ANSWERS ON THE END OF CHAPTER
Chapter 1. The Cell as a Unit of Health and Disease
1 The nucleus , which is essential for
function and survival of the cell.
A) is the site of protein synthesis
B) contains the genetic code
C) transforms cellular energy
D) initiates aerobic metabolism
2 Although energy is not made in mitochondria, they
are known as the power plants of the cell because
they:
A) contain RNA for protein synthesis.
B) utilize glycolysis for oxidative energy.
C) extract energy from organic compounds.
D) store calcium bonds for muscle
contractions.
3 Although the basic structure of the cell plasma
membrane is formed by a lipid bilayer, most of the
specific membrane functions are carried out by:
A) bound and transmembrane proteins.
B) complex, long carbohydrate chains.
C) surface antigens and hormone receptors.
D) a gating system of selective ion channels.
4 To effectively relay signals, cell-to-cell
communication utilizes chemical messenger
systems that:
A) displace surface receptor proteins.
B) accumulate within cell gap junctions.
C) bind to contractile microfilaments.

D) release secretions into extracellular fluid.
5 Aerobic metabolism, also known as oxidative
metabolism, provides energy by:
A) removing the phosphate bonds from ATP.
B) combining hydrogen and oxygen to
form water.
C) activating pyruvate stored in the
cytoplasm.
D) breaking down glucose to form lactic
acid.
6 Exocytosis, the reverse of endocytosis, is important
in
into the extracellular fluid.
A) Engulfing and ingesting fluid and
proteins for
transp
ort
B) Killing, degrading, and dissolving
harmful microorganisms
C) Removing cellular debris and releasing
synthesized
substances
D) Destruction of particles by lysosomal
enzymes for secretion
7 The process responsible for generating and
conducting membrane potentials is:
A) diffusion of current-carrying ions.
B) millivoltage of electrical potential.
C) polarization of charged particles.
D) ion channel neurotransmission.
