Fungi
Across
- 4. Organisms made of many cells working together.
- 7. Reproduction involving two parents joining genetic material.
- 8. The hidden underground network of fungus roots.
- 11. The main "brain" of a eukaryotic cell that holds the DNA.
- 13. Breaking down food inside the body (like humans do).
- 14. Complex cells that have a nucleus (includes plants, animals, and fungi).
- 15. Microscopic "seeds" that fungi release to reproduce.
- 18. The hard outer shells of insects, which also contain chitin.
- 19. Breaking down food outside the body (like fungi do).
- 20. Long, hairlike chains of fungal cells.
Down
- 1. Organisms made of only one single cell.
- 2. Organisms that must eat other things for energy.
- 3. Simple cells (like bacteria) that do NOT have a nucleus.
- 5. The tough material found in fungal cell walls and insect shells.
- 6. Asexual reproduction where a new cell grows off the side of the parent.
- 9. Cell division used for reproduction (makes spores or gametes).
- 10. Reproduction that requires only one parent.
- 12. Organisms that recycle nutrients by breaking down dead matter.
- 16. Tiny structures inside a cell (like mitochondria) that do specific jobs.
- 17. Cell division used for growth and repair (makes identical cells).
