Question

In AERO cellular respiration, carbons from glucose end up in what chemicals? A. Lactate B. Carbon dioxide C. NADH&FADH;_2 D. Oxygen E. Pyruvate (or pyruvic acid) Which of the following is a STRUCTURAL component of nucleotides? A Phosphate B. Pentose sugar Nitrogenous base D. A& B E. A, B & C mRNA transcripts are generated from which of the following polymers? A. tRNA B. DNA template strands C. Proteins D. DNA coding strands E. rRNA Which of the following types of macromolecules are used to build RIBOSOMES? A. Proteins B. rRNA C tRNA D. A & B E. A, B & C Which of the following receives proteins DIRECTLY from the ROUGH ER? A. Golgi apparatus (or complex) . B. Lysosome C. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum D. Peroxisome E. Nucleus Which of the following is NOT synthesized by the SMOOTH ER? A. Lipids B. Proteins C. Carbohydrates D. A&B; E. A, B&C; Cells use _____ to obtain 130 ATPs per palmitic acid (16-carbon fatty acid) molecule. A. alpha-oxidation (or alpha-oxidation) B. fermentation C. gamma-Oxidation (or gamma-oxidation) D. glycolysis E. beta-oxidation (or beta-oxidation) Which of the following is a RARE example of POSITIVE feedback mechanism? A. Complement activation B. Glucose homeostasis C. Insulin production D. A& B E. A, B&C;

Explanation / Answer

32. B.CO2 (because the only carbon-containing compound is Glucose)

33. E. (all are combined to form nucleotide, which forms the backbone of DNA/RNA strand)

34. B. DNA template strand (RNA polymerase II uses it to make a complementary strand of RNA- the mRNA)

35. D. rRNA and proteins

36. A. Golgi apparatus or complex (by COPII(coating proteins))

37. B. Proteins (it synthesizes lipids, detoxify toxic substances and make/break carbohydrates)

38. E beta-oxidation (to get 34 ATP, though 96 ATP already formed from citric acid cycle)

39.A. Complement activation
