- 2. the structure in a cell that contains the chromosomes. The nucleus has a membrane around it, and is where RNA is made from the DNA in the chromosomes
- 6. an organelle that helps cells divide, or make copies of themselves
- 8. an organelle within the cells of plants and certain algae that is the site of photosynthesis
- 13. membrane a thin layer of tissue that covers, lines, or separates parts of the body
- 15. it helps keep the shape
- 16. storage compartments for small amounts of water, food, and waste products
- 17. Their main job is to control the movement of things into and out of the cell,
- 20. best known for their role as powerhouses
Down
- 1. a membrane-bound sac inside a cell that stores various substances like water, food, or waste
- 3. a small organelle inside a cell that acts as the main hub for organizing microtubules
- 4. double-membrane organelles which are found in the cells of plants and algae
- 5. A stack of small flat sacs formed by membranes inside the cell's cytoplasm (gel-like fluid)
- 7. Vesicles are small cellular containers.
- 9. small vesicles, single membrane-bound organelles found in the eukaryotic cells.
- 10. a small, membrane-bound space inside a cell that stores water, food, or waste products,
- 11. the jelly-like fluid inside a cell that contains the cell's organelles
- 12. the structure in a cell that contains the chromosomes.
- 14. a collection of tubes that make, package, and transport proteins and fats.
- 18. the cellular machinery responsible for making proteins.
- 19. membrane-bound vesicles, formed via a complex family of processes collectively known as endocytosis, and found in the cytoplasm of virtually every animal cell.
