The evolutionary process that created chloroplasts and mitochondria is:

Microfilaments such as actin, microtubules, and the intermediate filaments form the cell-supporting structure called the:

Integrins are glycoproteins that help link the cytoskeleton and the:

Organelles that breakdown hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen are:

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

Antibiotics that block the synthesis of a cell wall would be least likely to affect cells from which organisms?

If you added a drug to a suspension of bacteria that inhibited their flagella they would not be able to _____

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

Cells that produce a lot of lipids for membranes would have an enlarged

In eukaryotes, mitochondria are the organelles primarily involved in:

Peroxisomes are examples of:

Mitochondria and chloroplasts are the other organelles besides the nucleus that contain:

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

Chloroplasts contain a green photosynthetic pigment called

A cytologist is examining a tissue under an electron microscope. He notices that the endoplasmic reticulum of each cell is extremely rough in appearance and he knows that the rough appearance is because of the ribosomes embedded there. He asks why there are so many ribosomes. You respond,

Plants, fungi and bacteria all have:

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?

Individuals that are heavy smokers may eventually have trouble clearing the mucous from their lungs because the structures that move fluid along the epithelial lining of the lung become damaged over time. What are these structures called?

If the function of centrioles was impaired in a cell, it could not:

Matthew noticed that his house plants were wilting badly. What cell structure had most likely had contracted?

A distinctive feature of eukaryotes is the organization of tightly packaged chromosomal DNA with proteins into a membrane-bound structure called a:

The organelle that can collect, package, modify, and transport molecules is called the:
