MULTIPLE CHOICE
Which statement best describes the cellular function of metabolic absorption?
Cells can produce proteins. c. Cells can take in and use nutrients.
Cells can secrete digestive enzymes. d. Cells can synthesize fats.
ANS: C
In metabolic absorption, all cells take in and use nutrients and other substances from theirsurroundings. The remaining options
are not inclusive in their descriptions of cellular metabolic absorption.

Most of a cell’s genetic information, including RNA and DNA, is contained in the:
Mitochondria c. Nucleolus
Ribosome d. Lysosome
ANS: C
The nucleus contains the nucleolus, a small dense structure composed largely of RNA, most of the cellular DNA, and the DNA-
binding proteins, such as the histones, which regulate its activity. The other options do not contain most of a cell’s genetic
information.

Which component of the cell prodNuUceRsSIhNyGdTroBg.CeO
nMperoxide (H2O2) by using oxygen to remove hydrogen atoms from
specific substrates in an oxidative reaction?
Lysosomes c. Ribosomes
Peroxisomes d. Oxyhydrosomes
ANS: B
Peroxisomes are so named because they usually contain enzymes that use oxygen to remove hydrogen atoms from specific
substrates in an oxidative reaction that produces H2O2, which is a powerful oxidant and potentially destructive if it accumulates
or escapes from peroxisomes. Ribosomes are RNA-protein complexes (nucleoproteins) that are synthesized in the nucleolus and
secreted into the cytoplasm through pores in the nuclear envelope called nuclear pore complexes. Lysosomes are saclike
structures that originate from the Golgi complex and contain more than 40 digestive enzymes called hydrolases, which catalyze
bonds in proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and carbohydrates. Oxyhydrosomesare involved in enzyme production.

Which cell component is capable of cellular autodigestion when it is released during cellinjury?
Ribosome c. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum
Golgi complex d. Lysosomes
ANS: D
