CHAPTER 01: CELLULAR BIOLOGY
MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. A Student Is Observing A Cell Under The Microscope. It Is Observed To Have Supercoiled DNA
With Histones. Which Of The Following Would Also Be Observed By The Student?
A. A Single Circular Chromosome
B. A Nucleus
C. Free-Floating Nuclear Material
D. No Organelles
CORRECT ANS>>B
The Cell Described Is A Eukaryotic Cell, So It Has Histones And A Supercoiled DNA Within Its Nucleus;
Thus, The Nucleus Should Be Observed. A Single Circular Chromosome Called A 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
Describing When An Isolated Cell Absorbs Oxygen And Uses It To Transform Nutrients To Energy?
A. Metabolic Absorption
B. Communication
C. Secretion
D. Respiration
CORRECT ANS>>D
The Cell’s Ability To Absorb Oxygen Is Referred To As Respiration While Its Communication Ability
Involves Maintenance Of A Steadny Dynamic State, Metabolic Absorption Provides Nutrition, And
Secretion Allows For The Synthesizing Of New Substances.
3. A Eukaryotic Cell Is Undergoing DNA Replication. In Which Region Of The Cell Would Most Of
The Genetic Information Be Contained?
A. Mitochondria
B. Ribosome
