Question 6
Question
Pancreatic islet cells were cultured in a medium containing radio-labeled amino acids. Every five minutes, a sample of cells were removed from the culture, washed and fractionated. The radioactivity of each fraction was then measured. The results showed that in the first five minutes, most of the radioactivity was found in the rough ER. After 30 minutes, most of the radioactivity was found in the Golgi body. After 60 minutes, almost all of the radioactivity was found in the cell membrane. Which of the following is most likely the identity and function of the radio-labeled protein?
Answer
-
A hormone to lower blood glucose concentrations.
-
A hormone to raise blood glucose concentrations.
-
An enzyme to oxidize glucose in the pancreas.
-
A receptor for a hormone that helps regulate blood glucose concentrations.
-
A neurotransmitter involved in appetite regulation.
Question 7
Question
Which of the following shows the correct sequence of events regarding the radio-labeled protein in the cell from question 6?
Answer
-
Nucleus --> cytoplasm --> ribosome --> rough ER --> Golgi --> exocytosis
-
Nucleus --> rough ER --> Golgi --> membrane --> exocytosis
-
Rough ER --> Golgi --> membrane
-
Rough ER --> Golgi --> membrane --> exocytosis
-
Rough ER --> Golgi --> lysosome --> membrane
Question 8
Question
Which of the following best describes the mechanism of transport if a substance is observed to move down its concentration gradient (from high to low concentration) across a cell membrane at a much faster rate than expected by simple diffusion, but without the hydrolysis of ATP?
Answer
-
Osmosis
-
Facilitated diffusion
-
Active diffusion
-
Active transport

Answer
-
shrivel.
-
swell and lyse.
-
not change.
-
become sickle shaped.
-
undergo apoptosis.
Question 11
Question
A plant cell removed from a healthy, well-watered plant into an isotonic medium would most likely
Answer

-
become flaccid.
-
swell and lyse.
-
elongate.
-
undergo apoptosis.
Question 12
Question
Dialysis tubing contains tiny holes through which only small molecules like water can pass. A dialysis bag containing a 10 percent sucrose solution is placed in a beaker of distilled water. After two hours, the bag increased in mass by 50 percent. Which of the following is a reasonable interpretation of this observation.
Answer
-
Sucrose left the bag and entered the beaker.
-
Sucrose entered the bag from the beaker by osmosis.
-
Water entered the bag from the beaker by osmosis.
-
Water left the bag and entered the beaker by osmosis.
-
None of the answers are correct.

Question
All of the following statements regarding cell size are true EXCEPT
Answer
-
Cells are small because their surface area is larger than their volume.
-
As cells grow, their surface area increases.
-
As cells grow, their volume increases.
-
As cells grow, their surface area to volume ratio decreases.
-
Large cells have a lower surface area to volume ratio.

Question
All of the following are true of cells EXCEPT
Answer
-
They come from preexisting cells.
-
They all perform aerobic respiration to make ATP.
-
They all have membranes.
-
They all contain DNA and ribosomes.
-
