The cells of all organisms contain DNA. In cells of which of the following groups is the cellular DNA enclosed in a nucleus?

• bacteria

• eukaryotes

• prokaryotes

• viruses

Lysosomes are organelles that contain enzymes. Which of the following is a function of lysosomes?

• Lysosomes build lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins.

• Lysosomes package lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins.

• Lysosomes break down lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins.

• Lysosomes store lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins.

Which of the following structures are typically present in both plant and animal cells?

• cell walls

• centrioles

• chloroplasts

• mitochondria

All cells contain cell membranes. Which of the following describes the composition of cell membranes?

• Cell membranes are composed of carbohydrate chains, which allow all materials to enter and leave the cell.

• Cell membranes are composed of cellulose, which provide rigidity for the cell.

• Cell membranes are composed of cytoplasm, which allows proteins to be excreted by the cell.

• Cell membranes are composed of lipid molecules, which provide a flexible structure.

In eukaryotic cells, a number of organelles allow the cell to produce and distribute proteins. Where are proteins modified, sorted, and packaged?

• Golgi apparatus

• ribosomes

• rough endoplasmic reticulum

• smooth endoplasmic reticulum

A cell is placed in an isotonic solution. How does the cell maintain homeostasis in this environment?

• Water will move across the cell membrane to the outside of the cell because the solution has a higher concentration of solute particles than the cell.

• Water will move across the cell membrane in both directions because the concentrations of solute particles inside and outside the cell are the same.

• Water will move across the cell membrane to the inside of the cell because the cell has a higher concentration of solute particles than the solution.

• There is no movement of water molecules into or out of the cell because the concentrations of solute particles inside and outside the cell are the same.

Multicellular organisms contain organ systems. Which of the following BEST describes the organs in an organ system?

• The organs in an organ system work together to perform all the functions a multicellular organism needs to maintain homeostasis.

• The organs in an organ system are made up of similar cells.

• The organs in an organ system are made up of similar tissues.

• The organs in an organ system work together to perform a specific function.

The illustration shows a model of the transport of solute particles from outside the cell to inside the cell. What type of cell transport is modeled?

• The model illustrates osmosis because water molecules are moving from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.

• The model illustrates active transport because energy is required to move the solute particles from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration.

• The model illustrates facilitated diffusion because protein channels allow solute particles to cross the cell membrane.

• The model illustrates diffusion because solute particles are moving from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.

Like animals, plants contain a hierarchical organization of interacting systems. Which of the following is an example of an organ in a plant?

• chloroplast

• vascular tissue

• leaf

• seed
