Question1 — (energyproduction) ty ty ty ty




Whichorganelle is theprimary site ofaerobicATP productionvia oxidative phosphoryl

ation?
A. Smoothendoplasmic reticulum ty ty




B. Mitochondrion
C. Ribosome
D. Lysosome

• Ais incorrect —
ty ty ty




smoothER is involved in lipid synthesis and detoxification, not

major ATP production. ty ty




• Cis incorrect — ribosomessynthesize proteins.

• Disincorrect—

ATP.


Question2 — Membranetransport ty ty ty ty




Apatient receives an IVdrugthat must enter cells against aconcentrationgradient. Whic

A. Simplediffusion throughthelipid bilayer ty ty ty ty ty




B. Facilitated diffusionthroughachannelprotein ty ty ty ty ty




C. Primary activetransportusingATP(e.g.,Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase) ty ty ty ty ty ty




D. Osmosis
Correctanswer:C. Primary active transport using ATP (e.g., Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase) Rationale:
ty ty ty ty ty ty t y ty ty ty




Movement againstaconcentrationgradient requires energy input;primary active
ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty




transportdirectly uses ATP (oran ATPase)to pump ions ormolecules.
ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty




• A and B are passive (do notmove substancesuphill).

sion when no energy is required and transportfollows the concentration gradient.
ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty




• Ais incorrect — glucoseis polar andcannot passbysimple diffusion.
ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty




• C(Na⁺/glucose cotransport)is usedin someepithelia (e.g.,intestinal/renal) an
ty ty ty ty ty ty ty t y ty ty




d is secondaryactive, notthepredominant mechanism in resting muscle.
ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty




• Dis incorrect —
ty ty ty




endocytosisis notthe routine mechanism forglucose uptake.

Question4 — Osmotic effects onred bloodcells ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty




Apatient’sred bloodcells placedin ahypertonic IVsolution will:
ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty




A. Swellandpotentially lyse(hemolysis) ty ty ty ty




B. Shrink(crenate) as water leaves thecell ty ty ty ty ty ty




C. Remain unchanged becauseRBC membranes are impermeable towater
ty ty ty ty t y ty t y ty




D. Gainsodiumvia activetransportandmaintain size
ty ty ty ty ty ty t y




Correctanswer:B. Shrink (crenate) as waterleaves the cell Rationale
ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty t y ty




:
Inahypertonic environment, extracellular osmolarity is higher than intracellular;
ty ty ty t y t y ty ty ty ty




watermoves outofthe cell byosmosis,causingcell shrinkage (crenation).
ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty

, • Ais what happensin hypotonic solutions (water moves in).
ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty




• Cis false — water crossesmembranes rapidly (aquaporins).
ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty




• Disincorrect — acutesodiumpumping cannotprevent osmoticwater shifts.

Question5 — Cellular adaptation(definitions)
ty ty ty ty ty




Whichtermbestdescribesan increase in cellsize (e.g.,cardiac myocytesenlarging from
ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty




chronic pressure overload)?
ty ty




A. Hyperplasia
B. Atrophy
C. Hypertrophy
D. Metaplasia
Correctanswer:C. Hypertrophy Rationale:
ty ty ty ty




Hypertrophy=increasein cell size (oftenwith increased functional capacity). For
ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty




example, cardiacmyocytehypertrophyoccurswith chronic increased workload.
ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty




• A(hyperplasia) = increasein cellnumber.
ty ty ty ty ty ty




• B(atrophy)= decreasein cell size and/ornumber.
ty ty ty ty t y ty ty ty




• D(metaplasia) =replacement ofoneadult cell typewith another (adaptive cha

nge).


Question6 — Apoptosisvs necrosis ty ty ty ty ty




Which statement correctly distinguishes apoptosisfromnecrosis?
ty t y ty t y ty ty




A. Apoptosisisaninflammatory, uncontrolled celldeath; necrosisis programmed an

d energy-dependent.
ty




B. Apoptosisisenergy-dependent, orderly, and typically non-ty ty ty ty ty t y




inflammatory; necrosis causes membrane rupture and inflammation. ty ty ty t y ty ty




C. Apoptosisonly occursin responseto infection; necrosis only occurswith isc

hemia.
D. Apoptosisalways leads totissuescarring; necrosisnever does. ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty
