MULTIPLE CHOICE c
1. A student is observing a cell under the microscope. It is observed to have supercoiled DNA with
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c
histones. Which of the following would also be observed by the student?
c c c c c c c c c c c c
a. A single circular chromosome c c c
b. A nucleus c
c. Free-floating nuclear material c c
d. No organelles c
ANS: B c
The cell described is a eukaryotic cell, so it has histones and a supercoiled DNAwithin its nucleus;
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c
thus, the nucleus should be observed. A single circular chromosome called a prokaryote contains
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c
free-floating nuclear material but has no organelles.

2. A nurse is instructing the staff about cellular functions. Which cellular function is the nurse
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c
cdescribing when an isolated cell absorbs oxygen and uses it to transform nutrients to energy?
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c
a. Metabolic absorption c
b. Communication
c. Secretion
d. Respiration
ANS: D c cNURSINGTB.COM
The cell’s ability to absorb oxygen is referred to as respiration while its communication ability
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c
involves maintenance of a steadydynamic state, metabolic absorption provides nutrition, and
c c c c c c c c c c c
c secretion allows for the synthesizing of new substances. c c c c c c c
REF: p. 2 cc c
3. A eukaryotic cell is undergoing DNA replication. In which region ofthe cell would most of the
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c
c genetic information be contained? c c c
a. Mitochondria
b. Ribosome
c. Nucleolus
d. Nucleus Cytoplasm c
ANS: C c
The region of the cell that contains genetic material, including a large amount of ribonucleic acid,
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c
most of the DNA, and DNA-binding proteins, is the nucleolus, which is located within the cell’s
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c
nucleus. Mitochondria is associated with cellular respiration, while ribosomes are involved with
c c c c c c c c c c c c
protein manufacturing. Cytoplasm is a fluid filling that is a component of the cell.
