MULTIPLE CHOICE v




1. A student is observing a cell under the microscope. It is observed to have supercoiled DNA with
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




histones. Which of the following would also be observed by the student?
v v v v v v v v v v v v




a. A single circular chromosome
v v v




b. A nucleus v




c. Free-floating nuclear material v v




d. No organelles v




ANS: B v




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




nucleus; thus, the nucleus should be observed. A single circular chromosome called a
v v v v v v v v v v v v v




prokaryote contains free-floating nuclear material but has no organelles.
v v v v v v v v v




REF: p. 2 v v




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




v describing when an isolated cell absorbs oxygen and uses it to transform nutrients to energy?
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




a. Metabolic absorption v




b. Communication
c. Secretion
d. Respiration
ANS: D v NURSINGTB.COM
The cell’s ability to absorb oxygen is referred to as respiration while its communication ability
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




involves maintenance of a steady dynamic state, metabolic absorption provides nutrition, and
v v v v v v v v v v v




secretion allows for the synthesizing of new substances.
v v v v v v v v




REF: p. 2 v v




3. A eukaryotic cell is undergoing DNA replication. In which region of the cell would most of the
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




genetic information be contained?
v v v v




a. Mitochondria
b. Ribosome
c. Nucleolus
d. Nucleus Cytoplasm v




ANS: C v




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




most of the DNA, and DNA-binding proteins, is the nucleolus, which is located within the cell’s
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




nucleus. Mitochondria is associated with cellular respiration, while ribosomes are involved with
v v v v v v v v v v v v




protein manufacturing. Cytoplasm is a fluid filling that is a component of the cell.
