The cell
Across
- 3. genetic material
- 5. It stores and transport substances
- 7. A storage "sack" in the cytoplasm that holds food or wastes.
- 11. A type of plastid that performs photosynthesis.
- 12. A measure of disorder or randomness in a system.
- 15. Organisms that have more than one cell
- 17. lower the activation energy of reactions enough to allow them to occur safely in biological systems.
- 19. The theory that cells are the basic units of structure and function for all life.
- 21. Vesicles that contain enzymes to break stuff down, animal cells only.
- 22. A mode of transport that does not require the cell to use any energy.
- 23. The types of lipid which make up the cell membrane.
- 24. A cell organelle which manufactures the cells energy molecule, ATP.
Down
- 1. requires the cell to use energy in order to move molecules across the membrane.
- 2. Organism that has only one cell.
- 4. The sticky layer that holds plant cells together.
- 6. A protective layer that surrounds the cell membrane.
- 8. a network of membranous tubules within the cytoplasm of a eukaryotic cell, continuous with the nuclear membrane. It usually has ribosomes attached and is involved in protein and lipid synthesis.
- 9. Organelles that make protein.
- 10. A series of tubes and membranes that store, modify, and package the products received from the ER. The Golgi also manufactures some proteins of its own.
- 11. A complex network of proteins that strengthen the cell and keep it from rupturing.
- 13. The barrier around all cells which protects them from the outside world.
- 14. The movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
- 16. Stores DNA
- 18. A structure in the nucleus which assembles ribosomes
- 20. Jelly-like substance the cell organelles float in.
