Across
  1. 4. First Stage of Mitosis
  2. 7. Plant cell which is limp through a reduction of pressure inside the cell.
  3. 9. Process by which a cell releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen.
  4. 10. A single piece of coiled DNA that contains many genes
  5. 11. Also known as the g1 phase
  6. 13. Region of DNA is typically found in the center of a chromosome which links two sister chromatids.
  7. 15. First Embryonic Leaf (Leaves) of a Seedling That Emerge at the time of Germination
  8. 16. Fourth Stage of Mitosis
  9. 17. Ordered a set of events resulting in cell growth and division into two daughter cells.
  10. 19. Tissue produced inside the seeds of most flowering plants which surrounds the embryo and provides nutrition in the form of starch, oils, and protein
  11. 20. Phase Phase in which the cell replicates its DNA
  12. 22. Second Stage of Mitosis
  13. 24. First root of the plant which elongates during germination and forms the primary root
  14. 25. Solute concentration is the same on either side of the cell membrane and results in incipient plasmolysis
Down
  1. 1. Process by which new cells are created
  2. 2. Process in which cells lose water in a hypertonic solution
  3. 3. Transports chemical energy within cells for metabolism
  4. 5. Phase of the cell cycle is when a cell spends the majority of its time and performs most of its normal functions in preparation for cell division.
  5. 6. Spindle Fibers form during mitosis and segregate chromosomes.
  6. 8. One copy of a duplicated chromosome which is usually joined to the other copy by a centrosome
  7. 12. Area in the cell where microtubules are produced
  8. 14. Process of converting light energy to chemical energy and storing it in bonds of sugar.
  9. 15. Process which occurs after mitosis where the cell splits and two daughter cells are created, each with one nucleus.
  10. 18. Chemical product of photosynthesis
  11. 21. Process by which a plant grows from a seed
  12. 23. Third Stage of Mitosis
