biology
Across
- 1. A cell structure that forms a maze of passageways in which proteins and other materials are carried from one part of the cell to another.
- 6. A system of membranes that modifies and packages proteins for export by the cell
- 8. Energy-rich organic compounds, such as fats, oils, and waxes, that are made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
- 9. transport the movement of materials through a cell membrane using energy
- 10. An organelle found in plant and algae cells where photosynthesis occurs
- 12. The study of life
- 13. A type of protein that speeds up a chemical reaction in a living thing
- 14. Diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane
- 17. organelle containing digestive enzymes
- 18. A rigid layer of nonliving material that surrounds the cells of plants and some other organisms.
- 20. compoundmade up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms; major source of energy for the human body
- 21. cell structure that controls which substances can enter or leave the cell.
Down
- 2. Energy-requiring process that moves material across a cell membrane against a concentration difference
- 3. An organelle found in plant and algae cells where photosynthesis occurs
- 4. Cell organelle that stores materials such as water, salts, proteins, and carbohydrates
- 5. Cell organelle that converts the chemical energy stored in food into compounds that are more convenient for the cell to use
- 7. containing hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon, and phosphorus
- 11. site The part of an enzyme or antibody where the chemical reaction occurs.
- 15. A simple compound whose molecules can join together to form polymers
- 16. Control center of the cell
- 19. The basic unit of life and the building block of tissues and organs
