Chapter 1. The Cell as a Unit of Health and Disease
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) transformscellularenergy
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 RNAfor protein synthesis.
B) utilizeglycolysis foroxidative energy.
C) extractenergy fromorganic compounds.
D) storecalcium bonds for muscle contractions.
3 Although the basic structure of the cell plasma membrane is fo
rmed by a lipid bilayer, most of the specific membrane functio
ns are carried out by:
A) bound andtransmembraneproteins.
B) complex, long carbohydrate chains.
C) surface antigens andhormone receptors.
D) a gating system of selective ion channels.
4 To effectively relay signals, cell-to-
cell communication utilizes chemical messenger systems th
at:

, A) displace surfacereceptor proteins.
B) accumulate within cell gap junctions.
C) bind to contractile microfilaments.
D) releasesecretions intoextracellularfluid.
5 Aerobic metabolism, also known as oxidative metabolism, p
rovides energy by:
A) removingthephosphatebondsfromATP.
B) combining hydrogen and oxygen to form wate
r.
C) activating pyruvate stored in the cytoplasm.
D) breaking down glucose to formlactic acid.
6 Exocytosis, the reverse of endocytosis, is important in
into the extracellular fluid.
A) Engulfing and ingesting fluid and proteins for tran

sport
B) Killing, degrading, and dissolving harmful microor
ganisms
C) Removingcellular debris and releasing synthesize

d substances
D) Destruction of particles by lysosomal enzymes f
or secretion
7 The process responsible for generating and conducting me
mbrane potentials is:
A) diffusion ofcurrent-carryingions.
B) millivoltage of electrical potential.
C) polarization of charged particles.
D) ion channel neurotransmission.
