Multiple Choice
1. A Student Is Observing a Cell Under The Microscope. It Is Observed To Have
Supercoiled DNA With Histones. Which Of The Following Would Also Be Observed By
The Student?
a. A Single Circular Chromosome
b. A Nucleus
c. Free-Floating Nuclear Material
d. No Organelles
Ans: B
The Cell Described Is a Eukaryotic Cell, So It Has Histones And a Supercoiled DNA Within Its
Nucleus; Thus, The Nucleus Should Be Observed. A Single Circular Chromosome Is
Characteristic Of Prokaryotic Cells, Which Do Not Have Histones. Free-Floating Nuclear
Material Describes a Prokaryotic Cell, Which Would Not Have a Distinct Nucleus. Eukaryotic
Cells Have Membrane- Bound Cellular Components Called Organelles. No Organelles Describe
a Prokaryotic Cell.
2. A Nurse Is Instructing The Staff About Cellular Functions. Which Cellular
Function Is The Nurse Describing When An Isolated Cell Absorbs Oxygen And Uses It
To Transform
Nutrients To Energy?
a. Metabolic Absorption
b. Communication
c. Secretion
d. Respiration
Ans: D
The Ability Of The Cell To Absorb Oxygen Refers To The Cells Function Of Respiration. The
Ability Of The Cell To Function Within a Society Of Cells Refers To Its Function Of
Communication. The Ability Of The Cell To Take In Nutrients Refers To The Cells Function
Of Metabolic Absorption.The Ability Of The Cell To Synthesize New Substances And Secrete
3
, A+
These Elsewhere Refers To The Cells Function Of Secretion.
