MULTIPLE CHOICE hj




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



DNA with histones. Which of the following would also be observed by the student?
hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj




a. A single circular chromosome
hj hj hj




b. A nucleus hj




c. Free-floating nuclear material hj hj




d. No organelles hj




ANS: B hj




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



; thus, the nucleus should be observed. A single circular chromosome is characteristic of prokaryoti
hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj



c cells, which do not have histones. Free-
hj hj hj hj hj hj hj



floating nuclear material describes a prokaryotic cell, which would not have a distinct nucleus. Eu
hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj



karyotic cells have membrane- hj hj hj



bound cellular components called organelles. No organelles describe a prokaryotic cell.

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



he nurse describing when an isolated cell absorbs oxygen and uses it to transform

nutrients to energy? hj hj




a. Metabolic absorption hj




b. Communication
c. Secretion
d. Respiration

ANS: D hj




The ability of the cell to absorb oxygen refers to the cells function of respiration. The ability of th

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




most of the genetic information be contained?
hj hj hj hj hj hj




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

ANS: C hj




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



most of the DNA, and DNA-
hj hj hj hj hj



binding proteins, is the nucleolus. The mitochondria is the site of cellular respiration. The ribosom

es are involved in the manufacturing of proteins within the cell. The nucleus contains the nucleolu
hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj



s, and it is the nucleolus that contains genetic material.

4. The fluid- hj



mosaic model for biologic membranes describes membrane behavior. According to this
hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj



model, which of the following float singly or as aggregates in the fluid lipid bilayer?
hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj




a. Peripheral membrane proteins hj hj




b. Integral membrane proteins hj hj




c. Glycoproteins
d. Cell adhesion molecules hj hj




ANS: B hj




Integral membrane proteins float freely in the fluid lipid bilayer. Peripheral membrane proteins are
hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj



not embedded in the layer, but reside at the surface. Glycoproteins act as cell surface markers. Cell
hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj hj



adhesion molecules are on the outside of the membrane and allow cells to hook together.
