- I describe how a thing is built, or what it's made of.
- I am what you do to a slide after you put it on the microscope stage. If you do this correctly the image will become clear and sharp.
- I am an organelle found in both a & p cells. I burn food & release energy, like a fire. I am "mighty".
- I am an organelle found in a & p cells. I am the "skin" of the cell.
- I am an organelle found in both a & p cells. I make proteins and am like the "construction worker" of the cell.
- I am an organelle found in a & p cells. I am like the "post office" of the cell.
- I am an organelle found only in plant cells. I protect the organelles and help give the plant structure & shape.
- I am an organelle found in a & p cells. I am the "brain" of the cell, give directions, and contain DNA.
- I am an organelle found only in plant cells. I collect sunlight and turn it into food.
- I am something's job or purpose.
18 Clues: I am something's job or purpose. • I am the part of the microscope you set the slide on. • I describe how a thing is built, or what it's made of. • I am a tool used to see extremely small things like cells. • I am an organelle found in a & p cells. I am the "skin" of the cell. • I am an organelle found in a & p cells. I am like the "post office" of the cell. • ...
Photosynthesis & Transport in Plants 2018-04-23
Across
- the vessel that transports amino acids and sugars
- the vessel that transports water and mineral ions
- only happens in the prescence of light
- woody material making up the wall of the xylem
- instrument used to measure transpiration
- middle of the leaf containing palisade cells and spongy cells
- acts as a barrier preventing entry of disease casuing microoganisms
- hollow central space in plant through which water passes
Down
- green pigment in chloroplast
- required for photosynthesis
- mineral needed for making DNA
- loss of water by leaves
- the term given to a cell when its contents shrink so much that the membrane and cytoplasm split away from the cell wall and gaps appear between the wall and the membrane
- mineral needed for making amino acids
- mineral needed for making chlorophyll
- the process by which water moves into and out of cells
- opened and closed by guard cells
- the state a plant is in when cells are turgid
- the colour of hydrogencarbonate in high concentrations of CO2
