Across
- 3. Fine, threadlike proteins found in the cell's cytoskeleton
- 6. A network of fibers that holds the cell together, helps the cell to keep its shape, and aids in movement
- 10. Collapse of a walled cell's cytoplasm due to a lack of water
- 11. the rupturing of a cell due to excess internal pressure
- 12. Movement of molecules through the plasma membranes (typically opposite the dictates of osmosis or different) aided by a process that requires energy
- 13. Threadlike proteins in the cell's cytoskeleton that are roughly twice as thick as microfilaments
- 14. A solution in which the concentration of solutes is less than that of the cell which resides in the solution
- 15. A vacuole that holds that matter which a cell engulfs
- 16. A lipid in which one of the fatty acid molecules has been replaced by a molecules that contains a phosphate group
- 17. Spiral strands of protein molecules that form a tubelike structure
- 18. A solution in which the concentration of solutes is essentially equal to that of the cell which resides in the solution
- 20. Organelles that contain pigments used in photosynthesis
- 21. Vacuoles that contain the waste products of digestion
- 22. Cluster of DNA, RNA, and proteins in the nucleus of a cell
Down
- 1. The organelles where proteins and lipids are stored and then modified to suit the needs of the cell
- 2. Movement of molecules through the plasma membrane according to the dictates of osmosis or diffusion
- 4. A large vacuole that rests at the center of most plants cells and is filled with solution that contains a high concentration of solutes
- 5. Energy necessary to get a chemical reaction going
- 7. Vesicle formed at the plasma membrane to allow the absorption of large molecules
- 8. A solution in which the concentration of solutes is greater than that of the cell which resides in the solution
- 9. A vesicle that holds secretion products so that they can be transported to the plasma membrane and released
- 15. The process by which a cell engulfs foreign substances or other cells
- 19. A highly-porous membrane that separates the nucleus from the cytoplasm
