Plant & Animal Cell
Across
- 1. jellylike substance that contains dissolved molecular building blocks- such as proteins, nucleic acids, minerals, and ions
- 4. supply energy to the cell by converting food molecules into usable energy
- 7. helps in protein folding and packages and creates proteins; covered with ribosomes
- 8. divides small materials from the rest of the cytoplasm and transports these materials from place to place within a cell
- 10. makes lipids and breaks down drugs and alcohol; without ribosomes
- 14. filled with watery fluid that strengthens the cell; takes up most of the space in the cell
- 16. rigid layer that gives protection, support, and shape to the cell
Down
- 1. made up of short-tubules arranged in a circle. Before an animal cell divides, the centrosome doubles; small regions of cytoplasm that produces micro-tubules, help in animal cell division
- 2. defends a cell from bacteria and viruses; breaks down damaged or worn-out cell parts
- 3. tiny organelles that link amino acids together to form proteins
- 5. controls most of the functions of a eukaryotic cell
- 6. fluid-filled sack used for storage of materials needed by a cell; such as water, ion, and food molecules
- 9. processes, sorts, and delivers proteins
- 11. assists in cell division; provides strength to the cell; provides shape to the cell
- 12. site for synthesis, storage, and transportation of melanin
- 13. forms a boundary between the cell and the outside environment and controls the passage of materials into and out the cell
- 15. organelles that carry out photosynthesis; they convert solar energy into energy-rich molecules
