Exam 3: Cells

One function of the cell membrane is to identify the cell as belonging to a particular individual.

If one side of the DNA molecule has the nucleotide sequence of adenine-guanine-adenine-cytosine-thymine, the other side would be

DNA replication occurs during prophase of mitosis.

Only about half the population has which of the following organelles?

Briefly describe the process of translation.

One of the jobs of the Golgi apparatus is to make new membranes for the cell.

Both mitochondria and ribosomes contain nucleic acids.

The terms interstitial fluid and tissue fluid refer to the same thing.

Match each organelle or cell structure to its corresponding function or description. -Small rods that are important in cell division

During which phase of mitosis do the chromosomes move to opposite sides of the cell?

Which of the following is not a function of the cell membrane?

The end product of the process of translation is an amino acid chain or protein.

Match each phase of the cell life cycle to its corresponding description. -The cleavage furrow completely divides the cell into two parts

Hypertrophy and hyperplasia are interchangeable terms.

List the phases of mitosis and explain what occurs in each phase.

The fluid inside the cell is called interstitial fluid.

Match each phase of the cell life cycle to its corresponding description. -Chromosomes are pulled to opposite sides of the cell

What are the protein factories of the cell?

Both pinocytosis and phagocytosis are examples of active transport mechanisms.

Active transport moves material by a mechanism that is opposite that of diffusion.
