Cells: Unit 1A
Across
- 1. Makes the cell's energy (ATP).
- 4. Huge water filled organelle; Keeps cell pressurized & maintains shape.
- 6. The process that plants perform to make their own food. The plant take in sunlight, Carbon Dioxide (CO2), and Water (H2O) to produce glucose (food) & Oxygen (O2).
- 7. A membrane-bound organelle that holds the cell's DNA; Has pores/holes
- 11. Gel-like material that holds organelles
- 14. Stores proteins made by attached ribosomes.
- 15. Made of microtubules; Gives shape to cell & moves organelles around.
- 17. Wall Strong, supporting layer around the cell membrane in plants, algae, & some bacteria.
- 19. Stores water in the cell.
- 20. Filled with chlorophyll; Site of photosynthesis.
- 22. Pair of bundled tubes; Organize cell division.
- 24. Cell with NO nucleus (bacteria).
Down
- 2. Spherical structure in the nucleus; Site of ribosome synthesis.
- 3. Builds lipids & carbohydrates.
- 5. Apparatus Packages and sends out materials from cell.
- 8. Synthesizes proteins in the cell; Made of RNA.
- 9. DNA; The cell's genetic material not contained in a nucleus (Nucleoid in Bacteria).
- 10. Additional outer covering that protects the cell besides the cell membrane and cell wall.
- 12. Respiration The process where ALL ORGANISMS break down food (glucose) into energy in cells. The organism takes in Oxygen (O2) and glucose (C6H12O6) to produce Carbon Dioxide (CO2), Water (H2O) and Energy (ATP).
- 13. Lipid & protein layer around the cytoplasm; Controls what comes in and out of the cell.
- 15. The smallest unit that is capable of performing life functions.
- 16. Cell with a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.
- 18. Whip like tail that aids the cell in cell movement.
- 21. Hair-like structure on the surface of the cell that attach to other bacterial cells.
- 23. Organelles filled with digestive enzymes; Digests waste and food.
