  1. 2. The jelly-like substance that fills the cell and is where most chemical reactions occur.
  2. 4. A tail-like structure that enables some types of cell to move.
  3. 5. Cells that DO NOT contain their DNA in a nucleus
  4. 9. The part of the cell where protein synthesis takes place.
  5. 10. Cells that DO contain their DNA in a nucleus
  6. 11. A partially permeable membrane that controls the movement of substances into and out of the cell.
  7. 13. Cell division of prokaryotic cells
  8. 15. Basic unit of life

  1. 1. A sub-cellular structure that is filled with cell sap to keep the cell rigid. They are a permanent structure in plant cells.
  2. 3. A rigid structure that surrounds plant cells and bacterial cells. It strengthens the cell and provides support.
  3. 6. A sub-cellular structure that contains the pigment chlorophyll. The chlorophyll absorbs light to provide energy for photosynthesis.
  4. 7. An example of a prokaryotic cell
  5. 8. A sub-cellular structure that contains genetic material and controls the activities of the cell.
  6. 12. The site of aerobic respiration, a chemical reaction which releases energy for the cell.
  7. 14. A small, circular section of DNA that can be passed from one bacteria to another to exchange genetic information.
