Across
- 2. membrane, highly porous membrane separating nucleus from the cytoplasm
- 4. reticulum, organelles composed of an extensive network of folded membranes that performs several tasks within a cell
- 6. holds cell's main DNA, often called the control center of the cell
- 9. double-membrane-bound organelles in which nutrients are converted to energy
- 11. found within the nuclear membrane, it is the center where RNA is made and ribosomes are assembled before being transported out of the nucleus
- 12. membrane, semipermeable membrane between the cell contents and the cell's surroundings
Down
- 1. paired organelles in animal cells that organize fibers required for cell division
- 3. apparatus, organelles where proteins and lipids are stored and then modified to suit the needs of the cell
- 5. organelle in animal cells responsible for hydrolysis reactions that break down proteins, carbohydrates, and some lipids
- 7. non-membrane-bound organelles responsible for protein synthesis
- 8. larger membrane-bound organelle used for storage of food, water, or waste
- 10. jellylike fluid inside cells in which organelles are suspended
