Across
- 5. Cells which lack internal membrane-bound structures such as a nucleus.
- 7. Organelle in eukaryotic cells with a series of highly folded membranes surrounded in cytoplasm; site of cellular chemical reactions; can either be rough (with ribosomes) or smooth (without ribosomes).
- 9. Chlorophyll-containing cell organelles found in cells of green plants and some protists; capture light energy from the sun, which is converted to chemical energy in food molecules.
- 11. Organelle in eukaryotic cells with a system of flattened tubular membranes; modifies proteins and sends them to their appropriate destinations.
- 12. Thin, solid protein fibers that provide structural support for eukaryotic cells.
- 13. Firm, fairly rigid structure located outside the plasma membrane of plants, fungi, most bacteria, and some protists; provides support and protection.
- 15. Membrane-bound fluid-filled space in the cytoplasm of plant cells used for the temporary storage of materials
Down
- 1. Cells which contain a true nucleus and membrane-bound organelles
- 2. Clear, gelatinous fluid in eukaryotic cells that suspends the cell's organelles and is the site of numerous chemical reactions.
- 3. Organelles in the nucleus where enzymes and other proteins are assembled.
- 4. Organelles that contain digestive enzymes; digest excess or worn out organelles, food particles, and engulfed viruses or bacteria.
- 6. Site in eukaryotic cell nucleus that produces ribosomes.
- 8. Cellular framework found within the cytoplasm composed of microtubules and microfilaments.
- 10. Eukaryotic membrane-bound organelles that transform energy stored in food molecules into ATP, an organism's energy storing molecule.
- 12. Thin, hollow cylinders made of protein that provide structural support for eukaryotic cells.
- 13. Serves as boundary between the cell and its environment; allows materials such as water and nutrients to enter and waste products to leave
- 14. In eukaryotic cells, the central membrane-bound organelle that manages cellular functions and contains DNA.
