Chapter “1Introduction “to “Pathophysiology
1. The “nucleus , “which “is “essential “for “function “and “survival “of “the “cell.
A) is “the “site “of “protein “synthesis
B) contains “the “genetic “code
C) transforms “cellular “energy
D) initiates “aerobic “metabolism
2. Although “energy “is “not “made “in “mitochondria, “they “are “known “as “the
“power“plants “of “the “cell “because “they:
A) contain “RNA “for “protein “synthesis.
B) utilize “glycolysis “for “oxidative “energy.
C) extract “energy “from “organic “compounds.
D) store “calcium “bonds “for “muscle “contractions.
3. Although “the “basic “structure “of “the “cell “plasma “membrane “is “formed “by “a
“lipid“bilayer, “most “of “the “specific “membrane “functions “are “carried “out “by:
A) bound “and “transmembrane “proteins.
B) complex, “long “carbohydrate “chains.
C) surface “antigens “and “hormone “receptors.
D) a “gating “system “of “selective “ion “channels.
4. To “effectively “relay “signals, “cell-to-cell “communication “utilizes
“chemical“messenger “systems “that:
A) displace “surface “receptor “proteins.
B) accumulate “within “cell “gap “junctions.
C) bind “to “contractile “microfilaments.
D) release “secretions “into “extracellular “fluid.
5. Aerobic “metabolism, “also “known “as “oxidative “metabolism, “provides “energy “by:
,A) removing “the “phosphate “bonds “from “ATP.
B) combining “hydrogen “and “oxygen “to “form “water.
C) activating “pyruvate “stored “in “the “cytoplasm.
D) breaking “down “glucose “to “form “lactic “acid.
6. Exocytosis, “the “reverse “of “endocytosis, “is “important “in into
“the“extracellular “fluid.
A) Engulfing “and “ingesting “fluid “and “proteins “for “transport
B) Killing, “degrading, “and “dissolving “harmful “microorganisms
C) Removing “cellular “debris “and “releasing “synthesized “substances
D) Destruction “of “particles “by “lysosomal “enzymes “for “secretion
7. The “process “responsible “for “generating “and “conducting “membrane “potentials “is:
A) diffusion “of “current-carrying “ions.
B) millivoltage “of “electrical “potential.
C) polarization “of “charged “particles.
D) ion “channel “neurotransmission.
8. Epithelial “tissues “are “classified “according “to “the “shape “of “the “cells “and
“the “number “of “layers. “Which “of “the “following “is “a “correctly “matched
“description“and “type “of “epithelial “tissue?
A) Simple “epithelium: “cells “in “contact “with “intercellular “matrix; “some “do
“not“extend “to “surface
B) Stratified “epithelium: “single “layer “of “cells; “all “cells “rest “on
“basement“membrane
C) Glandular “epithelium: “arise “from “surface “epithelia “and
“underlying“connective “tissue
D) Pseudostratified “epithelium: “multiple “layers “of “cells; “deepest “layer “rests
“on“basement “membrane
9. Connective “tissue “contains “fibroblasts “that “are “responsible “for:
A) providing “a “fibrous “framework “for “capillaries.
B) synthesis “of “collagen, “elastin, “and “reticular “fibers.
