Plant & Animal Cells
Across
- 4. The organelle found in plant cells that converts sun energy into chemical energy.
- 6. A flexible barrier that surrounds the cell (and organelles within) and controls which substances can enter or leave.
- 7. The jelly-like substance that fills the cell and surrounds the organelles. This is where many metabolic reactions take place.
- 8. A tiny cell structure that has a specific job to keep the cell alive (like how your organs keep you alive).
- 9. The control center of the cell. It houses the cell's genetic material (DNA).
Down
- 1. The "powerhouse" of the cell which performs cellular respiration, converting glucose and oxygen into usable energy.
- 2. An organelle with a network of membranes that processes substances like proteins and lipids.
- 3. A large, membrane-bound sac that stores water, nutrients, and waste products.
- 5. A rigid, protective layer found outside the cell membrane, primarily in plants, fungi, and bacteria. It provides structural support and protection.
