Across
- 2. A type of cell division that results in two identical daughter cells, important for growth and repair.
- 3. Body system responsible for absorbing nutrients
- 6. Diffusion of water
- 10. A response that reduces the effect of a stimulus (e.g., body temperature regulation).
- 13. The process by which cells become specialized to perform specific functions.
- 14. The ability of an organism to maintain a stable internal environment despite changes in external conditions.
- 16. A response that amplifies or increases the effect of a stimulus (e.g., blood clotting).
- 18. an organism that makes one sick
- 20. A structure composed of different tissues working together to perform complex functions (e.g., heart, lungs).
- 21. Undifferentiated cells that can develop into different types of specialized cells.
- 24. part of the cell cycle where the cell performs its job
- 25. cell division used by prokaryotic cells

- 1. A group of similar cells that work together to perform a specific function.
- 4. nonliving particle
- 5. A type of solution that has more water molecules than solute molecules
- 7. A group of organs that work together to perform major body functions (e.g., circulatory system, digestive system).
- 8. reproductive cells
- 9. A type of cell division that results in haploid cells.
- 11. Body system responsible for transporting oxygen and nutrients
- 12. body cells produced from mitosis
- 14. A type of solution that would cause water to move out of cells
- 15. A process in which a system regulates itself by monitoring its own output (includes negative and positive feedback).
- 17. Body system responsible for creating hormones
- 19. type of pathogen that can be treated with antibiotics
- 22. type of replication cycle where the DNA joins the hosts DNA
