Question

Vesicle transport along microtubules does not depend on which of the following. A) Kinesin B) Dynein C) ATP hydrolysis D) GTP hydrolysis Which of the following statements about connective tissues is false? A) Connective tissue contain osteoblasts and fibroblasts B) The extracellular matrix consists of collagen and fibroblasts C) Cartilage is a type of connective tissue D) Adipose tissue is a type of connective tissue Which of the following statements about collagen is false? The collagen proteinase cleaves the termini of pro collagen B) Cells bind collagen directly through cell surface integrin proteins C) Single collagen polypeptide chains are assembled into triple stranded D) Collagen provided tensile strength Which of the following is a function of gap junction A) To adhere cells to one another through cadherin proteins B) To allow the passage of ions between cells C) To prevent the lateral diffusion of proteins and lipids D) To adhere cells to the basal

Explanation / Answer

15. D) GTP hydrolysis

Explanation: Movement of kinesin along microtubules is powered by hydrolysis of ATP. Dyneins move along the opposite/ negative end of the microtubules.

16. B) The extracellular matrix consists of collagen and fibroblasts

Explanation: The extracellular matrix consists of ground substance and protein fibres.
