CELL CROSSWORD
Across
- 3. or multicellular organisms, such as yeast, plants,and animals, composed of eukaryotic cells, which contain a true necleus and membrane-bound oganelles.
- 5. that have one or more flagella.
- 6. framework found within the cytoplasm composed of microtubles and microfilaments.
- 8. unit off all organisms; all living things are composed of cells.
- 9. rigid structures located outside the plasma membrane of plants, fungi, most bacteria, and some protists; provides support and protection.
- 10. that span the plasma membrane creating a selectively permeable membrane that regulates which molecules enter and leave a cell.
- 11. of plants organelles that used for storage of starches, lipids, or pigments.
- 13. that contain digestive enzymes; digest excess or worn out organelles, food particles, and engulfed viruses or bacteria.
- 14. that uses a beam of electrons instead of light to magfiny structures up to 500,000 times actual size; allows scientists to veiw structures within a cell.
- 15. model of the plasma membrane whrer molecules are free to move sideways within a lipid bilayer.
- 17. strands of DNA found in the eukaryotic cells necleus; condense to form chromosomes.
- 19. in eukaryotic cell nucleus that produces ribosomes.
- 20. that uses light and a series of lenses to magnify objects in steps; can magnify an object up too 1500 times its orginal size.
- 21. theory that(1) all organisms are composed of one or more cells,(2) the cell is the basic unit of structure and organization of organisms,(3)all cells come from preexisting cells.
- 22. in eukaryotic cells with a series of highly folded membranes surrounded in cytoplasm; site of cellular chemical reactions; can either be rough (with ribosomes) or smooth (without ribosomes).
- 24. membrane-bound organelles that transform energy stored in food molecules; has a highly folded inner membrane that prduces energy- storing molecules.
- 25. pigment in plants and some protists that required for photosynthesis; absorbs most wavelengths of light execpt for green.
- 26. in eukaryotic cells with a system of flattened tubbular membranes; sorts and packs proteins and sends then to their appropriate destinations.
- 27. with an attached phosphate group; plasma membranes are composed of phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins.
- 28. solid proteins fibers that provide structural support for eukaryotic cells.
Down
- 1. charged cnter of an atom composed of neutrons and positively charged protons, and surrounded by negatively charged electrons(P.174) In eukaryotic cells, the central membrane-bound organelle that manages cellular funtions and contains DNA.
- 2. organisms, such as bacteria, composed of prokaryotic cell, prokaryotic cells lack internal membrane-bound structures.
- 4. space in the cytoplasm of cells used for the temporary storage of materials.
- 6. fluid in cells that is the site of numerous chemical reactions; in eukaryotic cells, it suspends the cell's organelles.
- 7. of the plasma membrane that maintains homeostasis within a cell by allowing some molecules, into the cell while keeping others out.
- 8. organelles found in the cells of green plants and some protists; capture light enegry and converted it to chemical energy.
- 12. boundary between thhe cell and its environment; allows materials such as water and nutrients to enter and waste products to leave.
- 16. structures with particular funtions within eukaryatic cells.
- 18. organelles in the nucleus where proteins are assembled.
- 23. hollow cylinders made of protein that provide structral support for eukaryotic cells.
- 25. numerous, hairlike projections composed of pairs of microtubules; frequently aid in locomotion.
