Cells and Cell Theory
Across
- 1. The diffusion of water.
- 5. Large organic compound that is made of oxygen, carbon, nitrogen and sometimes sulfur.
- 8. Oragnelle that controls what goes in and out of a cell.
- 11. Type of active transport where the cell releases a large substance with the help of the vesicle.
- 12. Makes up the internal framework of the cell, gives cell its shape
- 14. Jelly-like substance where organelles are found.
- 16. Substances cannot pass through the cell membrane on their own and therefore need the help of a transport protein.
- 19. Type of active transport that engulfs substances by surrounding it with the cell membrane.
- 21. A cell's membrane is _____ permeable, it allows some substances to pass through while others cannot.
- 22. Green pigment found in the chloroplast.
- 23. Type of cell that has no nucleus or membrane bound structures and is found in unicellular organisms.
- 25. Tiny cell structure that carries out a specific function within the cell.
- 28. Looked at living cells for the first time by looking at a drop of pond water.
- 30. Produces proteins
- 33. Powerhouse of the cell, converts food into energy
- 34. Acts as the brain of the cell
- 36. Has ribosomes attached and makes proteins
- 37. Package and sort proteins
- 40. Cell that fights and fights infections
- 41. Type of transport where substances move from low concentration to high.
- 43. Rigid layer that surrounds a plant cell, give the cell its shape.
- 46. Type of protein that speeds up a chemical reaction
- 48. Contains many tubes to soak up water, contains no chloroplasts
Down
- 2. Was a botanist who concluded that all plants are made up of cells
- 3. Process by which molecules move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
- 4. DNA and RNA are examples of
- 6. Organelle that stores liquid and other substances.
- 7. Said that all cells come from other living cells.
- 9. Contains a lot of chloroplasts to change sunlight into energy
- 10. Controls what goes in and out of the cell nucleus
- 13. No ribosomes attached and processes other cellular substances.
- 15. Cell that can contract and extend, has a lot of mitochondria
- 17. A zoologist who concluded that all animals are made up of cells.
- 18. Capture energy from sunlight and converts it to energy.
- 20. Type of transport that does not require energy.
- 24. Compound that contains any element besides carbon.
- 26. Cell that carries oxygen around the body, has no nucleus
- 27. Organic compound that contains hydrogen, oxygen and carbon that is responsible for short term energy
- 29. Type of cell that contains a nucleus and is found in multicellular organisms
- 31. Structure that makes ribosomes
- 32. Organelle that helps move substances around the cell.
- 35. Basic unit of structure and function in living things.
- 38. Organelle that breaks down food, waste and worn out parts.
- 39. Compound that always contains hydrogen, and carbon
- 42. Most chemical reactions cannot occur without this inorganic compound.
- 44. Fats, oils and waxes that are responsible for long term energy
- 45. Long and branched, sends messages to the brain
- 47. Saw cells for the first time by looking at a piece of cork.
