Across
  1. 5. Located near the nucleus and helps to organize cell division; not found in plant cells
  2. 8. Large, saclike, membrane-enclosed structure used for storage
  3. 10. Type of transport where materials move against a concentration difference; requires energy
  4. 12. The fluid portion of the cell outside the nucleus
  5. 14. Small organelles filled with enzymes that function as the cell's cleanup crew
  6. 15. The process of taking material into the cell by means of infoldings, or pockets in the cell membrane
  7. 18. Internal membrane system that helps with protein synthesis and the creation of membrane lipids
  8. 19. the process by which particles move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration
  9. 22. Cell that encloses its DNA in a nucleus and has membrane-bound organelles
  10. 23. Organelle that captures the energy from sunlight and converts it into food
  11. 25. Large membrane-enclosed structure that contains the cell’s genetic material
Down
  1. 1. Network of protein filaments; made of microtubules and microfilaments
  2. 2. Cell that has free-floating DNA and few organelles
  3. 3. Small particles of RNA and protein found throughout the cytoplasm in all cells
  4. 4. The diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane
  5. 6. Relatively constant internal physical and chemical conditions
  6. 7. Type of transport where movement of materials across the membrane doesn't require energy
  7. 9. Membrane of the vacuole surrounding the material fuses with the cell membrane, forcing the contents out of the cell
  8. 11. Type of diffusion in which molecules use protein channels to cross a membrane they wouldn't ordinarily be able to cross
  9. 13. Thin barrier surrounding a cell
  10. 16. Stack of flattened membranes that prepares substances for storage or removal from the cell
  11. 17. The powerhouse of the cell
  12. 20. Group of tissues working together
  13. 21. Strong supporting layer around the cell membrane
  14. 24. Group of cells that performs a similar function
