Chapter’.1Introduction’.to’.Pathophysiology
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’.pow
er’.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’.li
pid’.bilayer,’.most’.of’.the’.specific’.membrane’.functions’.are’.carried’.out’.by:

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:

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’.transport
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.
8. Epithelial’.tissues’.are’.classified’.according’.to’.the’.shape’.of’.the’.cells’.and’.th
e’.number’.of’.layers.’.Which’.of’.the’.following’.is’.a’.correctly’.matched’.descrip
tion’.and’.type’.of’.epithelial’.tissue?
A) Simple’.epithelium:’.cells’.in’.contact’.with’.intercellular’.matrix;’.some’.do’.n
ot’.extend’.to’.surface
B) Stratified’.epithelium:’.single’.layer’.of’.cells;’.all’.cells’.rest’.on’.baseme
nt’.membrane
C) Glandular’.epithelium:’.arise’.from’.surface’.epithelia’.and’.underlyin
g’.connective’.tissue
D) Pseudostratified’.epithelium:’.multiple’.layers’.of’.cells;’.deepest’.layer’.rests’.
on’.basement’.membrane
9. Connective’.tissue’.contains’.fibroblasts’.that’.are’.responsible’.for:
A) providing’.a’.fibrous’.framework’.for’.capillaries.
B) synthesis’.of’.collagen,’.elastin,’.and’.reticular’.fibers.
, C) forming’.tendons’.and’.the’.fascia’.that’.covers’.muscles.
D) filling’.spaces’.between’.tissues’.to’.keep’.organs’.in’.place.
10. Although’.all’.muscle’.tissue’.cells’.have’.some’.similarities,’.smooth’.muscle’.(al
so’.known’.as’.involuntary’.muscle)’.differs’.by:
A) having’.dense’.bodies’.attached’.to’.actin’.filaments.
B) containing’.sarcomeres’.between’.Z’.lines’.and’.M’.bands.
C) having’.rapid’.contractions’.and’.abundant’.cross-striations.
D) contracting’.in’.response’.to’.increased’.intracellular’.calcium.
11. Which’.of’.the’.following’.aspects’.of’.the’.function’.of’.the’.nucleus’.is’.performed’.
by’.ribosomal’.RNA’.(rRNA)?
A) Copying’.and’.carrying’.DNA’.instructions’.for’.protein’.synthesis
B) Carrying’.amino’.acids’.to’.the’.site’.of’.protein’.synthesis
C) Providing’.the’.site’.where’.protein’.synthesis’.occurs
D) Regulating’.and’.controlling’.protein’.synthesis
12. Breakdown’.and’.removal’.of’.foreign’.substances’.and’.worn-
out’.cell’.parts’.are’.performed’.by’.which’.of’.the’.following’.organelles?
A) Lysosomes
B) Golgi’.apparatus
C) Ribosomes
D) Endoplasmic’.reticulum’.(ER)
13. Impairment’.in’.the’.function’.of’.peroxisomes’.would’.result’.in:
A) inadequate’.sites’.for’.protein’.synthesis.
B) an’.inability’.to’.transport’.cellular’.products’.across’.the’.cell’.membrane.
C) insufficient’.energy’.production’.within’.a’.cell.
D) accumulation’.of’.free’.radicals’.in’.the’.cytoplasm.
14. After’.several’.months’.of’.trying’.to’.conceive,’.a’.couple’.is’.undergoing’.fertility’.
