Which component of the cell produces hydrogen peroxide
(H2O2) by using oxygen to remove hydrogen atoms from
specific substrates in an oxidative reaction?
A) lysosomes
B) peroxisomes
C) ribosomes
D) oxyhydrosomes - Answer-Ans: B- peroxisomes
Contain organelles and complex internal membranes -
Answer-The difference between eukaryotes and
prokaryotes is that eukaryotes:
a. all of these answers are correct
b. are smaller in size
c. contain organelles
d. have no nuclear membrane
What is a consequence of plasma membrane damage to
the mitochondria?
A) enzymatic digestion halts deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)
synthese
,3|Page
B) influx of calcium ions halts adenosine triphosphate
(ATP) production
C) edema from an influx in sodium causes a reduction in
ATP production
D) potassium shifts out of the mitochondria, which
destroys the infrastructure - Answer-Ans: B- influx of
calcium ions halts adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
production
Packages protein for secretion to the outside of the cell -
Answer-Which of the following is function of Golgi?
a. Packages protein for secretion to the outside of the cell
b. Produces ATP for cell function
c. Contains hydrolytic enzymes
d. Is the site of protein synthesis in a cell
Which statement is a description of one of the
characteristics of apoptosis?
A) apoptosis involves programmed cell death of scattered
singel cells
, 4|Page
B) apoptosis is characterized by the swelling of the
nucleus and the cytoplasm
C) apoptosis involves unpredictable patterns of cell death
D) apoptosis results in benign malignancies - Answer-Ans:
A- apoptosis involves programmed cell death of scattered
singel cells
During cell injury caused by hypoxia, sodium and water
move into the cell because:
A) during cell injury cause by hypoxia, sodium and water
move into the cell because:
B) the pump that transports sodium out of the cell cannot
function because of a decrease in adenosine triphosphate
(ATP) levels
C) the osmotic pressure is increased, which pulls
additional sodium across the cell membrane
D) oxygen is not available to bind with sodium to maintain
it outside of the cell - Answer-Ans: C- the osmotic pressure
is increased, which pulls additional sodium across the cell
membrane
