Chapter5“1Introduction5“to5“Pathophysiology
1. The5“nucleus
,5“which5“is5“essential5“for5“function5“and5“survival5“of5“the5“cell.
A) is5“the5“site5“of5“protein5“synthesis
B) contains5“the5“genetic5“code
C) transforms5“cellular5“energy
D) initiates5“aerobic5“metabolism
2. Although5“energy5“is5“not5“made5“in5“mitochondria,5“they5“are5“known5“as5“the5“
power5“plants5“of5“the5“cell5“because5“they:
A) contain5“RNA5“for5“protein5“synthesis.
B) utilize5“glycolysis5“for5“oxidative5“energy.
C) extract5“energy5“from5“organic5“compounds.
D) store5“calcium5“bonds5“for5“muscle5“contractions.
3. Although5“the5“basic5“structure5“of5“the5“cell5“plasma5“membrane5“is5“formed5“by5“
a5“lipid5“bilayer,5“most5“of5“the5“specific5“membrane5“functions5“are5“carried5“out5“
by:
A) bound5“and5“transmembrane5“proteins.
B) complex,5“long5“carbohydrate5“chains.
C) surface5“antigens5“and5“hormone5“receptors.
D) a5“gating5“system5“of5“selective5“ion5“channels.
4. To5“effectively5“relay5“signals,5“cell-to-
cell5“communication5“utilizes5“chemical5“messenger5“systems5“that:
A) displace5“surface5“receptor5“proteins.
B) accumulate5“within5“cell5“gap5“junctions.
C) bind5“to5“contractile5“microfilaments.
D) release5“secretions5“into5“extracellular5“fluid.
5. Aerobic5“metabolism,5“also5“known5“as5“oxidative5“metabolism,5“provides5“energy5“by
:
,A) removing5“the5“phosphate5“bonds5“from5“ATP.
B) combining5“hydrogen5“and5“oxygen5“to5“form5“water.
C) activating5“pyruvate5“stored5“in5“the5“cytoplasm.
D) breaking5“down5“glucose5“to5“form5“lactic5“acid.
6. Exocytosis,5“the5“reverse5“of5“endocytosis,5“is5“important5“in
into5“the5“extracellular5“fluid.
A) Engulfing5“and5“ingesting5“fluid5“and5“proteins5“for5“transport
B) Killing,5“degrading,5“and5“dissolving5“harmful5“microorganisms
C) Removing5“cellular5“debris5“and5“releasing5“synthesized5“substances
D) Destruction5“of5“particles5“by5“lysosomal5“enzymes5“for5“secretion
7. The5“process5“responsible5“for5“generating5“and5“conducting5“membrane5“potentials5“is
:
A) diffusion5“of5“current-carrying5“ions.
B) millivoltage5“of5“electrical5“potential.
C) polarization5“of5“charged5“particles.
D) ion5“channel5“neurotransmission.
8. Epithelial5“tissues5“are5“classified5“according5“to5“the5“shape5“of5“the5“cells5“an
d5“the5“number5“of5“layers.5“Which5“of5“the5“following5“is5“a5“correctly5“matche
d5“description5“and5“type5“of5“epithelial5“tissue?
A) Simple5“epithelium:5“cells5“in5“contact5“with5“intercellular5“matrix;5“some5“d
o5“not5“extend5“to5“surface
B) Stratified5“epithelium:5“single5“layer5“of5“cells;5“all5“cells5“rest5“on5“bas
ement5“membrane
C) Glandular5“epithelium:5“arise5“from5“surface5“epithelia5“and5“underl
ying5“connective5“tissue
D) Pseudostratified5“epithelium:5“multiple5“layers5“of5“cells;5“deepest5“layer5“rest
s5“on5“basement5“membrane
9. Connective5“tissue5“contains5“fibroblasts5“that5“are5“responsible5“for:
A) providing5“a5“fibrous5“framework5“for5“capillaries.
B) synthesis5“of5“collagen,5“elastin,5“and5“reticular5“fibers.
, C) forming5“tendons5“and5“the5“fascia5“that5“covers5“muscles.
D) filling5“spaces5“between5“tissues5“to5“keep5“organs5“in5“place.
10. Although5“all5“muscle5“tissue5“cells5“have5“some5“similarities,5“smooth5“muscle5“
(also5“known5“as5“involuntary5“muscle)5“differs5“by:
A) having5“dense5“bodies5“attached5“to5“actin5“filaments.
B) containing5“sarcomeres5“between5“Z5“lines5“and5“M5“bands.
C) having5“rapid5“contractions5“and5“abundant5“cross-striations.
D) contracting5“in5“response5“to5“increased5“intracellular5“calcium.
11. Which5“of5“the5“following5“aspects5“of5“the5“function5“of5“the5“nucleus5“is5“perfor
med5“by5“ribosomal5“RNA5“(rRNA)?
