Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Flagella are composed of microtubules that move in a whip-like motion to propel the cell.

Answer:A 
 Microtubules are components of the cytoskeleton that are composed of tubulin and are involved in various cellular processes, including cell division and intracellular transport.

Answer:B 
 ATP is a molecule that provides energy to cells through hydrolysis of its phosphate bonds.

Answer:C 
 Glycolysis is a metabolic pathway that breaks down glucose into pyruvate, producing ATP and NADH in the process.

Answer:D 
 The electron transport chain is a series of protein complexes in the mitochondrial inner membrane that carries out oxidative phosphorylation, generating ATP from the flow of electrons.

Answer:E 
 The plasma membrane is the outermost layer of the cell that regulates the entry and exit of molecules and ions.

Answer:G 
 Cristae are the folded inner membranes of the mitochondria that contain the electron transport chain and are involved in oxidative phosphorylation.

Answer:H 
 The citric acid cycle (also known as the Krebs cycle) is a metabolic pathway that oxidizes acetyl-CoA to produce ATP and electron carriers such as NADH and FADH2.
