Which of the following are formed when the plasma membrane surrounds a particle outside of the cell?

A. Golgi bodies

B. Rough endoplasmic reticulum

C. Secretory vesicles

D. Endocytic vesicles

Answer Explanation:

Endocytosis is a process by which cells absorb larger molecules or even tiny organisms, such as bacteria, that would not be able to pass through the plasma membrane. Endocytic vesicles containing molecules from the extracellular environment often undergo further processing once they enter the cell.

Therefore, the Correct Answer is D.

  • Q #1: What types of reaction is Cu (s) + 2AgNO3(aq) → 2Ag(s) + Cu(NO3)2(aq)?

    A. Single replacement

    B. Double replacement

    C. Synthesis

    D. Decomposition

    Answer Explanation

    This is a single replacement reaction in which copper replaces silver. The copper combines with the nitrate ions, and the silver precipitates out. Single replacement reactions have the general form of

    A + BC AC + B. Double replacement reactions have the general form of AB + CD AD + CB. Synthesis reactions have the general form of A + B AB. Decomposition reactions have the general form AB A+B.

  • Q #2: Which of the following is an example of a chemical change?

    A. Releasing compressed gas to make a bottle-rocket launch

    B. Adding water to clay to make slip

    C. Crystalizing honey to make candy

    D. Including baking soda in a recipe to make it less sour

    Answer Explanation

    A chemical change involves a chemical reaction and new substances are produced. When baking soda is added to something sour (acidic) it neutralizes the acid and forms new molecules, in this case carbon dioxide and water. A physical change does not produce new substances. Phase changes such as evaporation and sublimation are physical changes. Changing the ratio of ingredients in a mixture, like adding more water to clay, does not change it chemically, but it can change some of the mixture's physical properties.
