Cellular Processes
Across
- 4. the movement of molecules through a protein that opens and closes forcing the matter through the membrane
- 7. the movement of molecules through a cell membrane by one of several different methods
- 11. the organelle responsible for controlling what enters and leaves the cell to maintain homeostasis; made of a phospholipid bilayer with proteins and cholesterol throughout
- 12. any movement through the cell membrane that does require the cell to use energy; used to move matter from low to high concentration or very large matter
- 13. the movement of water directly through the cell membrane
- 14. the movement of molecules into the cell when the cell membrane wraps around them and pulls them in
- 15. the movement of molecules through a protein channel
- 17. any movement through the cell membrane that does not use energy; used to move matter from high to low concentration
- 18. the movement of molecules out of the cell when the cell membrane opens up allowing matter out
Down
- 1. the organelle that makes glucose for plant cells
- 2. allowing only some things through
- 3. the organelle that breaks down glucose to release its energy and power the cell
- 5. the series of chemical reactions that break down glucose releasing the stored energy as ATP
- 6. the movement of small, non-water molecules, directly through the cell membrane
- 8. a simpler sugar needed for energy
- 9. the series of chemical reactions that makes glucose
- 10. adenosine triphosphate; the energy cells need to run their cellular processes
- 16. a stable internal environment
