Cells and Endomembrane
Across
- 1. a protein with one or more convalently attached carbohydrates
- 5. a type of motor protein that associates into filaments that interact with actin filaments to cause cell contraction
- 7. a type of endocytosis in which large particulate substances or small organisms are taken up by a cell.
- 9. an optical instrument with lenses that refract visible light to magnify images of specimens
- 10. (euk cell) double membrane that surrounds the nucleus, perforated with pores that regulate traffic with the cytoplasm
- 12. a hollow rod composed of tubulin proteins that makes up part of the cytoskeleton in all eukaryotic cells and is found in cilia and flagella
Down
- 2. an organelle containing enzymes that transfer hydrogen atoms from various substrates to oxygen
- 3. a protein that interacts with cytoskeletal elements and other cell components, producing movement of the whole cell or parts of the cell
- 4. in animal cells, a transmembrane receptor protein with two subunits that interconnects the extracellular matrix and the cytoskeleton
- 6. a membrane-enclosed sac of hydrolytic enzymes found in the cytoplasm of animal cells and some protists
- 8. A type of intercellular junction in animal cells, consisting of proteins surrounding a pore that allows the passage of materials between cells.
- 11. a stack of membrane-bounded thylakoids in the chloroplast. Grana function in the light reactions of photosynthesis
