Across
- 2. provides the energy (ATP) via respiration to produce the proteins and drive metabolism
- 3. a process where cells use nutrients and convert it into energy
- 6. plants cells are usually of this shape
- 8. the smallest building blocks of a living organism
- 10. an example of a eukaryotic cell
- 11. surrounds the surface of the cell and controls what enters and exits the cell
- 14. consists of a single cell
- 15. cells lack membrane bound organelles
- 17. carry substances to where they need to go as they are able to get through the cell membrane
- 19. specialised cell structures (like tiny organs) with specific functions
- 20. animal cells are irregular in shape are are usually of this shape
- 21. All cells have vacuoles but plants have a large central vacuole. It stores nutrients, waste products, and water
Down
