plant cells 2021-02-09
Across
- stores the molecules required for cellular processes and is also responsible for giving the cell its shape.
- transport, package, and modify cells
- provides protection for the cell
- holds DNA
- makes chemical energy
- They break down excess or worn-out cell parts. They may be used to destroy invading viruses and bacteria.
- structure that helps cells maintain their shape and internal organization, and it also provides mechanical support that enables cells to carry out essential functions like division and movement.
Down
- creates proteins
- move water relative to the cell in a regular movement of the cilia.
- carry out photosynthesis
- involved with the production, folding, quality control and despatch of some proteins
- aid in cell division
- moves the cell
- helps maintain water balance
- largely associated with lipid (fat) manufacture and metabolism and steroid production hormone production.
15 Clues: holds DNA • moves the cell • creates proteins • aid in cell division • makes chemical energy • carry out photosynthesis • helps maintain water balance • provides protection for the cell • transport, package, and modify cells • move water relative to the cell in a regular movement of the cilia. • ...
