CSET Science: Subtest I Cell And Organismal Biology

Subjects : cset, science
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Produce testosterone and sperm






2. Organelles critical to protein synthesis found in the cytoplasm - joined to the endoplasmic reticulum - and within the mitochondria






3. Organelle containing genetic material






4. Covers organ surfaces (skin - airways - reproductive tract - inner lining of the digestive tract)






5. Holds tissues together






6. Produce progesterone and estrogens - in addition to eggs






7. Organism that harnesses light energy to produce organic materials from carbon dioxide and water






8. Organelle in which lipids and steroids are produced - carbohydrates and steroids are metabolized - and calcium concentration - drug detoxification - and attachment of cell membrane receptors are regulated.






9. Stores and releases bile






10. A cell that can differentiate into many different cell types






11. Responsible for the collection - transference - and the processing of external and internal information throughout the body; central nervous system - peripheral nervous system






12. Responsible for transporting materials throughout the body: heart - blood (red - white - platelets) - blood vessels (arteries - vein - capillaries)






13. Produces hormones directly into the blood; pituitary gland - thyroid gland - adrenal glands - pancreas - ovaries - testes - thymus gland






14. Sweat glands and sebaceous glands






15. Eukaryotic organism that is not an animal - a plant - or a fungus.






16. Responsible for storing food and initiating the digestion of proteins






17. One of the cells formed from a parents cell after mitosis






18. Discovered mitosis






19. The spore - producing individual or phase in the life cycle of a plant having alternation of generations






20. Responsible for extracting water and essential vitamins from the digested food






21. Plants with no phloem - xylem - roots - stems - or leaves; not as large or intricate as vascular plants






22. Organisms with cells that lack membranous - structurally discrete organelles






23. Strands of plant tissue containing xylem and phloem - sometimes surrounded by a fiber covering






24. Epidermis - vascular - ground






25. Produces and stores nutrients through photosynthesis






26. Any cell in a multicellular organism except the gametes






27. Continuous sequence of growth (interphase) and division (mitosis) in a cell






28. Include macrophages - B- cells - and T- cells






29. Organelle that 'packages' proteins to be secreted from the cell






30. Responsible for releasing several tropic hormones - which regulate the activity of other endocrine glands






31. Group of similarly constructed cells that perform the same function within a multicellular organism






32. Attaches to bones and is responsible for voluntary movements






33. A doubled rod of condensed chromatin; contains DNA that carries genetic information.






34. Useful for tearing and scratching






35. A haploid reproductive cell that unites with another haploid reproductive cell to form a zygote






36. Circulates through the vessels of the lymphatic system - which in turn assists the immune system.






37. Organelle containing enzymes used in cell digestion






38. Release of water from plants through stomata






39. Responsible for defending the body against disease - causing agents; white blood cells (macrophages - B- cells and T- cells) - lymph nodes






40. Structure within a cell that is responsible for a specific function






41. Brain and spinal cord






42. Ability of a cell to differentiate into multiple different types of cells






43. Cells that are able to differentiate into any type of cell in an organism






44. Makes up the brain - cranial nerves - spinal cord - and peripheral nervous system






45. Membrane - bound and fluid filled organelle in plant of fungal cells; also found in some bacterial - protist - and animal cells






46. Involuntary muscle that forms the contractile walls of the heart






47. Thin layer of plant tissue just below the bark which produces the xylem






48. Stage in which chromosomes are aligned in the center of the cell






49. Third phase of mitosis and of meiosis I and II - in which the sister chromatids separate and move toward the poles of the spindle






50. Your first line of defense against disease and helps regulate body temperature; skin - glands - hair - nails
