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

REF: p. 2 w w
2. A nurse is instructing the staff about cellular functions. Which cellular function is the nurse
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
describing when an isolated cell absorbs oxygen and uses it to transform nutrients to
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
energy?
w
a. Metabolic absorption w
b. Communication
c. Secretion
d. Respiration
ANS: ww w D NURSINGTB.COM
The cell’s ability to absorb oxygen is referred to as respiration while its communication ability
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
involves maintenance of a steady dynamic state, metabolic absorption provides nutrition, and
w w w w w w w w w w w
secretion allows for the synthesizing of new substances.
w w w w w w w w
REF: p. 2 w w
3. A eukaryotic cell is undergoing DNA replication. In which region of the cell would most ofthe
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
genetic information be contained?
w w w w
a. Mitochondria
b. Ribosome
c. Nucleolus
d. Nucleus Cytoplasm w
ANS: C w
The region of the cell that contains genetic material, including a large amount of ribonucleic
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
acid, most of the DNA, and DNA-binding proteins, is the nucleolus, which is located
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
within the cell’s nucleus. Mitochondria is associated with cellular respiration, while
w w w w w w w w w w w
ribosomes are involved with protein manufacturing. Cytoplasm is a fluid filling that is a
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
component of the cell.
