The Golgi apparatus has a polarity or sidedness to its structure and function. Which of the following statements correctly describes this polarity? Proteins in the membrane of the Golgi may be sorted and modified as they move from one side of the Golgi to the other. Lipids in the membrane of the Golgi may be sorted and modified as they move from one side of the Golgi to the other. Transport vesicles fuse with one side of the Golgi and leave from the opposite side. Soluble proteins in the cisternae (interior) of the Golgi may be sorted and modified as they move from one side of the Golgi to the other. All of the above correctly describe polar characteristics of the Golgi function.

All of the above

Centrioles, cilia, flagella, and basal bodies have remarkably similar structural elements and arrangements. Which of the following hypotheses is most plausible in light of such structural similarities? Motor proteins such as dynein must have evolved before any of these four kinds of structures. Cilia and flagella coevolved in the same ancestral eukaryotic organism. Cilia and flagella arise from the centrioles. Natural selection for cell motility repeatedly selected for microtubular arrays in circular patterns in the evolution of each of these structures. Loss of basal bodies should lead to loss of all cilia, flagella, and centrioles.

Why isn't the mitochondrion classified as part of the endomembrane system? It is a static structure. It has too many vesicles. It is not involved in protein synthesis. Its structure is not derived from the ER or Golgi. It is not attached to the outer nuclear envelope.

Its structure is not derived from the ER or Golgi.

Which of the following makes it necessary for animal cells, although they have no cell walls, to have intercellular junctions? Cell membranes do not distinguish the types of ions and molecules passing through them. Large molecules, such as proteins and RNA molecules, do not readily get through one, much less two, adjacent cell membranes. Cell-to-cell communication requires physical attachment of one cell to another. Maintenance of tissue integrity and barriers to fluid leakage requires cells to adhere tightly to one another. The relative shapelessness of animal cells requires a mechanism for keeping the cells aligned.

Maintenance of tissue integrity and barriers to fluid leakage requires cells to adhere tightly to one another.

Which plant cell organelle contains its own DNA and ribosomes? vacuole mitochondrion peroxisome Golgi apparatus glyoxysome

Mitochondrion

Which of the following statements about the cytoskeleton is true? The dynamic aspect of cytoskeletal function is made possible by the assembly and disassembly of a large variety of proteins into complex aggregates. Transport vesicles among the membranes of the endomembrane system produce the cytoskeleton. Movement of cilia and flagella is the result of motor proteins causing microtubules to move relative to each other. Chemicals that block the assembly of the cytoskeleton would cause little effect on the cell's response to external signals and stimuli. Microfilaments are structurally rigid and resist compression, whereas microtubules resist tension (stretching).

Movement of cilia and flagella is the result of motor proteins causing microtubules to move relative to each other.

Which of the following statements correctly describes some aspect of protein secretion from prokaryotic cells? In prokaryotes, the ribosomes that are used for the synthesis of secreted proteins are located outside of the cell. Prokaryotes are unlikely to be able to secrete proteins because they lack an endomembrane system. Proteins that are secreted by prokaryotes are synthesized on ribosomes that are bound to the cytoplasmic surface of the plasma membrane. Prokaryotes contain large pores in their plasma membrane that permit the movement of proteins out of the cell. The mechanism of protein secretion in prokaryotes is probably the same as that in eukaryotes.

Proteins that are secreted by prokaryotes are synthesized on ribosomes that are bound to the cytoplasmic surface of the plasma membrane.

Which structure is the site of the synthesis of proteins that may be exported from the cell? Golgi vesicles lysosomes free cytoplasmic ribosomes rough ER plasmodesmata

The cell walls of bacteria, fungi, and plant cells and the extracellular matrix of animal cells are all external to the plasma membrane. Which of the following is a characteristic common to all of these extracellular structures? They must provide a rigid structure that maintains an appropriate ratio of cell surface area to volume. They must block water and small molecules in order to regulate the exchange of matter and energy with their environment. They are composed of a mixture of lipids and carbohydrates. They are constructed of polymers that are synthesized in the cytoplasm and then transported out of the cell. They must permit information transfer between the cell's cytoplasm and the nucleus.

The volume enclosed by the plasma membrane of plant cells is often much larger than the corresponding volume in animal cells. The most reasonable explanation for this observation is that animal cells are more spherical, whereas plant cells are elongated. plant cells have a much more highly convoluted (folded) plasma membrane than animal cells. plant cells can have lower surface-to-volume ratios than animal cells because plant cells synthesize their own nutrients. plant cells are capable of having a much higher surface-to-volume ratio than animal cells. plant cells contain a large vacuole that adds to the volume of the cytoplasm.
