Across
- 5. an organelle found in most eukaryotic cells. Part of the endomembrane system in the cytoplasm, it packages proteins into membrane-bound vesicles inside the cell before the vesicles are sent to their destination.
- 6. an organelle found in large numbers in most cells, in which the biochemical processes of respiration and energy production occur.
- 8. membrane-bound organelle occurring in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells
- 9. a space or vesicle within the cytoplasm of a cell, enclosed by a membrane and typically containing fluid.
Down
- 1. series of connected flattened sacs, part of a continuous membrane organelle within the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells, that plays a central role in the synthesis of proteins.
- 2. a minute cylindrical organelle near the nucleus in animal cells, occurring in pairs and involved in the development of spindle fibers in cell division.
- 3. the gelatinous liquid that fills the inside of a cell. It is composed of water, salts, and various organic molecules.
- 4. a minute particle consisting of RNA and associated proteins found in large numbers in the cytoplasm of living cells. They bind messenger RNA and transfer RNA to synthesize polypeptides and proteins.
- 7. a membrane-bound organelle that contains the cell's chromosomes.
