Across
- an organic compound made up of a phosphorous atom surrounded by three oxygen atoms
- a jellylike material in most cells that surrounds the nucleus
- able to allow some fluids and particles to pass through, but not others
- The Basic units of all living things
- round or rod-shaped structures in a cell in which food molecules are broken down to produce energy
- the movement of molecules across a cell membrane without the use of energy by the cell
- organelles within the nucleus where ribosomal RNA is produced
- a series of flattened sacs within a cell where materials are modified and distributed to other parts of the cell
- movement of water across a semipermeable membrane from a high concentration to a low concentration
- second phase of photosynthesis, during which light is not needed
- movement of materials through a cell membrane using energy
- unable to be penetrated
- the process of taking in oxygen and releasing carbon dioxide
- the part of the cell that controls many of the functions of the cell and contains the organism's DNA
- carbohydrates woven together to make up the cell wall in plants, algae, and fungi
Down
- the movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration
- small structures inside the cell that have specialized functions
