,1. What is a free radical?:
Answer A molecule that is unstable and highly reactive because it contains unpaired electrons. To
stabilize, it gives up or takes a electron making it capable of injurious chemical bond formations with proteins,
lipids, or carbs
2. what plays a major role in the initiation and progression of disease?:
Answer free radicals
3. What is the Golgi apparatus (complex)?:
Answer a network of flatten, smooth membranes and vesicles frequently located near the nucleus of the
cell
4. What does the Golgi apparatus do?:
Answer takes proteins from the ER and processes/packages them into small membrane-bound vesicles
called "secretory vesicles, and refines and directs traflc in the cell
5. What are lysosomes and what do they do?:
Answer maintain cellular health by removal of toxic cellular components, removal of useless organelles,
termination of signal transduction, and signals cellular adaption
6. How does aging affect lysosomes?:
Answer leads to progressive loss of lysosomal eflciency which declines the regenerative capacity of
organs and tissue

, 7. Apoptosis:
Answer A programmed cell death that is regulated or programmed. Cellular self-destruction for elimination or
unwanted cell populations
8. Necrosis:
Answer Rapid loss of the plasma membrane structure, organelle swelling, mitochondria dysfunction
9. What is the #1 cause of cellular injury leading to necrosis (especially
the kidney and heart):
Answer hypoxia
10. What is the #1 cause of hypoxia?: Answer ischemia
11. Main component of a cell: Answer nucleus
12. What does the nucleus contain?: Answer nucleolus
13. What is the nucleolus composed of?:
Answer RNA, most of cellular DNA, DNA binding proteins, and histones
14. Why are histone important?:
Answer histones bind to DNA and fold it into chromosomes (chromatin) which is essential for cell
division
15. What are ribosomes?:
mailto:https://www.stuvia.com/user/Wisdoms
, Answer RNA-protein complexes (nucleoproteins) that are synthesized in the nucleolus and secreted into
the cytoplasm through pores in the nuclear envelope called nuclear pore complexes (NPCs)
16. Where can ribosomes be found?: Answer cytoplasm and rough ER
17. what are ribosomes chief function?: Answer provides sits for cellular protein synthesis
18. What functions do lysosomal components integrate?:
Answer nutrient abundance, energy levels, and cell stressors and will translate them into instructions
that regulate cellular metabolism toward either proliferation or inactivity
19. What is mitochondria responsible for?: Answer cellular respiration, cellular metabolism ,
and energy production
20. What does the inner membrane of mitochondria contain?:
Answer enzymes of the respiratory chain and are essential to the process of oxidative phosphorylation that
generates most of the cell's ATP
