• chlorplast

• Golgi apparatus

• plasma membrane

Which structure is common in plant and animal cells?

• chloroplast

• wall made of cellulose

• central vacuole

• mitochondrion

Which of the following is present in a prokaryotic cell?

• mitochondrion

• ribosome

• nuclear envelope

• chloroplast

Which structure-function pair is mismatched?

• nucleolus - production of ribosome subunits

• lysosome - intracellular digestion

Cyanide bonds to at least one molecule involved in producing ATP. If a cell is exposed to cyanide, most of the cyanide will be found within the:

• mitochondria

• ribosomes

• peroxisomes

• lysosomes

What is the most likely pathway taken by a newly synthesized protein that will be secreted by a cell?

• ER --> Golgi --> nucleus

• Golgi --> ER --> lysosome

• nucleus --> ER --> Golgi

• ER --> Golgi --> vesicles that fuse with the plasma membrane

Which cell would be best for studying lysosomes?

• muscle cell

• nerve cell

• phagocytic white blood cell

• leaf cell in a plant

Which of the following eukaryotic organelles does not contain DNA?

• nucleus

• mitochondrion

• endoplasmic reticulum

• chloroplast

Consider two cells with the same volume but very different surface areas due to their difference in shape. The cell with the larger surface area is most likely to:

• be involved in the rapid uptake of materials from the cell's environment

• have a very high metabolic rate

• be prokaryotic

• be buried deep in the interior of an organism

• be nearly spherical in shape
