Exam 4: Cell Structure

A cuboidal shaped cell with six sides is 1mm x 1mm x 1mm.What is the volume and the surface area of the cell?

Your research project involves characterizing the expression pattern of a nuclear pore protein.After using immunohistochemistry to fluorescently label the protein,you decide that you would like to capture the data as a 3-D image.Which microscope should you use?

The distinctive feature of chloroplasts is that they contain a green pigment called:

Cilia and flagella of eukaryotic cells are composed of:

A protein that is destined to reach the plasma membrane is making its way through the Golgi.At that moment,a drug was added to cells,blocking trafficking at the trans face of the Golgi.As a result,what would happen to the protein?

The cytoplasmic space in eukaryotic cells is occupied by many diverse membrane-bound structures with specific cellular functions called:

Schleiden and Schwann stated the "cell theory," which in its modern form says:

During which cellular process do all three forms of RNA associate?

Chromosomes can be condensed into compact structures,visible with the light microscope,but usually only:

What is the difference between mitochondria and chloroplasts?

Organelles that breakdown hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen are:

Alcohol consumption adversely affects the synthesis of molecules involved in protein degradation,which can eventually lead to liver damage.Given this information,which organelle in liver cells is most directly affected by alcohol consumption?

The organelle involved in the oxygen-requiring process by which the energy harvested from macromolecules is used to generate ATP is the:

A circular molecule of DNA devoid of any histone proteins describes the chromosome of a (an):

Small cells function more effectively,because as cells become larger their surface area to volume ratio:

Prokaryotic cell movement is attributed to:

Glycogen Storage Disease Type II (GSD II),also known as Pompe disease,is a metabolic disorder that leads to the accumulation of glycogen in muscles and neurons throughout the body.It is caused by a defect in an enzyme that is normally housed with other enzymes that are involved in breaking down large macromolecules.What organelle is most likely affected by this disease?

Based on the function of mitochondria,what substance is able to pass through the outer membrane of the mitochondria easily?

Plant cells often have a large membrane-bound sac that is used for storing water and other substances called a:

A dish of cells is treated with centrinone,a centriole inhibitor.These cells would no longer be able to ________.
