1. Which level of organization in the body includes atoms and molecules?
A. Organ
B. Cellular
C. Chemical
D. Tissue
The chemical level is the simplest level of organization, consisting of
atoms and molecules.
2. The diaphragm separates which two body cavities?
A. Cranial and spinal
B. Thoracic and abdominal
, C. Pelvic and abdominal
D. Pleural and pericardial
The diaphragm is a muscular structure that separates the thoracic
cavity from the abdominal cavity.
3. Which type of feedback mechanism enhances the original stimulus?
A. Negative feedback
B. Neutral feedback
C. Positive feedback
D. Receptor feedback
Positive feedback amplifies or enhances the change that is occurring,
such as in childbirth or blood clotting.
4. The cell membrane is primarily composed of:
A. Carbohydrates and nucleic acids
B. Proteins and water
C. Phospholipids and proteins
D. DNA and ribosomes
The plasma membrane is mainly made up of a phospholipid bilayer
with embedded proteins.
5. Which organelle is the site of ATP production?
A. Ribosome
B. Golgi apparatus
C. Mitochondrion
D. Nucleus
, Mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cell, where cellular
respiration occurs and ATP is produced.
6. The process by which a cell engulfs large particles is called:
A. Osmosis
B. Phagocytosis
C. Exocytosis
D. Active transport
Phagocytosis is a form of endocytosis where a cell engulfs solid
particles using vesicles.
7. DNA is located in the:
A. Nucleus
B. Golgi apparatus
C. Ribosome
D. Smooth ER
DNA is stored and transcribed in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells.
8. The four main tissue types include:
A. Skeletal, cardiac, smooth, nervous
B. Connective, smooth, nervous, epithelial
C. Epithelial, connective, muscle, nervous
D. Muscular, epithelial, cartilage, adipose
The four basic tissue types are epithelial, connective, muscle, and
nervous tissues.
