Total questions: 15
Worksheet time: 8mins
Students created note cards comparing characteristic of eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. Which set of note cards most accurately compares these cells?
Students use a microscope to look for structures present in four different cells. The students placed an X for each structure that was viewed for each cell on the table shown. Which cell that was viewed is most likely a PROKARYOTE?
Cell W
Cell X
Cell Y
Cell Z
Which table correctly identifies how the plasma membrane contributes to the maintenance of cellular homeostasis?
Materials are provided to students to build models of prokaryotic cell, eukaryotic cell, and a virus. The materials and the structures they represent are listed in the table shown. Which material will students use in all three models?
Yellow paper oval
Gray paper hexagon
Blue yarn
Purple buttons
Which conclusion about the HIV infection of a host cell is best supported by the diagram?
It takes place outside of living cells
It relies on the host cell to reproduce
It involves the process of meiosis
It requires carbon dioxide
An illness caused by a certain virus includes fever, rash, join pain, red eyes, and headache. The virus is transmitted to people by infected mosquitoes. Symptoms quickly occur within three to twelve days after contracting the virus. There is no vaccine for this virus. Which description best explains the reproductive cycle of this virus?
Lytic, because the virus is transmitted by mosquitoes
Lysogenic, because there is no way to vaccinate against it
Lytic, because of the quick incubation time
Lysogenic, because the virus causes a fever
A student produces a labeled drawing of a virus for a presentation. The student states that the capsid has a function similar to the nuclear membrane found in animal cells. Which of these describes the similar functions of capsids and nuclear membranes?
Both transport proteins throughout the structures
Both provide energy for activities in the structures
Both protect genetic information for the structures
Both code for the proteins needed for reproduction of the structures
In the 1880s, Louis Pasteur developed a method of weakening viruses. The weakened viruses could be injected into healthy individuals. How is this method effective in fighting viral diseases?
The immune system develops antibodies in response to the weakened viruses.
The weakened viruses attach to unaffected viruses in the host and interrupt the viral reproductive cycle.
The rate of genetic mutation in the host is decreased due to introduction of weakened viruses.
Weakened viruses are unable to enter the host organism.
Which of these describes a difference between viruses and cells?
Cells contain protein, and viruses contain only carbohydrates
Viruses have flagella, and cells have only cilia
Cells reproduce independently, and viruses require a host to reproduce
Viruses have membranes of proteins, and cell have membranes made of nucleic acid
A student groups different types of cells as shown. Which table headings should the student use for the two groups?
1. Animal Cells
2. Plant Cells
1. Prokaryotic Cells
2. Eukaryotic Cells
1. Mobile Cells
2. Motile Cells
1. Fungal Cells
2. Bacterial Cells
Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infects the cells that coordinate the human immune response. Which of the following is a result being infected with HIV?
The infected person is more likely to experience a high rate of mutation in their genes.
The infected person is less likely to develop cancer.
The infected person is more likely to get a secondary infection, such as the flu.
The infected person is less likely to become sick from another virus, such as the flu.
Two students were having a discussion about viruses. Student A believes viruses are not living organisms. Student B believes viruses are living organisms. Which student is correct and why?
Student A is correct because viruses cannot reproduce on their own.
Student A is correct because viruses contain nucleic acid and proteins.
Student B is correct because viruses are considered a type of living cell.
Student B is correct because viruses grow and replicate on their own.
A photograph of a virus is shown below. The projections on the surface of this virus allow it to...
attach to a host cell
control a cell's DNA
engulf the cell whole
signal other viruses to infect the cell
The diagram illustrates the activity of vesicles during a cellular process. Which statement best explains the function of vesicles?
Delivering packaged materials to the Golgi Apparatus for protein synthesis
Exchanging genetic information between Golgi apparatuses of separate cells
Extracting portions of the Golgi apparatus to be regenerated for growth within the cell
Transporting packaged molecules from the Golgi apparatus to be released out of the cell
In 1898 Friedrich Loeffler and Paul Frosch found evidence that the cause of the highly contagious hoof-and-mouth disease in livestock was a microscopic infectious particle. It was discovered that this particle requires a host cell to reproduce. Which pathogen is most likely responsible for causing hoof-and-mouth disease in livestock?
A bacterium, because it is contagious
A fungus, because it infects livestock
A protist, because it is microscopic
A virus, because it requires a host cell to reproduce
