Bootcamp Quiz 2: Cells and Homeostasis

Which molecule would require the use of energy in order to be brought into the cell?The diagram below represents a cell and some molecules in its environment. Which molecule would require the use of energy in order to be brought into the cell?  

• 1
• 2
• 3
• 4

One possible conclusion that can be drawn about the activity of these two cells is that 

• (1) more active transport occurs in cell B than in cell A 
• (2) more active transport occurs in cell A than in cell B 
• (3) cell B uses some of the extra mitochondria to make food 
• (4) cell A is a plant cell since it has a cell wall

A photograph of human cells as seen with a compound light microscope is shown below. A cell structure is labeled A. Structure A is most likely a

•  (1) mitochondrion that synthesizes food for the cell
•  (2) nucleus that is the site of food storage 
•  (3) mitochondrion that absorbs energy from the Sun 
•  (4) nucleus that is responsible for the storage of information

The arrows represent the movement of which substances? 

• (1) carbon dioxide and sugar 
• (2) oxygen and ATP 
• (3) ATP and carbon dioxide 
• (4) oxygen and sugar

Which row in the chart correctly identifies the functions of structures A, B, and C?

• 1
• 2
• 3
• 4

Makes proteins.

• nucleus
• ribosomes
• lysosomes
• vacuole

Breaks down food to release energy.

• nucleus
• lysosomes
• mitochondria
• vacuole

What are the reactants (what's needed) for photosynthesis?

• glucose and oxygen
• light, water, and carbon dioxide
• oxygen and light
• glucose and carbon dioxide

What is the purpose of photosynthesis?

• make glucose
• make ATP
• make light
• release carbon dioxide

This process releases chemical energy from sugars and other carbon-based molecules to make ATP when oxygen is present.

• photosynthesis
• light-independent reaction
• cellular respiration
• light-dependent reaction
