Across
  1. 4. Process which occurs after mitosis where the cell splits and two daughter cells are created, each with one nucleus
  2. 5. Growth of plants in response to light
  3. 6. Tissue produced inside the seeds of most flowering plants surrounds the embryo and provides nutrition in the form of starch, oils, and protein
  4. 7. First embryonic leaf (leaves) of a seeding which emerge at the time of germination
  5. 9. Control of the shoot tip over axillary bud outgrowth which allows a plant to grow up more than it should grow outward
  6. 13. First root of the plant which elongates during germination and forms the primary root
  7. 15. Single piece of spring-like DNA that contains many genes, regulatory elements, and other nucleotide sequences
  8. 16. Third stage of mitosis
  9. 18. Membrane allows water molecules, but not solute molecules to pass
  10. 19. Connective, functiona7lly supportive framework of a biological cell, tissue or organ
  11. 20. Second stage of mitosis
  12. 24. Process by which a plant grows from a seed
  13. 25. Plant cells which is limp through a reduction of pressure inside the cell
  14. 26. Process of converting light energy to chemical energy and storing it in the bonds of sugar
Down
  1. 1. Movement of dissolved substance from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration
  2. 2. Also known as G₁ phase; growth phase that allows cells to continue to carry out normal functions and continue growing
  3. 3. Solute concentration is lower outside of the cell rather than inside
  4. 8. Organic compounds produced within the plant
  5. 10. Area in the cell where microtubules are produced
  6. 11. First stage of mitosis
  7. 12. Also Known As G₂ phase; allows cells to continue to carry out normal functions and continue growing
  8. 14. Solute concentration is greater outside of the cell than inside
  9. 17. Forth stage of mitosis
  10. 21. Compound formed as a result of glycolysis
  11. 22. loss or evaporation of water from plant leaves through stomata
  12. 23. Process by which a cell releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen
