Across
- 2. Helps produce protein for the cell.
- 7. forms when DNA coils tightly during division and assembles
- 8. centrioles are only found in this type of cell
- 9. known as the "microtubule organizing center"
- 12. inside chloroplasts and trap sunlight for energy
- 15. A round structure within the nucleus that produces ribosomes.
- 16. proteins made by the rough ER travel to the Golgi in sacks called this
- 17. the cell membrane is also called this
- 20. Surrounds and protects the nucleus.
- 22. The command center of the cell that contains DNA
- 23. has digestive enzymes that destroy damaged organelles and invaders.
- 24. Builds and transports substances through the cell; attached ribosomes on it's surface give it a rough texture.
- 25. the most basic unit of life
Down
- 1. the largest organelle in plant cells
- 3. the cell membrane has this property
- 4. Processes and packages materials for the cell.
- 5. term for the process of cell division
- 6. the process of making protein
- 10. Builds and transports substances through the cell; does not have attached ribosomes.
- 11. Jelly-like fluid that surrounds and protects the organelles.
- 13. A double layer that supports and protects the cell and only allows certain substances in and out.
- 14. Known as the "powerhouse” of the cell; breaks down food to produce energy in the form of ATP.
- 18. Stores food and water.
- 19. Gives shape and protection to plant cells.
- 21. converts sunlight into energy for plant cell and contains a green pigment called chlorophyll.
