CELLS GLOSSARY
Across
- 5. Rigid later of cells found only in plants
- 6. Part of mitochondria (the folds) where the electron transfer chain occurs
- 7. The stage in the cell cycle where the replicated chromosomes are checked for mistakes
- 8. Full name for DNA
- 9. Respiration in the presence of oxygen
- 11. An enzyme which takes large molecules and breaks them up
- 18. A form of active transport where fluids and nutrients are ingested by cells
- 20. Site of photosynthesis
- 21. Pigment found in plants which gives the plant it's green colour
- 22. Part of chloroplast where the light stage occurs
- 23. The stage of the cell cycle where the replicated chromosome is split into 2 cells
- 24. The model explaining how enzymes work where the enzyme is a rigid structure
- 25. A specific shaped part of an enzyme where the substrate fits
- 26. The movement of materials from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration
- 28. The stage in the cell cycle where the DNA is replicated
- 30. A solution with a low concentration of solute, therefore a high concentration of water
- 31. The movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration which doen't require energy
- 32. A slolution with a high concentration of solute, therefore a low concentration of water
- 33. A membrane that allows some substances to pass through it but not others
- 34. Biological catalysts which speed up biochemical reactions in an organism
- 35. The enzyme model where the enzyme changes its shape after bonding with the substrate
- 37. The changing in the shape of the active site of an enzyme, so the substrate can no longer fit- caused by high temperatures and incorrect pH
- 38. Part of the mitochondria where the citric acid cycle occurs
- 39. The net movement of water through a semi-permeable membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration
- 40. The movement of molecules from an area of low concentration to an area of high which requires energy
Down
- 1. A form of passive transport where molecules move across the cell membrane through the membrane proteins
- 2. Respiration with limited oxygen
- 3. layer Part of the lead where most chloroplasts are found, so most photosynthesis occurs here
- 4. A form of active transport by which a cell uses it's plasma membrane to engulf a large solid particle
- 10. Part of a cell where proteins are modified and packaged
- 12. Organelle in the cell where respiration occurs
- 13. Part of cell where protein synthesis occurs
- 14. Part of chloroplast where the dark stage occurs
- 15. The name that describes that fact that the new DNA molecule being one strand new and one strand old
- 16. enzyme An enzyme that takes small molecules and joins them together
- 17. A cell that is limp and floppy
- 19. Poisons that bind to the active site of enzymes and stop them working
- 22. The stage in the cell cycle where the cell grows and does its job
- 27. A solution which has the same osmolarity or solute concnetration as another splution
- 29. The copying of DNA before the cell divides
- 36. A cell that is it is swollen, bloated, puffed up or inflated
