a) Depolarized b) Hyperpolarized
7) a)True/b)False: The ATP synthase generates ATP using a proton gradient in mitochondria and thylakoids.
8) a)True/b)False: Glycolysis produces pyruvate in the mitochondrial matrix.
9) a)True/b)False: Six carbon dioxide molecules are united at the same time to make a single glucose in the dark reactions of photosynthesis (Calvin Cycle).

a) Ligand-gated b) Voltage-gated c) Mechanosensitive
9) Which enzyme breaks down the second messenger cyclic GMP (cGMP)? (viagra blocks this process).
a) Phosphodiesterase b) Calmodulin c) Guanylyl cyclase d) Stimulatory α-GTP
10) Pyruvate dehydrogenase oxidizes pyruvate into acetyl-CoA and ________.
A B C D
[pic][pic][pic][pic]
11) For eukaryotic cells glycolysis occurs in the ______and the tricarboxylic acid cycle occurs in the ______.
a) Mitochondria, Chloroplast b) Cytosol, Golgi apparatus
c) Cytosol, Smooth endoplasmic reticulum d) Cytosol, Mitochondria
12) Which of the following are directly produced by photosynthesis (P-680 and P-700)?
a) FADH2 b) NADH c) Glucose d) Pyruvate e) None are directly produced
13) The insect poison malathion blocks acetylcholinesterase from degrading the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. If malathion was present….
a) the post synaptic cell would be less likely to depolarize when acetylcholine is released
b) the post synaptic cell would be more likely to depolarize when acetylcholine is released
14) a)True/b)False: Saltatory conduction of an action potentials is fastest because it uses gaps in the myelin to expose sodium and potassium voltage-gated channels at Nodes of Ranvier.
15) a)True/b)False: After an action potential has depolarized an excitable membrane by opening sodium channels, the potassium permeability temporarily increases causing sustained depolarization.
16) a)True/b)False: Voltage gated channels have a gate that closes a few milliseconds after the gates open during depolarization, this limits the duration of membrane potential depolarization.
17) a)True/b)False: During a typical action potential the sodium and potassium voltage-gated channels open at the exact same time and close at the exact same time.
18) a)True/b)False: Gap junctions create passages that allow sodium entering a cardiac cell to directly pass into the cytosol of a second cell causing it to depolarize.
19) ________hormones are produced locally and only act on cells in a close proximity to the origin.
a) Autocrine b) Paracrine c) Endocrine d) Neuroendocrine
20) Which subunit of a G-protein dissociates and stimulates adenylyl cyclase when GDP is displaced?
a) Alpha-GTP b) Beta-GTP c) Gamma-GTP d) Calmodulin
21) Which second messenger stimulates protein kinase C to phosphorylate target protein serines and threonines?
a) Acetylcholinesterase(ACH) b) Diacylglycerol(DAG) c) Phosphodiesterase (PDE) d) Na+/K+-ATPase
22) Which of the following can increase calcium permeability to cause contraction or exocytosis?
a) Inositol triphosphate b) Voltage-gated channels c) Calcium d) All of above
23) Hormones like testosterone have a _________charge and must have a carrier to bring them from the plasma membrane through the watery cytosol to the DNA in the nucleus.
a) polar b) non-polar
24) Which amino acid residue would be the wortst choice for phosphorylation by protein kinases?
a) Tyrosine b) Serine c) Threonine d) Lysine
d) All of above have hydroxyls and are good targets IF the kinase is specific for that protein and residue
25) a) True/b) False: All living cells have a membrane potential (mV) but only excitable cells can create and send action potentials down their length.
26) a) True/b) False: All cells have silimar receptors for the same hormones on the intracellular side of their plasma membranes
27) a) True/b)False: Insulin binds its plasma membrane receptor which is a tyrosine kinase that used a G-protein to autophosphorylate itself, then it phosphorylates amino groups on target proteins in the cytosol.
28) a)True/b)False: Typically extracellular sodium is 145 mM, intracellular sodium is 10 mM, extracellular K+ is 5 mM, and intracellular K+ is 125 mM.
