The Cell in Action
Across
- 2. Chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell during this phase of mitosis
- 4. Cells make a copy of all their chromosomes during this part of the cell cycle
- 6. Type of cell with a nucleus, chromosomes are in the shape of an X
- 10. The movement of particles across a cell membrane from LOW concentration to HIGH concentration
- 12. The cell finishes dividing and separates into two cells during this phase of the cell cycle
- 14. Cell division in prokaryotic cells
- 15. Holds all our genetic information
- 16. The organelle in which photosynthesis takes place
- 17. The movement of particles across a cell membrane without the use of energy
- 18. Cell division in eukaryotic cells
- 19. Chromosomes move to opposite sides of the cell during this phase of mitosis
- 21. Active transport of particles out of a cell
- 23. The process of plants using sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to make food
- 24. The structures that contain DNA
- 25. The organelle in which cellular respiration takes place
- 26. The smallest structural and functional unit of an organism
Down
- 1. Breakdown of food without the use of oxygen
- 3. The movement of particles from HIGH concentration to LOW concentration
- 5. Active transport of particles into a cell
- 7. Type of cell with no nucleus, chromosomes are in a single circle
- 8. Using oxygen to produce energy from food
- 9. The diffusion of water through cell membranes
- 11. The nuclear membrane forms around each set of chromosomes and the chromosomes unwind during this phase of mitosis
- 13. The process of plants using sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to make food
- 20. chromosomes condense during this phase of mitosis
- 22. Main pigment in photosynthesis
