- I metabolize, detoxify oxygen, and send signals within the cell
- I am the digestive system of the cell, so it decomposes materials coming in from the outside of the cell and to digest obsolete components of the cell
- I help maintain water balance in cells and to isolate or store substances that might be harmful to the cell (like a vacuum)
- I organize, protect, store, and copy DNA inside of the cell
Down
- I produce and assemble the cell’s ribosomes, which biologically synthesizes protein
- I compact DNA to be able to fit inside of the nucleus
- I structure and support the cell, but also help regulate cell division
- I perform protein synthesis
- I transport, sort, and modify both protein and lipid from the rough endoplasmic reticulum
- I hold together all the internal components of the cells to protect them from damage
- I contain chlorophyll to allow plants to capture energy from the sun
- I protect all organelles inside of the cell and shield them for toxins outside of it
