thoracic cavity

the ventral cavity contains the

thoracic cavity and abdominopelvic cavity

DNA is found in mitochondria

true

anticodons make up part of the transfer RNA, because they are opposite of the DNA codon

true

both the citric acid cycle and the electron transport system occur in the mitochondria

true

cholesterol is a type of steroid

true

enzymes are functional proteins that bring molecules together or split them apart in chemical reactions

true

in normal mitosis, the two daughter cells are identical genetically to the parent cell

true

kidneys are bilateral organs located in the abdominal region. but they are located outside the peritoneal membrane posterior to which is called retroperitoneal.

true

metabolism includes the processes of both anabolism and catabolism

true

one function of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum is to help maintain a low Ca++ concentration in the cell's interior

true

responsiveness or irritability is the ability to sense changes in the environment and then make necessary changes of the behavior according to them. this is the basis of homeostasis.

true

the ability of proteins to perform their function depends on their shape or conformation

true

the centromere holds two chromatids together

true

the mitochondria are unique organelles because they are able to replicate themselves

true

the most important end product in cellular respiration is ATP and oxygen is one of the reactants

true

the process of glycolysis produces two molecules of pyruvate for every on molecule of glucose

true

the size of the molecule is an important factor in both dialysis and filtration

true

two types of lipids, phospholipids, and cholesterol, are important molecules in the cell membrane

true

when vesicles from the Golgi apparatus reach the cell membrane, the contents re secreted outside the cell

true

the mediastinum is located in the __________ cavity

ventral

the partial pleura covers the

the formation of surcrose involves the removal of a molecule of water. this is called

dehydration synthesis

another term for posterior is
