7. Scientists have found that the rate of division in amoebas is controlled. Scientists believe that the transition from stage 2 to stage 3 is slowed by proteins. The additional time seems to help the amoeba change coding errors caused during DNA replication. Specialized proteins control cell division in the amoeba. Which cell part is responsible for making these proteins? A. mitochondrion B. pseudopod C. ribosome D. lysosome C

34. The following cell structures are located within cells that make proteins. Which description best explains the relationship among these cell structures in making a protein? nucleus ribosome endoplasmic reticulum (ER) A. nucleus makes protein protein winds through the ER protein folds into its active shape B. nucleus directs ER to assemble the protein ribosomes surround protein protein folds into its active shape C. ER creates protein DNA in the nucleus codes for ribosomes to surround protein protein folds into its active shape D. DNA in nucleus codes for protein protein assembled in ribosomes and moves to ER protein folds into its active shape D

33. What will happen if an animal cell that has a solute concentration of 1% is placed in a 5% saltwater solution? A. It will shrink because there is less water outside of the cell than there is on the inside. B. It will burst because there is more water on the outside of the cell than there is on the inside. C. It will burst because there is more water on the inside of the cell than there is on the outside. D. It will remain the same size because there is an equal amount of water on the inside and outside of the cell. A

5. Each type of specialized cell in the body performs a special function to maintain homeostasis. These cells have different structures which reflect the different functions they perform, however all of these cells began from a few simple cells that make up an embryo. What major factor causes the structural changes in the different cells of the body known as differentiation? A. Different sections of DNA are activated or not activated to make different structures B. The mother provides chemical signals to the embryo as it develops in the womb C. Different cells receive different levels of oxygen during differentiation creating different types of cells D. Growth hormone changes the structure of the embryo’s cells as it develops A

19. A sodium-potassium pump within a cell membrane requires energy to move sodium and potassium ions into or out of a cell. The movement of glucose into or out of a cell does not require energy. Which statement best describes the movement of these materials across a cell membrane? A. Sodium and potassium ions move by active transport, and glucose moves by osmosis. B. Sodium and potassium ions move by active transport, and glucose moves by facilitated diffusion. C. Sodium and potassium ions move by facilitated diffusion, and glucose moves by osmosis. D.
