1. At a generalized level, all cells are comprised of what?
Answer choices:
A. Macromolecules
B. Organelles
C. Organisms
D. Tissues
Correct Answer: A. Macromolecules
Expert Rationale: Cells are constructed primarily from macromolecules—proteins, lipids, nucleic acids,
and polysaccharides—that collectively perform structural and catalytic functions. Partial answers listing only
some macromolecule classes are incomplete.
---
2. True/False. A virus is classified as a microbe:
Correct Answer: True
Expert Rationale: While viruses are not living organisms and do not meet the criteria of microorganisms,
they are included within the broad category of microbes. Microbes encompass all microscopic entities
including bacteria, archaea, protists, fungi, and viruses, the latter due to their biological relevance and
impact.

3. True or False: The smallest biological unit of life is the molecule:
Correct Answer: False
Expert Rationale: Molecules, such as proteins and nucleic acids, are chemical structures but do not
independently exhibit characteristics of life. The cell is the smallest unit capable of sustaining life processes
like metabolism, growth, and reproduction.
