MULTIPLE CHOICE j
1. A student is observing a cell under the microscope. It is observed to have supercoiled DNA
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j
with histones. Which of the following would also be observed by the student?
j j j j j j j j j j j j j
a. A single circular chromosome
j j j
b. A nucleus j
c. Free-floating nuclear material j j
d. No organelles j
ANS: B j
The cell described is a eukaryotic cell, so it has histones and a supercoiled DNA within its
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j
nucleus; thus, the nucleus should be observed. A single circular chromosome called a
j j j j j j j j j j j j j
prokaryote contains free-floating nuclear material but has no organelles.

2. A nurse is instructing the staff about cellular functions. Which cellular function is the nurse
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j
describing when an isolated cell absorbs oxygen and uses it to transform nutrients to energy?
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j
a. Metabolic absorption j
b. Communication
c. Secretion
d. Respiration
ANS: D j NURSINGTB.COM
The cell’s ability to absorb oxygen is referred to as respiration while its communication ability
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j
involves maintenance of a steady dynamic state, metabolic absorption provides nutrition, and
j j j j j j j j j j j
secretion allows for the synthesizing of new substances.

REF: p. 2 j j
3. A eukaryotic cell is undergoing DNA replication. In which region of the cell would most ofthe
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j
j genetic information be contained? j j j
a. Mitochondria
b. Ribosome
c. Nucleolus
d. Nucleus Cytoplasm j
ANS: C j
The region of the cell that contains genetic material, including a large amount of ribonucleic
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j
acid, most of the DNA, and DNA-binding proteins, is the nucleolus, which is located within
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j
the cell’s nucleus. Mitochondria is associated with cellular respiration, while ribosomes are
j j j j j j j j j j j j
involved with protein manufacturing. Cytoplasm is a fluid filling that is a component of the
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j
cell.
