MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. Although the basic structure of the cell plasm a 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
ANSWER: A
Feedback:
The functions of plasma membrane depend on the presence of proteins that are
bound in the lipid bilayer and some that have the ability to pass freely into and
out of the cell. Carbohydrate chains form a cell coat that surrounds the
membrane and that contain surface antigens and surface hormone receptors.
Some ion channels are gated and open only when the membrane potential
changes significantly.

2. Which describes the function of the nucleus?
A) it is basically the site of protein synthesis in the body.
B) it contains the genetic code for the individual.
C) it is the transformer of cellular energy.
D) it initiates the process of aerobic metabolism.
ANSWER: B
Feedback:
The nucleus contains DNA, which contains the genetic code that contains the
information that controls cells. Ribosomes synthesize protein. Mitochondria
transform organic compounds into cellular energy. Mitochondria require oxygen

, for aerobic metabolism, using hydrogen and carbon combined with oxygen
molecules to form carbon dioxide and water as energy is released.

3. 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
ANSWER: C
Feedback:
There are three types of ribonucleic acid (messenger RNA, ribosomal RNA, and
transfer RNA) that move to the cytoplasm and carry out the actual synthesis of
proteins. Messenger RNA (MRNA) copies and carries the DNA instructions for
protein synthesis to the cytoplasm; ribosomal RNA (RRNA) is the site of protein
synthesis; and transfer RNA (TRNA) transports amino acids to the site of protein
synthesis for incorporation into the protein being synthesized.

4. Which accurately explains the functions of the organelle’s lysosomes? They:
A) are sacs filled with enzymes that breakdown and remove foreign substances
and worn-out cell parts
B) function in association with the endoplasmic reticulum to modify protein end
products and package them into secretory granules or vesicles
C) are small particles of nucleoproteins that are involved in the synthesis of
proteins that remain in the cell as cytoplasmic structural or function al elements
D) are a dynamic system of interconnected membranous tubes that functions as a
tubular communication system for transporting various substances from one part
of the cell to another
ANSWER: A
Feedback:
Lysosomes are sacs that are filled with hydrolyti c enzymes that aid in the
processing and removal of unwanted substances within the cytoplasm. The golgi
apparatus functions in association with the endoplasmic reticulum to modify and
package substances in preparation for secretion, whereas ribosomes are s mall
particles of nucleoproteins that are involved in the synthesis of proteins. The er
is a tubular communication system for transporting various substances from one
part of the cell to another.
