Across
- 3. stores cell sap
- 6. made out of cellulose, provides support and protection
- 9. the chemical reactions in cells that break down nutrient molecules and release energy for metabolism
- 10. taking in of materials for energy, growth and development; plants require light, carbon dioxide, water and ions; animals need organic compounds and ions and usually need water
- 11. organelle that contains DNA
- 13. an action by an organism or part of an organism causing a change of position or place
- 14. a permanent increase in size and dry mass by an increase in cell number or cell size or both
- 15. net movement of particles from a region of their higher concentration to a region of their lower concentration down a concentration gradient, as a result of their random movement
Down
- 1. the processes that make more of the same kind of organism
- 2. where the majority of metabolic reactions take place
- 4. the ability to detect or sense stimuli in the internal or external environment and to make appropriate responses
- 5. net movement of water molecules from a region of higher water potential (dilute solution) to a region of lower water potential (concentrated solution), through a partially permeable membrane.
- 7. controls what goes in and out of the cell
- 8. contains chlorophyll
- 12. removal from organisms of the waste products of metabolism (chemical reactions in cells including respiration), toxic materials, and substances in excess of requirements
