  1. 3. structures that build spindles that will help separate chromosomes during cell division
  2. 4. multicellular eukaryotic organisms that have cell walls, chloroplasts, and are autotrophs; ex: Oak tree
  3. 6. structure found outside of a cell that aids in movement
  4. 8. multicellular eukaryotic organisms that lack cell walls and chloroplasts; ex: bear
  5. 9. composed of protein filaments that give internal shape and support to a cell
  6. 11. organelle that transports materials throughout the cell
  7. 13. rigid structure that provides shape and support for some cells
  8. 15. prokaryotic organism that is found in many environments and is microscopic; ex: E.coli
  9. 16. organelle that stores energy from the sun in food molecules (glucose)
  10. 18. prokaryotic organisms that tend to live in extreme environments
  11. 21. organelle composed of folded membranes that helps make lipids and detoxify
  12. 22. organelle containing enzymes that help to break down cell waste
  13. 23. eukaryotic organisms that have cell walls, but no chloroplasts - they’re heterotrophs; ex: yeast
  14. 24. groups of organisms that have no nucleus

  5. 10. organelle that converts food into a useable form of energy (ATP)
  6. 12. composed of a phospholipid bilayer that controls what enters and leaves a cell
  7. 14. organelle that stores the genetic information for eukaryotic cells
  8. 17. small, circular piece of DNA found in prokaryotes that do not contain genes necessary for survival
  9. 19. organelle that is responsible for the final modification, packaging, and shipment of proteins
  10. 20. groups of organisms that do have a nucleus
  11. 24. eukaryotic organisms that can be uni- or multicellular, some plant-like, animal-like, and fungi-like
