  1. 2. storage area for food, water, and waste
  2. 6. very thin outer layer that controls what substances come into & out of the cell (plant and animal)
  3. 9. a threadlike structure in a cell's nucleus that contains the cells DNA (plant and animal)
  4. 10. receives proteins from the ER,packages them and sends them throughout the cell (plant and animal)
  5. 11. capture sunlight and use it to produce food in plant cells
  6. 12. "powerhouse",breaks down food particles to produce most of the cells energy (plant and animal)
Down
  1. 1. break down large food particles into smaller ones and recycle old cell parts
  2. 3. The area between the cell membrane and nucleus that contains a gel-like fluid and organelles (plant and animal)
  3. 4. factories that produce proteins that are important to a cells function (plant and animal)
  4. 5. cells control center that directs all of the cells activities and contains the DNA (plant and animal)
  5. 7. reticulum carry proteins and other materials from one part of the cell to another (plant and animal)
  6. 8. rigid outer layer of nonliving material that protects and supports plant cells (plant)
  7. 9. strands in the nucleus that contain the genetic material(DNA) which are the instructions for cell function (plant and animal)
