cell processes and cycle
Across
- 2. (8): Organism that eats other organisms for energy.
- 5. (10): Inherited trait that improves an organism's chance of survival.
- 6. (8): Site of protein synthesis.
- 8. (8): Organism that makes its own food, usually through photosynthesis.
- 11. (8): Organelle containing digestive enzymes to break down waste.
- 12. (9): Change in the heritable characteristics of populations over generations.
- 13. (6): Specialized cell that transmits nerve impulses.
- 15. (14): Process of converting light energy into chemical energy.
- 18. (8): A sudden change in the DNA sequence.
- 21. Thin layer surrounding all cells, controlling entry and exit.
- 24. (9): Cell with a true nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.
- 26. (9): Interacting community of organisms and their environment
- 27. (11): Organelle in plants where photosynthesis occurs.

Down
- 1. (9): Close, long-term interaction between two species.
- 2. (10): Structure made of DNA and protein found in the nucleus.
- 3. (9): The jelly-like fluid that fills a cell.
- 4. (11): Process of producing cellular energy (ATP) using oxygen.
- 7. (7): The control center of the cell, containing DNA.
- 9. (6): Protein that acts as a biological catalyst.
- 10. (12): The "powerhouse" of the cell; produces ATP.
- 14. (9): Tiny structures within a cell that perform specific functions.
- 16. (7): Cell division resulting in two identical daughter cells.
- 17. (10): Single-celled organism lacking a nucleus
- 19. (7): The natural home of an organism.
- 20. (10): Protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen.
- 22. (6): Different forms of a gene.
- 23. (3): The molecule that carries genetic information
- 25. (7): Cell division that produces gametes.
