ed DNA with histones. Which of the following would also be observed by the student?
yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb




a. A single circular chromosome
yb yb yb




b. A nucleus yb




c. Free-floating nuclear material yb yb




d. No organelles yb




ANS: B yb




The cell described is a eukaryotic cell, so it has histones and a supercoiled DNA within its n

ucleus; thus, the nucleus should be observed. A single circular chromosome is characteristic of
yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb y


prokaryotic cells, which do not have histones. Free-

s. Eukaryotic cells have membrane-

2. A nurse is instructing the staff about cellular functions. Which cellular function
yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb y


is the nurse describing when an isolated cell absorbs oxygen and uses it to transform
b yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb


nutrients to energy? yb yb




a. Metabolic absorption yb




b. Communication
c. Secretion
d. Respiration

ANS: D yb




The ability of the cell to absorb oxygen refers to the cells function of respiration. The ability
yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb


of the cell to function within a society of cells refers to its function of communication. The

ld most of the genetic information be contained?
yb yb yb yb yb yb yb




a. Mitochondria
b. Ribosome

ANS: C yb




The region of the cell that contains genetic material, including a large amount of ribonucleic

acid, most of the DNA, and DNA-
yb yb yb yb yb yb


binding proteins, is the nucleolus. The mitochondria is the site of cellular respiration. The ribo

somes are involved in the manufacturing of proteins within the cell. The nucleus contains the
yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb yb y


nucleolus, and it is the nucleolus that contains genetic material.

er?

a. Peripheral membrane proteins yb yb

ANS: B yb




Integral membrane proteins float freely in the fluid lipid bilayer. Peripheral membrane proteins
