semen analysis indicates that the mans sperm have decreased
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
motility, a finding that is thought to underlie the couples inability to
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju
become pregnant.
