Cell Biology and Metabolic Processes Quiz

Mitochondria generate ATP through aerobic respiration.

The Golgi apparatus modifies and packages proteins for secretion.

ATP serves as the primary energy currency of the cell.

The endoplasmic reticulum is involved in lipid synthesis.

The main function of mitochondria is cellular respiration.

Helicase unwinds the DNA double helix during replication.

Phagocytosis is the process of engulfing large particles by forming vesicles.

Peroxisomes are responsible for detoxification and drug metabolism in liver cells.

Ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis in the cell.

DNA polymerase adds nucleotides to the growing DNA strand during replication.

Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell.

Transcription is not a stage of cellular respiration.

The cell membrane does not synthesize proteins.

Lysosomes function in the digestion and recycling of cellular waste.

Fermentation occurs in the absence of oxygen, producing lactic acid or ethanol.
