Quiz 1 1. Which of the following is true of ribosomes? A. Ribosomes are found in eukaryotes only. B. Ribosomes are the site of transcription. C. Ribosomes are where RNA is translated into proteins D. Both A and C are true. E. All of the above are true. 2. True or False: C ancer is a collection of diseases that typically results from an accumulation of mutations. 3. Which of the following makes up the spindle apparatus? A. actin B. myosin C. microtubules D. intermediate filaments E. mitochondria 4. What major activity happens during the S phase of the cell cycle? It may be helpful to think about what S means. Copy of DNA 5. What is the name of the process where cells die in a programmed way? Apotosis 6. When transcription factor E2F is active, what cell cycle checkpoint is cleared? A. G2/M B. G1/S C. M D. G1/G2 7. Which of the following proteins interacts with E2F to keep it in its inactive state? A. p53 B. pRb C. p21 D. cyclin E. cohesin 8. What term is used to describe a change in the DNA sequence? mutation 9. Describe a general characteristic of cancer cells. Rapidly divides: mutated cells; no apotosis 10-11. A malignant tumor is made up of abnormal cells that have the ability to invade healthy tissue. If cancerous cells spread from their primary location to a new location, the term used to describe this spread is metatstisize . 12. Which of the following is true of Myc protein? A. It is a transcription factor that stimulates cell cycle progression. B. It is an example of a tumor suppressor. C. It stimulates the cell to carry out apoptosis. D. It regulates the cell cycle at the M checkpoint. 1 3. True or False: Mutations in the gene that encodes for p53 are found in half of all cancers.
14. Cancer cells may stimulate angiogenesis? What is this? New blood pathways to the cancer cells 15-16. What are two ways cancer cells benefit from angiogenesis? More nutriennts and more o2 supply 17. Which of the following are proto-oncogenes/oncogenes? Circle all that are proto-oncogenes/oncogenes. A. p53 B. p21 C. Ras GTPase D. Myc E. pRB 18-19. What are two things that are being evaluated at the S checkpoint and G2 checkpoint. Damage, resourcea 20. True or False : Both copies of a proto-oncogene/oncogene must be mutated for the e ff ect to occur. 21. True or False: Both copies of a tumor suppressor must be mutated for the e ff ect to occur. 22-23. The mitochondria produces ATP in a process known as cellular respiration . 24. A tumor was discovered in Susie ! s breast. Later, it was determined that cells from the original tumor spread to her liver and brain. What kind(s) of cancer does Susie have? Circle all that apply. A. Breast cancer B. Liver (hepatic) cancer C. Brain cancer D. Skin cancer 25. How do mutations in DNA repair genes impact cancer progression? Can cause it to spread faster since it can’t be repaired Quiz 2 1. Which of the following is true of mitochondria? A. Mitochondria are found in eukaryotes only. B. There is only one mitochondria per cell. C. Mitochondria produce ATP through cellular respiration. D. Both A and C are true. E. All of the above are true. 2. True or False: Cancer is a collection of diseases that typically results from a single mutation. 3. Which of the following makes up the cleavage furrow? A. actin B. dynein C. microtubules D. intermediate filaments E. mitochondria
4. What phase of the cell cycle includes G1, S, and G2? interphase 5. What is apoptosis? Programmed cell death 6. What phase of mitosis has a checkpoint? A. prophase B. anaphase C. telophase D. metaphase 7. Which of the following interacts with pRB, rendering it inactive? A. CDK B. E2F C. p21 D. cyclin E. cohesin 8. What is a mutation? When the amino acid sequence in Dna has changed 9. True or False: Proto-oncogenes may encode for growth factors or growth factor receptors. 10. If a person ! s cancer has spread, it has metastisized . 11. What is the name given to a collection of abnormal cells that are not cancerous? benign 12. Which of the following is true of BCL-2 protein? A. It is a transcription factor that stimulates cell cycle progression. B. It is an example of a tumor suppressor. C. It inhibits apoptosis. D. It regulates the cell cycle at the M checkpoint. 13. True or False: Mutations in the gene that encodes for p53 are found in all cancers. 14. True or False: Angiogenesis is the formation of blood vessels. 15-16. Withdrawal from the cell cycle is known as G0 . What cells do this? Liver cells 17. Which of the following are tumor suppressors? Circle all that are tumor suppressors. A. p53 B. p21 C. Ras GTPase D. Myc E. pRB 18. True or False: Both copies of a tumor suppressor must typically be mutated for the e ff ect to occur. 19. Which proteins are expressed during the cell cycle stimulating the cycle to progress? Cyclin dependent kinases Tumor suppressors Receptors Cyclins Microtubules 20-25. Fill in the Blanks: The life of a cell is super busy! The cell must move nutrients and wastes across the cell membrane. The process of bringing materials into the cell by pitting the membrane inward is known as endocytes . If materials brought into the cell need to be broken into smaller components, digestion will occur in the lysomes . Sometimes a protein known as
a receptor is stimulated on the outside surface of the cell. This protein acts like a doorbell letting the interior of the cell know that something is happening outside. All of this transport takes lots of energy! Inside the mitochondria, ATP is being made in gigantic quantities. If proteins need to be made, some of that ATP will be used in that process. The nucleus houses the DNA in eukaryotes and genes are used to make messenger RNA or mRNA. The mRNA is translated on the ribosomes, which may be free in the cytoplasm or associated with the rough endoplasmic reticulum. Proteins get processed via a variety of modifications in the golgi . Cells are structural and functional units of life. We would not be considered living without our living cells! Quiz 3 1. What is the term used to describe the DNA sequence and the study of changes in that sequence? genetics 2. What is the term used to describe changes related to packaging of DNA and access to genes, but does not involve the DNA sequence itself? epigenetics 3. Where does a germline mutation occur? Genetic in the DNA 4. What germline mutation is found in Li-Fraumeni syndrome? A. p53 B. pRB C. BRCA-1 D. IGF-1 5. True or False: The majority of newly diagnosed cancers occur in individuals over the age of 55, making age the greatest risk factor for developing cancer. 6. What e ff ect does insulin binding to the A type insulin receptors have on cellular activity? A. It stimulates the cells to divide. B. It stimulates the cells to go through apoptosis. C. It stimulates the cell to take up glucose. D. Both A and C E. All of the above 7. True or False: Hyperinsulinemia is associated with obesity. 8. What type of cells does Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infect? A. Red blood cells B. B lymphocytes C. Monocytes D. Hepatocytes 9 . Although cancer caused by EBV is rare, list a type of cancer link to EBV infection. lymphoma 10. Why is it important to vaccinate against HPV around 11-12 years of age? Prevent cancers associated with HPV 11. What types of cancer are associated with HPV? List one. Cervical cancer 12-13. What type of condition does H. pylori cause and what type of cancer is it sometimes associated with H. pylori ? ulcers and stomach 14. Why do certain types of cancer occur more often in those with autoimmune diseases? Immune system is already compromised 15.
