Exam 6: Cell Function

Both the citric acid cycle and the electron transport system occur in the mitochondria.

The most important end product in cellular respiration is oxygen.

The process of pinocytosis may be viewed as the cell drinking.

Digestive enzymes belong to a group of enzymes called hydrases.

Oxygen is used in the citric acid cycle in cell respiration.

Glycolysis produces very little ATP but produces several molecules of NADH and FADH₂.

Lactic acid is the result of glycolysis and is the substance that enters the citric acid cycle.

Because a living cell membrane can limit the diffusion of some substances by opening and closing channels, the membrane can be called selectively permeable.

Compare and contrast the processes of diffusion and osmosis.

A hypertonic solution contains _____ concentration of solute _____ the cell.

Dialysis is a form of filtration that results in a separation of small and large solute particles.

An inorganic substance, such as an ion, is called a coenzyme when it is part of an enzyme.

Endocytosis and pinocytosis are both active transport processes, because they require a carrier system such as a pump.

Phagocytosis can be translated to "cell eating."

Which of the following is not true of glycolysis?

One possible end product of glycolysis is lactic acid.

Potential osmotic pressure can be measured by determining the:

Which of the following is true of anabolic pathways?

The hydrolyzing enzyme sucrase joins two sucrose molecules together.

Digestive enzymes belong to which group?
