Across
  1. 4. Organelles responsible for generating energy (ATP) through cellular respiration.
  2. 5. Organelles in plant cells where photosynthesis occurs, converting light energy into chemical energy.
  3. 9. Specialized structures within cells that perform specific functions (organs of the cell).
  4. 12. (2 words) The process by which cells develop specific structures and functions suited to their roles in multicellular organisms.
  5. 13. The central organelle that contains the genetic material (DNA) and controls the activities of the cell.
  6. 14. Cells that store excess energy in the form of fat molecules.
  7. 15. Blood cells that transport oxygen from the lungs to tissues throughout the body.
  8. 16. Cells found in bone tissue responsible for bone formation and maintenance.
  9. 17. The lens closest to the specimen, responsible for primary magnification.
  10. 19. Specialized cells found in plant leaves that control the opening and closing of stomata, regulating gas exchange and water loss.
  11. 24. (2 words) An optical instrument that uses visible light to magnify and observe specimens.
  12. 26. (2 words) The magnification achieved by multiplying the magnification of the objective lens by the magnification of the ocular lens.
  13. 29. (2 words) Cells that make up skeletal muscles, responsible for voluntary movement.
  14. 30. The process by which plants and some other organisms convert light energy into chemical energy (glucose).

  1. 1. The gel-like substance within cells where organelles are suspended and cellular processes occur.
  2. 2. (2 words) A rigid structure found in plant cells that provides support and protection.
  3. 3. Cellular structures where protein synthesis occurs.
  4. 5. (2 words) The semipermeable membrane surrounding the cytoplasm of a cell, controlling the movement of substances into and out of the cell.
  5. 6. Structures composed of multiple tissues that perform specific functions in the body.
  6. 7. (2 words) The process by which cells break down glucose molecules to produce ATP, releasing energy for cellular activities.
  7. 8. The lens closest to the eye, further magnifying the image produced by the objective lens.
  8. 10. words) The area visible through the microscope when looking at a specimen.
  9. 11. A membrane-bound organelle in plant and fungal cells that stores water, nutrients, and waste products.
  10. 18. (2 words) Cells found in involuntary muscles, such as the heart and digestive tract, responsible for involuntary movements.
  11. 20. (2 words) A group of organs that work together to carry out specific functions in the body.
  12. 21. A type of eukaryotic cell found in plants, characterized by the presence of cell walls and chloroplasts.
  13. 22. Specialized cells that transmit electrical signals throughout the body.
  14. 23. Blood cells that play a crucial role in the immune system, defending the body against pathogens.
  15. 25. A group of similar cells that work together to perform a particular function.
  16. 27. A type of eukaryotic cell found in animals, lacking cell walls and chloroplasts.
  17. 28. The basic structural and functional units of living organisms.
