Which of the following statements about mitochondria is FALSE?
Mitochondria have two memranes
mitochondria perform aerobic respiration
mitochondria are found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells
mitochondria are found in both plant and animal cells
mitochondria contain ribosomes
mitochondria are found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells
The formation of ATP and Pi ADP+pi–> ATP
is exergonic
does not consume or release energy
releases energy to the environment
requires an input of energy
liberates heat, which becomes the heat of metabolism
requires an input of energy
Which of the following statements about mitochondria is true
Mitochondria are part of the endomembrane system
mitochondria are synthesized in the nucleus
mitochondria contain digestive enzymes
mitochondria have two membranes
mitochondria have a nucleus
mitochondria have two membranes
which of the following statements is FALSE?
some carbohydrates are polymers
proteins are polymers of nucleotides
amino acids are attached to one another with a peptide bond
saturated fats tend to be solid at room temperature
a phospholipid contains two fatty acids
proteins are polymers of nucleotides
They are polymers of amino acids!!!!
There is one very common type of eukaryotic cell that doesn’t have a nucleus:
stem cell
nerve cell
red blood cell
dermal cell
egg cell
red blood cell
to carry more oxygen, but this limits their lifespan and thus need to be made continually
phospholipids form bilayers because:
they are completely uncharged and therefore hydrophilic
one end to the molecule is charged and the other end is not
fatty acids form hydrogen bonds with water
fatty acids form hydrogen bonds with each other
fatty acids form polymers that line up in bilayers
one end to the molecule is charged and the other end is not
which of the following is NOT part of the endomembrane system?
endoplasmic reticulum
nuclear membrane
plasma membrane
lysosome membrane
lysosome
ribosome
ribosome
They have no membrane
which of the following is FALSE?
polymers are formed from monomers
polymers are formed by dehydration reaction
a monosaccharide is sugar
simple sugars are polymers of monosaccharides
a dehydration reaction forms a water molecule
Simple sugars are polymers of monosaccharides
simple sugars are just simple sugars
which of the following statements is FALSE?
all proteins have primary structure
primary structure is the sequence of amino acids in the polypeptide chain
an a-helix is a type of secondary structure
all proteins have quaternary structure
all proteins are polymers of amino acids
all proteins have quaternary structure
two strands of DNA wrap around each other to form a double helix. The two strands are held together by:
Covalent bonds
ionic bonds
hydrogen bonds
oppositely charges ions
magic
hydrogen bonds
a hydrogen bond is formed when:
Two atoms are held together by shared electrons
Molecules have unevenly distributed electrons and unlike charges attract
molecules share electrons with neighboring molecules to form a bond
electrons are lost from one molecule and gained by another
the nuclei of two atoms interact
Molecules have unevenly distributed electrons and unlike charges attract
What is specific heat?
The inherited amount of molecular motion in a substance
the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of a substance
the amount of heat released when a substance changes state from solid to liquid
the amount of heat to maintain a substance in the gaseous form
the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of a substance
a solution with a pH of 3 has________ a solution with a pH of 6
twice the concentration of H+ as
half the concentration of H+ as
3 times the concentration of H+ as
1000 times higher concentration of H+ as
1000 times lower concentration of H= as
1000 times higher concentration of H+ as
