Exam 5: Cell Structure

The structure in cells that is associated with the enzymatic breakdown (digestion) of foreign material is the:

Which of the following is not true of the rough endoplasmic reticulum?

An important function of the cell membrane is the maintenance of cell integrity.

Explain what structure on the cell membrane makes it difficult to transplant an organ from one person into another.

Match each term to the phrase that describes it best. -Cell extensions that lack the center pair of microtubules and can function as sensory organelles; not found in blood cells, but most other cells have them

Match each term to the phrase that describes it best. -Largest of the cell fibers; act like "engines" for the cell

The ____ is often called the microtubule organizing center.

Granules or threads within the nucleus are called:

It is likely that a muscle cell would have more mitochondria than a fat cell.

Match each term to the phrase that describes it best. -Microtubule organizing centers that also play a role in cell division

Match each cell structure with its corresponding description or function. -Vesicles or sacs in the cell that can destroy large molecules or even the cell itself

Match each term to the phrase that describes it best. -Cell connection that forms a "collar" around groups of cells

The "typical" cell described in this chapter is very similar to most of the cells in the human body.

Lysosomes are vesicles that have been pinched off from the smooth endoplasmic reticulum.

Chromosomes and chromatin are both forms of DNA.

Proteins in the cell membrane can control the movement of material through the cell membrane.

ATP production occurs within which organelle?

Match each cell structure with its corresponding description or function. -Structures that destroy improperly folded protein molecules that could possibly harm the cell

Explain the structure and function of cilia and flagella. What is the only type of human cell that has a flagellum?

Nuclear pore complexes regulate what can enter and leave the nucleus.
