Cells
Across
- 3. This is where photosynthesis happens. Photosynthesis is a chemical reaction that makes food for the plant using sunlight.
- 4. the basic unit of structure and function in living things
- 5. contain enzymes that break down materials. They act as the cell's waste disposal.
- 6. Transports materials throughout the cell through tunnels or passageways.
- 8. stores water in cells, one large one in plant cells
- 10. A tiny cell structure that carries out a specific function within the cell.
- 12. This is the jelly like substance where the chemical reactions in the cell take place.
- 13. instrument used to observe cells
- 14. a cell organelle that receives, stores, and packages materials to be transported out of the cell
Down
- 1. structures that make proteins - some are free-floating and some are attached to the rough ER
- 2. This is where respiration happens. Respiration is a chemical reaction that uses Oxygen, combines it with the glucose you eat and transfers energy to your cells.
- 3. provides support for plant cells. It is made of a tough fiber called cellulose which makes it rigid.
- 7. Living things are made of cells; the cell is the smallest unit of life; cells come from preexisting cells
- 9. This is the barrier around the cell. It controls what comes in and out of the cell.
- 11. Controls the cell and contains DNA (genetic information)
