All About Cells
Across
- 4. enzymes fit together with their substrates perfectly
- 5. fluid escapes cell making it skinny
- 7. adenosine triphosphate (energy)
- 8. the process of making molecules using absorbed molecules
- 10. break down molecules
- 12. spiral strands of protein molecules that form a tubelike structure
- 17. the powerhouse of the cell
- 18. holds the main DNA, "control center" of the cell
- 20. the process to get substances out of the cell
- 23. large protein molecules in all cells which exert strict control over which chemical reactions occur and when
- 25. an enzyme that lowers the activation energy required to start a reaction
- 26. non-membrane-bounded organelles responsible for protein synthesis
Down
- 1. the center of the nucleus where RNA is made and ribosomes are assembled
- 2. build up molecules
- 3. fluid goes into cell making it big/swollen
- 6. basic units of structure & function for all life
- 9. membrane bound "sac"
- 11. the post office of the cell
- 13. a rigid structure on the outside of certain cells
- 14. the process of getting things into a cell
- 15. short, numerous cell projections that move rhythmically back and fourth
- 16. ER that is dotted with ribosomes
- 19. many fibers that hold cell together, keep its shape,aid its movement
- 21. the study of cells
- 22. jellylike fluid inside the cell that keeps organelles suspended
- 24. the measure of disorder
