Exam 4: A Tour of the Cell

Which plant cell organelle contains its own DNA and ribosomes?

Which of the following structures will be found in nearly all eukaryotic cells?

Which organelles or structures are absent in plant cells?

Vinblastine,a drug that inhibits microtubule polymerization,is used to treat some forms of cancer.Cancer cells given vinblastine would be unable to carry out which of the following processes?

The liver is involved in detoxification of many poisons and drugs.Which of the following structures is primarily involved in this process and therefore abundant in liver cells?

Which of the following molecules or structures may be found in eukaryotic cells but not in bacteria?

Comparison of samples from the liver of an alcoholic with samples from the liver of a non-drinker when examined by transmission electron microscopy would likely reveal that

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

Tay-Sachs disease is a human genetic abnormality that results in cells accumulating very large,complex,undigested lipids.Which cellular organelle is likely to be defective in this condition?

Which organelle occupies much of the volume of a plant cell?

The smallest cell structures that would most likely be visible with a standard (not super-resolution)research-grade light microscope are

The evolution of eukaryotic cells most likely involved

A mutation that disrupts the ability of an animal cell to add carbohydrate modifications to proteins would most likely cause defects in its

Extracellular matrix proteins are produced by ribosomes in which part of a eukaryotic cell?

Plastids are only found in which of the following types of cells or organisms?

Which of the following structures plays a major role in making skin tissue water tight?

Which of the following is present in a prokaryotic cell?

Cyanide binds 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

Which of the following molecules is required to build cilia or flagella?

The chemical reactions involved in respiration in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells are virtually identical.In eukaryotic cells,ATP is synthesized primarily on the inner membrane of the mitochondria.In light of the endosymbiont theory for the evolutionary origin of mitochondria,where would you expect most ATP synthesis to occur in prokaryotic cells?
