cells

4. : a self-regulating process where an organism maintains a stable internal environment despite external changes
5. a cell division process in eukaryotic cells where a single cell divides into two genetically identical daughter cells
8. : an organelle found in large numbers in most cells, in which the biochemical processes of respiration and energy production occur.
10. : a complex network of interconnected membranes and tubules found in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells
13. : a crucial cellular structure found within all living cells, serving as the site for protein synthesis
15. a space or vesicle within the cytoplasm of a cell, enclosed by a membrane and typically containing fluid.
16. : a molecule that contains the genetic instructions that make each species uniqu

1. : essential organelles in nearly all eukaryotic cells, often called the "powerhouses of the cell" because they generate most of the chemical energy needed to power cellular processes
2. : a living organism of the kind exemplified by trees, shrubs, herbs, grasses, ferns, and mosses
3. : the exchange of gases, specifically oxygen and carbon dioxide, between an organism and its environment, and the subsequent use of oxygen to produce energy within cells. It encompasses both breathing (gas exchange in the lungs)
6. apparatus : a cell organelle that helps process and package proteins and lipid molecules, especially proteins destined to be exported from the cell
7. wall: a structural layer surrounding some cells, located outside the cell membrane
9. : an optical instrument used for viewing very small objects, such as mineral samples or animal or plant cells, typically magnified several hundred times
11. a double-membrane bound organelle found in plants, algae, and some other eukaryotic organisms
12. : a living organism that feeds on organic matter, typically having specialized sense organs and nervous system and able to respond rapidly to stimuli.
14. : a member of a large group of unicellular microorganisms which have cell walls but lack organelles and an organized nucleus, including some that can cause disease
