Plant Cell

1. The basic unit of life.
5. One of the rod-shaped structures in the cytoplasm that supplies the cell with energy.
7. Cells with no nucleus or organelles.
8. A gel-like substance that surrounds a cell's nucleus and is the place where most cell activities occur.
9. A cell's outer covering, which gives the cell shape and helps control materials that move in and out of the cell.
10. A system that aids transport between the nucleus and other parts of the cell.

1. A stiff covering outside the cell membrane of a plant cell.
2. Any living thing that can carry out life activities on its own.
3. A vast system of interconnected, infolded sacks that produce and transport materials through the cell.
4. The largest, most visible part of a cell which has its own membrane and is the control center of the cell's activities.
6. A long strand in the nucleus that stores directions for cell activities-act as blueprints for transferring information.
11. A sac-like space in the cell's cytoplasm for storing materials such as food or waste.
14. A small organelle composed of cytoplasmic granules; sites of protein synthesis.
15. A green chemical in plant cells that allows plants to use the Sun's energy for making food.
