MULTIPLE CHOICE zl




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

h histones. Which of the following would also be observed by the student?
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl




a. A single circular chromosome
zl zl zl




b. A nucleus zl




c. Free-floating nuclear material zl zl




d. No organelles zl




ANS: B zl




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




lthus, the nucleus should be observed.
zl zl zl zl zl




A single circular chromosome is characteristic of prokaryotic cells, which do not have histones.
zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl




Free-
floating nuclear material describes a prokaryotic cell, which would not have a distinct nucleus.

zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl zl




a. Metabolic absorption zl




b. Communication
c. Secretion
d. Respiration

, ANS: D zl




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

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




zl genetic information be contained?
zl zl zl




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


ANS: C zl




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




most of the DNA, and DNA-binding proteins, is the nucleolus.
