Across
- 3. / (initials) has ribosomes attached to it; produces new membranes.
- 6. / provide a force perpendicular to the plasma membrane to move the cell
- 7. / only in animal cells; Help pull chromosome pairs apart to opposite ends of the cell
- 8. / the solar power packs- trap light and convert it into chemical energy
- 9. / an anchoring function that fastens cells together into strong sheets
- 13. / are the major component of the cell membrane
- 16. / organelle that makes proteins
- 18. / a protein that in addition to actin is part of the microfilaments
- 20. / channels that perforate plant cell walls
- 22. / the region between the plasma membrane and nucleus
- 23. / plants, animals, fungi and protists have this type of cell
- 24. / carry genes
- 25. / contains most of the cell’s genes in eukaryotic cells
- 26. / a supporting structure that is formed by microtubules and microfilaments
- 30. / set of “poker-chip-type’ of structure that forms the granum in choroplasts
- 31. / a sac of digestive enzymes; in animal cells only
- 33. / a junction that provides cytoplasmic channels between adjacent cells
- 34. / semifluid substance inside a cell
- 35. / (initials) lacks ribosomes on its surface; makes membrane lipids, destroys toxic substances
Down
- 1. / specialized metabolic compartments that produce hydrogen peroxide and convert it to water
- 2. / regulate the entry and exit of molecules from the nucleus
- 4. / American biologist that provided evidence that mitochondria and chloroplasts within cells were at one time free living cells themselves
- 5. / initials of a structure made out of glycoproteins such as collagen, proteoglycans and fibronectin in the cell
- 10. / a double twisted subunit that is part of the microfilaments in a cell
- 11. / Contains enzymes & pigments for Photosynthesis; Never in animal cells
- 12. / an apparatus that modifies, sorts and packages proteins
- 14. / Bacteria and Archaea have this type of cell
- 15. / sacs that bud from the ER, Golgi or plasma membrane; in plants, stores organic nutrients, absorbs water and have pigments that attract pollinators
- 17. / inner folding of the mitochondrion
- 19. / helps cell into a rowing motion parallel to the plasma membrane
- 21. / responsible of cell respiration (transforms sugars to ATP), has its own DNA
- 25. / this region contains the DNA in prokaryotic cells
- 27. / inside the nucleus; disappears when cell divides
- 28. / a motor protein that drives the bending movements of a cilium or flagellum
- 29. / inner space of the mitochondrion
- 32. / thick fluid within chloroplasts
