- 4. main substance in the walls of plant cells, helping plants to remain stiff and upright.
- 6. is the ability to detect and respond to changes in the internal or external environment
- 7. a tiny structure where amino acids are assembled to make protein molecules
- 8. Power center of cell
- 10. Have no membrane-covered nucleus, no membrane-covered organelles and are bacteria
- 12. The control center of the cell
- 17. green pigment that plants use to make food during a process called photosynthesis.
- 18. is an action by an organism or part of an organism causing change of position or place
- 19. is the process of an individual organism growing organically
- 21. chemical reactions in cells that break down nutrient molecules and release energy for metabolism
- 22. temporary storage of food, enzymes and waste products, also helps support the shape of the plant
Down
- 1. outer layer of all cells
- 2. a single-celled microorganism that is a member of the Fungi kingdom
- 5. permanent increase in size and dry mass by an increase in cell number or cell size or both
- 9. a plastid that contains chlorophyll and in which photosynthesis takes place.
- 11. Have membrane-covered nuclei, membrane-covered organelles and are all cells except bacteria
- 13. a rigid, external layer which provides structural support and rigidity
- 14. small, circular, double-stranded DNA molecule distinct from a cell's chromosomal DNA.
- 15. is the process that makes more of the same kind of organism
- 16. a jelly-like fluid contained in the cell that holds the organelles.
- 20. takes in materials for energy, growth and
