Across
- 3. The genetic material of the nucleus
- 10. An organism that is made of 2 or more cells
- 15. The security screening for the cell (a wall that allows only certain things to enter)
- 16. Converts energy from the sun into food
- 18. Basically a container for DNA
- 20. Found in animal and human cells; builds parts for cytoskeleton
- 21. Organelles with a membrane surrounding them
- 23. Processes proteins made by ribosomes (also has its own ribosomes)
- 24. The areas where ribosomes are assembled
- 25. The factory for the cell (process fats and breaks down toxic substances in liver cells)
- 28. When unicellular organisms work together
- 29. The protein and RNA maker of a cell
- 30. A protective skin around the cell
- 31. An organelle who’s main job is to break things down
- 32. A system of fibers that acts as a skeleton for cells
Down
- 1. Storage room for starches, lipids, and protein
- 2. An organism with only one cell
- 4. Organs that work together for a common goal
- 5. Structure based on lipids including: hydrophilic(water-loving) and hydrophobic(water-fearing)
- 6. Post office of cell; receives substances from ER and packages them in vesicles
- 7. A tail-like extension that moves the cell
- 8. Contains pigments that help in photosynthesis (found inside chloroplast)
- 9. Powerhouse of cell; change sugar to usable energy for cell and has membrane which containsfolds(cristae)
- 11. A tail at the end of a cell that moves the cell
- 12. The theory that cells are the building blocks for living things and that new cells come from old cells
- 13. A netlike structure [in the cell]
- 14. Stores mostly water and maintains the water pressure in a cell
- 16. An outer shell for the cells in plants and bacteria
- 17. Brain of the cell (controls the cell and holds the DNA)
- 19. Tissues with similar jobs that work together
- 22. In simple terms, a cell’s own organs
- 26. Layers of cells that do similar jobs
- 27. Organelles without a membrane surrounding them
